Personally, I take issue with anyone tying up the judicial system with frivolous lawsuits.
Yeah, that's why MSU folks are up in arms about it, I'm sure.
Nothing frivolous about the lawsuit. One of two things will happen:
1. Lewis and Kobe will publicly recant their statements and issue a public apology
2. Lewis and Kobe will be f*cked when they are sitting in front of a Lafayette County jury and explain conflicting statements that are easily proven to be false.
Make no mistake - the lawsuit has teeth. I personally wish no ill will on those two kids. They're just dumb kids and I think whoever prodded them should be the ones held responsible.

Again I ask, How do you know that SA#39s testimony has any holes in it?
Read the OM response. There is an entire section explaining how OM was never allowed to interview #39 and when they asked his college coach, they were denied permission. They claim that they weren't even allowed to sit in on 2 of the 3 interviews.
They admit that #39s testimony regarding Allegation #14 is credible and corroborated by other testimony. So he WAS credible, just not in the case of Mr. Merkels client? Even though Mr. Merkel nor OM ever interviewed #39.
This lawsuit will never darken the door of a courthouse, and everybody with an IQ over room temperature knows it.

Neither of those things are happening. You forget this is a civil law suit, or you don't know the differences in civil vs criminal cases.
Also, your assumption that the changes in minor details will be seen as pertinent to the core of the case. You additionally assume the minor detail changes make the major allegations false.
Defamation in this case requires proof that the comments were A) false, and B) were the cause of financial harm. Given that the NCAA has long been investigating Ole Miss, your season sucked, your recruiting class sucked, and your immediate future looks bleak, there are any number of factors that could contribute to potential revenue loss. Good luck proving that RR's revenue loss is tied to the private testimony of 3 indiviuals.
Commercial Disparagement would require proof that the testimony of Lewis and Kobe (and Tunsil's step dad) was made for purposes of harming the specific business. Good luck with that one.
Civil Conspiracy is going to require the plaintiff to show evidence that these individuals conspired NOT to bring down Ole Miss, but to cause financial harm to RR. Again, good luck with that one.
