Maybe nothing in terms of sanctions, but the Wild West days are over for Ole Miss.

No way they are brazen enough to keep up their rampant cheating with NCAA up their arse.

So the days of top 10 classes and out of state 5* are over. We'll have to see what Freeze does identifying and developing instead of buying. I doubt it ends well for him.

I feel certain that the same happens at LSU - but I don't personally know of boosters doing so. I do know of one for OM. He is pretty unabashed about it as well.

FSU is more than a current powerhouse. They have been kicking arse since the 1990s. As a program, they DOMINATE Ole Miss on the numbers:



It isn't even close.

One thing they need to force Ole Miss to do is take down the 2003 Co Champions Banner

I don't know, I think the plan from the start has been to call the NCAA on their bluff. I think Ole Miss will pretend its all ok and the problem was a leaky ship and not the fact its a fricking pirate ship.

It will take outside pressure- ie Bama reporters making life hell for their recruits- to cause a change on NSD.

I think this is what we know:

We also know that Jennifer Coney refuted the insinuation that Ole Miss offered Rashan Gary and Gregory Little money or other improper benefits.

Things That Are Irrefutable: - Freeze arrived on campus and has recruited better than any OM coach in history - even before he had any on the field success to speak of;

Not exactly. His 2012 recruiting class was humdrum. With that class and his predecessor's recruits, Freeze took a 2-10 team to a 7-6 record. That turnaround played a significant role in landing the highly touted 2013 class.

I think they have a recruiting class ranked in the 50's right now. It's early sure, but they won't stay the course they've been on. I don't think they ever intended to throw it in the NCAA's face. They intended to hide it.

Ole Miss is the wrong program to do what you say. They aren't a sheltered blue blood, and they are high enough profile to make an example of.

Yeah, that must have been what it was. Never mind the fact that there was no excuse to ever be 2 and 10 as an SEC team.

That is all true. That said, Tunsil still has to be considered an outlier type of recruit for OM. And...he has had to sit for improper benefits. And...his text messages and confirmation of the message seems to also indicate improper benefits.

Again, nothing we know for certain, but when you start connecting dots, they connect really easily.

And that 2013 class included a certain 5 star recruit that at signing day had never set foot on the OleMiss campus

You can use that point to strengthen the argument that he started paying players.

So you agree. Minnesota is a blue blood.

Oh yeah, they intended to hide in via buy-in from the whole community. Ole Miss figured out the flaw in the NCAA system is the whole self-enforcement thing. They thought if everyone agreed to stay quiet it would stay under wraps, and if the NCAA can't get anyone to testify then there is no case. It took a weak moment at the NFL draft to shatter that silence.

From their perspective the problem isn't that they cheated, the problem is they got caught.

I don't disagree with that, but you have to understand their motivation.

This is a program that has been beaten down ever since integration. Until Freeze Ole Miss had not beaten Alabama more than 10 times in their ENTIRE history.

I think they saw the reality of the situation, the reality of the caste system that is college football, and said "either we cheat or we suck. Punishment or not let's cheat so we have someone to be proud of before they take it from us again." Freedom is another word for nothing left to lose.

I admire them actually, college football is a bullshite caste system and cheating is probably the only equalizer. I wish my program had that luxury, but in our state someone would dig up the dirt for the NCAA and rub their noses in it just to stop us.
