You are right about letting the court system into your life. I found out the hard way during a divorce. A contract is pretty much black and white to a judge. It doesn't matter if it seems fricked up and common sense does not apply.

Yes - that is why people control things through contracts.

The wife says that we committed to a verbal contract during our marriage - before many witnesses and that divorce was never mentioned as an acceptable means of ending the contract. She does point out that we agreed to "until death do us part" and that she is perfectly willing to kill me to do her part to end the contract if necessary.

I will say that she is knowledgeable in the use of firearms, an excellent shot and a serious believer in telling the truth.

I am not the biggest Houston Dale Nutt fan on the planet to put it mildly, but in this case he is not only legally right to put the weenie to Ole Miss... he is morally right to do it.

I have no doubt that some violations happened while Nutt was there and he should take the rap for them. Ole Miss, however, blamed him for things that happened well after Nutt was gone.

If I shoplift from a store, that is on me. If someone comes into the store after me and sets the sales clerk on fire they don't get to blame that one on me thank you.

Public Relations people should study this for decades to come as an example of how not to handle PR crisis. Everything that Ole Miss could do wrong, they've managed to do. It is breath taking in the totality of their foul ups at this point. By now you'd assume they would have done something right by sheer accident.

If you think Nutt is a psychopath but give your current head coach a pass then you are the dumbest dude here.

I don't know if Nutt will or should win the lawsuit, but do the OM fans here not care that Freeze lied to journalists and recuits?

When the journalists reported 'sources' we knew then the sources were lying, but had no idea it was actually Freeze.

I also figured there's no way of figuring out who the source was, but Nutt did and it's all there in Nutt's allegations with dates and phone calls and word-for-word tweets.

At the time, I didn't think it mattered who the source was after the info was shown later to be lies. However,that the source was Freeze is huge because it fits with what he publicly told the press and privately told recruits.

FYI..Just so you know

Nutt has no case against Ole Miss. Had he actually filed the defamation lawsuit when the reporters were stating everything they were getting from "sources" to the public he may have had a valid claim. What he did instead was, while being an a-hole was allow the statute of limitations to run out. Mississippi law only allows you 1 year to file a defamation libel/slander lawsuit from the first known verbal / written defamatory statement or action.
Miss. Code § 15-1-35, Libel/Slander: 1 year

Also, written contracts have a 3 year statute of limitations from the end of the agreed upon terms. Ole Miss made the final lump some buyout on Nutt's severance agreement in 2013...

Well actually, what you're talking about is quite different than the previous homeowner's silly disparagement claim. But good try.

It's amazing that people from a law school have no idea about "law". It hasn't been nearly a year since the final evidence of it being Freeze was uncovered.

Looks like the case will be dismissed in the next month. Bjorks' original PR statement the day after the Forde article has been re-released. Nutt never mentioned.

No judge in America would dismiss this case.

Read the law. It has nothing to do with the final evidence of anything. It has to do with discovery of initial defamatory remarks. Forde releases his article Oct 2014. NCAA NOA is released from OM Feb 2016. The evidence supporting the defamation accusations in the lawsuit are from Jan 2016. OM release NOA response May 2016. The defamation evidence initially started in Oct 2014 with the Forde article, then from all the journalist quotes in Jan 2016, then the NOA release Feb 2016 showed evidence that not all or majority of infractions were from Nutt's tenure. With that said a judge will have to consider either Jan 2016 as the start of the libel/ slander or Feb 2016. Even if he wanted to be liberal with the time frame and push it out until May 2016 when OM released its reponse it is still over 1 year.

Also Houston quoted from the Dan Patrick Show August 23, 2016

“The last two years, especially last year with 30 jobs open, I thought for sure i’m going to get back in,” Nutt said. “I'm ready to go. But calls didn’t come and there were a bunch of jobs open and I’m not talking about SEC jobs, even a lower level, so you just kind of lose a little bit of hope there.”

You can keep running that dick sucker under your nose but the suit isn't gonna be dropped. And all that garbage you just wasted your time posting doesn't make anyone think you are a genius. Many lawyers, actual experienced lawyers have already analyzed tgevhell out of this suit and the idea of it being dismissed isn't even a possibility. Maybe if you're lucky, Nutt settles. If he is feeling generous.

Houston Nutt's attorney has requested all phone call records from 2012 on. He will get them too. HF is an employee of the state of mississippi and is subject to the release of this info. He's a good attorney. OM and Freeze F***ed

I thought Nutt already had possession of the phone records when Freeze contacted journalists? And doesn't Steve Robertson also have them?

yeah but this is more. Nutt's attorney also just hired a guy that specializes in investigative work, corporate espionage, finding terrorists, kidnappings that type stuff... His name is Fred Burton and he is world renowned.

at least that's what i'm hearing from someone. i could be wrong though... dey screwed tho
