OXFORD — Former Ole Miss offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil faces another lawsuit from his stepfather, Lindsey Miller, just days before Tunsil is expected to be taken early in the NFL draft.

A lawsuit filed late Tuesday at the Lafayette County Courthouse by Starkville attorney Matthew Wilson, who represents Miller, alleges that Tunsil attacked Miller last June and that Tunsil defamed Miller’s character. The lawsuit alleges these two things were an “intentional infliction of emotional distress.”


quote:

According to the lawsuit, Polingo and Miller had a “heated conversation” about Tunsil’s relationship with agents but that it ended when Polingo walked outside. The lawsuit alleges that Tunsil then “rushed inside the house and, without legal justification, violently attacked” Miller.


quote:

The lawsuit also requests depositions to be taken from Freeze, offensive line coach Matt Luke and assistant athletic director John Miller before the limitations period expires on June 28.

The lawsuit requests Freeze’s deposition because it alleges Tunsil discussed the situation with Freeze and then “Coach Freeze and (an) anonymous source effectively announced to millions of people via a national cable network (ESPN) that Mr. Miller had assaulted his wife.”

Luke and Miller were requested because they took Tunsil to the sheriff’s office last June and “may have independent knowledge of the facts of this matter.”

Just in time for Tunsil to sign a fat contract that he can use to settle with this guy......

Must just be a coincidence.

What a money grubbing pos lol and your already close enough to him or his mother that if you're a decent guy you'll more then likely be taken care of

I'm guessing he's a prick so he has to take this route

Judge already threw the following items out of the lawsuit.

1. Mississippi State would be allowed to beat Ole Miss in football
2. Freeze would be required to convert to Scientology
3. The University of Mississippi would be evicted from MSU fans heads

The mother would have just as strong a reason, if not stronger, not to bear witness against her own child vs. her current husband. So many conflicts of interest.

I guess there is no way the stepfather was giving Tunsil sound advice, and the true leeches are the agents.

The fact that the Ole Miss coaches implied Tunsil beat up his stepdad to protect his mother, rather than so he could clown around with agent money, cars and hoes just can't be the reason Tunsil went mad dog.

Stepdad should probably sue the agents though.

Was it ever proven that Miller assaulted Tunsil's mother?

If he did, then pin a medal on Tunsil.

But if he didn't, that's defamation of character and he should sue the living shite out of Tunsil, Freeze, Luke and John Miller.

And there's no way Tunsil's story is true? Both stories make them out to be perfect angels, which we all know isn't true on either side.

Tunsil and his lawyers will have their answer soon enough. Although, that shite about having Freeze and Matt Luke deposed is laughable.

Wouldn't there be a domestic violence charge against him on record somewhere?

Wasn't this all resolved before last football season (with the resolution basically being Stepfather GTFO?)

How is this new suit any different?

And for crying out loud, -WHY- do this just before the draft, where it may lower your stepson's draft status and thus lead to a loss of money? (I don't think this will actually affect Tunsil's draft status, but why take a chance?)

I have to side with the blackbears on this, the stepfather seems like a POS.

Exactly. This piece of shite was caught lying in court last year and people laughed him out of the damn state. Now he is trying to sue again? All he is doing is trying to leach off Tunsil and damage him as much as he can.

The dude is a POS - if it weren't for him I doubt the whole car/agent crap would have ever seen the light of day. It's like he has daggars for Tunsil and wants to ruin him at every turn. Why do this to a young person?

Has the mom divorced him yet?
