Shortly after those tweets were posted, Ole Miss officials released public apologies. Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter wasn't happy...

quote:
“These tweets were unfortunate and not who we are in Ole Miss athletics,” Carter told ESPN. “When I found out about them, they were immediately taken down. I have spoken with [Liberty athletic director] Ian McCaw to relay my sincere apology. We will work to do better in the future.”

Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin also commented on this situation...

quote:
“I have no affiliation with the Ole Miss football Twitter site, even though it may sound strange, and I first learned about the tweets after my press conference when Keith Carter told me about them,” Kiffin said, via ESPN. “I’m completely embarrassed that anyone would put something out there like that making it look like it was a part of Ole Miss football. It was extremely disrespectful, bush league and classless, and I apologize, even though I had nothing to do with it, to Liberty and Hugh Freeze.”

As an OM fan it's a little much but don't delete it and reverse course. Literally everyone else had a chance to make Hugh Freeze jokes. Not sure why OM can't. Either way don't tweet and delete.

I hope Jason List is still their marketing lead and somehow involved. Douchiest guy associated with the Rebels ever (ack the boldness of the statement). Put Paris in the lead, great dude who has suffered enough under a grade A a-hole
