If they're real, they're at least irrelevant to his NFL future, unlike weed. I couldn't care less. This is just a fascinating story overall Yeah, it's an ongoing saga. I suspect that MS State fans are behind this due to their trolling about having something they were going to release. However, it could be his estranged step-father. Last year, his step-father, a real loser to begin with, kept trying to push a certain agent onto Tunsil and Tunsil didn't want it. Obviously the sports agency tried to get an in through the step-father and it didn't work out. So an argument ensued and the step-father allegedly assaulted Tunsil's mom. Tunsil defended her and pulled him off his mom and probably roughed him up a bit. The next day Tunsil's step-father files an assault suit against him. At the hearing he shows up wearing one of Tunsil's OT knee braces and walking with a cane. He defends himself in the courtroom. Ole Miss hired one of the top lawyers in the south and it was a real joke of a hearing and it was tossed because the step-father couldn't show any actual injuries. This step-father then demanded and received a meeting with the NCAA to discuss improper benefits that Tunsil received during his recruitment. Fast forward to last week and his step-father, with a lawyer from Starkville (huge surprise) representing him, has filed a defamation of character suit against Tunsil. An obvious cash-grab. Bottom line is this: the step-father has been cut out of the gravy train and now is trying to extort Tunsil or otherwise get some blood from him.
