As someone who has believed for many years that great players are getting paid in college football, can anyone explain something: if Tunsil (one of the best recruits in the country in 2013) was paid money (real money, big money) to come to Ole Miss, why has Lyndsey Miller not said something about it when he has spilled everything he has and literally hates Tunsil and Ole Miss at this point?

I'm just trying to figure this out in my mind. Any thoughts?

He was paid in malt liquor and Newports.

Ask yourself this question - Why did Tunsil commit to OleMiss w/out even setting foot on campus?

Logic is not your spirit animal. Lindsey Miller said Tun$il was receiving Western Union cash deliveries while he was still in HS from Miss BlackBears

A trashy braindead girl from out of state got a scholarship to Ole Miss... Taking the spot that would have gone to a hard working Mississippi girl who needed it. Funded by MS taxpayers.

It's not a zero sum game. If you qualify for admissions or for scholarships, you get them. They're administered on a quantifiable basis. No one took a spot from anyone.

It wasnt a zero sum game for Tunsil either, apparently. His sum exceeded zero.

True question for real answer.

Why would a top recruit want to come to a school who has been average to below average and had just recently come off of an abysmal year? On top of that, the new head coach at this school is a no name with nothing to show. Then you add in the fact that it's a school in a pretty rural part of Mississippi. Now add that it wasn't just one top recruit, it was several top recruits. An accomplishment this school had never done before. Now add in that these are black recruits going to a historically racist school.

I get that Oxford is not a completely shitty, dingy town. As far as Mississippi goes, it's a fairly nice, mostly quiet town, but it's still a town in Mississippi. What does Mississippi have to offer a young black man honestly?

I could understand pulling a top recruit here and there, but that many, pretty much overnight?

coaches from other schools know full well what's going on. It's become apparent according to several media outlets that there are a lot of coaches unhappy with OM right now. Some of this could very well be chalked up to "sour grapes". There probably are a few that are pissed solely because OM beat them, but it sounds like there are even coaches from teams that OM never plays that are unhappy with something that OM is doing right now. According to the media outlets, it's an unprecedented amount of unhappy coaches. You have to ask yourself why these coaches who haven't and likely won't play OM are so unhappy with something that is going on at OM.

I sleep on the floor of a tent every night. Freeze making 4.5 million probably has it pretty good...
