Leo Lewis Deal is Bad for the SEC

Ole Miss cheated. I'm not defending them, but I don't like this Leo Lewis deal at all.
A player getting immunity to snitch on a rival school opens the door to a lot of problems. I could easily see a desperate coach getting a player on his team to make up a story about a rival to try to save his job. Let's not become the Southwest Conference here.

He's not the only player to get immunity there was a kid from Bama, Auburn, and Georgia ive heard.

It's really bad for Bama. Agreed.

Please stop posting about immunity until you have some semblance of an idea about what it entails. This is getting embarrassing

The thing you have to remember is that Leo Lewis didn't start this investigation. It was just a side effect of the investigation already going on.

The people who think this is the first time that a player has given the NCAA testimony about another schools recruitment is naive as frick

This isn't a "new precedent". OM players were used vs MSU during the Sherrill years. I've heard it reported (I think Wolken stated this in an on air interview) that the same has happened with Bama and Auburn in the past.

What about a recruit misleading a school about his intentions of being an early enrollee, even going so far as to sign financial aid documents, then backing out at the last minute and signing with a divisional foe? Which school should be punished? The one who acted in good faith or the one who engaged in blatant douchebaggery?

How does nobody on here know how the immunity deals work?
The NCAA investigates a school. They gather evidence that suggests a violation occurred. They interview people. They get lied to. THEN they offer immunity to a kid at another school, to determine whether or not they were lied to.
None of the violations are based solely on the testimony of these immunity cases. They are based on evidence and confirmed by the testimony. And it doesn't work asking kids of the school you are investigating because A) they'd be more likely to lie to you and B) if they offer immunity to the kid, they can't charge the school with their findings.

First of all, the story wasn't made up. If the NCAA didn't have proof that what Leo said was true, OM wouldn't have an issue. Therefore any school with clean hands has nothing to worry about.

Every school has dirt. This could open the floodgates

We are about to go scorched earth, bringing everyone down with us.
The bagmen all have dirt on each other in this conference as well as coaching staffs.
Hope your programs are clean which of course they are...
Bombs about to be dropped, Godfrey saying sec coaches have some fear of this situation
You think our players don't want to talk now about other schools?

I agree, but this is karma for Ole Miss because they had a player snitch on Mississippi State in the past.

You do know that the NCAA has been giving immunity during investigations for a long, long, time right?
Of course you did. There's no way you think this was a new, first time thing. You're smarter than those Ole Miss posters who were saying it was the first time only to be shown dozens of examples where it happened in past cases.

I assume he provided proof beyond just his word

easily? You serious? This is a stretch.

Of course it's bad. It's a house of cards and Ole Miss is but one room. Sankey isn't having a great couple of years on the job.
