Most noticeable thing I see is that he's not dropping his hands anymore.

He meant 10 million for 150 years

Irrelevant since Ole Miss got the 2nd year bowl ban. Any player that wishes to transfer and to be immediately eligible to play next year can apply for a waiver, which will likely be granted by the NCAA. Shea Patterson will be the only major loss due to the bowl ban thing. He's a big loss, but it's not as devastating for Ole Miss as one might think. When he went down his replacement, a Hawaiian kid named Jordan Ta'amu stepped up and played much better than Patterson did. Ole Miss has him for another two years. Patterson will be at Michigan next year, fwiw. There's a conspiracy theory out there that Ole Miss got the 2nd year bowl ban because the NCAA wanted to kick this "I want a transfer because I was misled" issue down the road. Thus, by giving the 2nd year ban, this allows the NCAA to skirt the issue. The theory is that when Ole Miss appeals the ban, they'll win and have that ban removed, but by then the players that wanted to leave will have already left. The reason many think they're likely to win that appeal is because there are no other instances in recent memory where the NCAA gave a school a two year bowl ban but didn't hit them hard anywhere else. If you look at the past instances where schools received a 2+ year ban, that punishment was accompanied with devastating scholarship reductions, etc. Ole Miss basically got off very light except for the 2nd year ban, which most commentators feel is very strange. But that's tin-foil hat stuff. Who knows...

Jealous. Rose Bowl is a bucket list for most CFB fans

Good to see they finally wised up and put the semi-finals on New Years Day. Putting them on New Years Eve was stupid as hell.

Bahaha stupid SEC! SEC! SEC! Hope Clemson drums them

That might not have been enough style points for them to jump Bama.

lol Richt went for a FG down 38. Grow a pair. Jesus.

Trashiest fanbase in college football

my bad. An SEC school just blown to kingdom come by the NCAA. Guess that isn't significant enough to discuss in a college football thread. probably not worthy of the championship week thread that's fair

Nah this is the OMC talks about Ole Miss thread. my bad. An SEC school just blown to kingdom come by the NCAA. Guess that isn't significant enough to discuss in a college football thread.

I am reading that Ole Miss players can transfer without penalty. Fake news? Only rising seniors.

These sanctions are strange. Usually a 2 year bowl ban carries with it far more scholarships than just 13. Ole Miss has already self-imposed a 1 year ban and has already self imposed 11 scholarship losses over the past 3 seasons. Thus, after this 2018 recruiting class in February (where they will impose the final 2 scholarship losses) and the 2018 bowl season, the punishment is essentially over.

the ultimate little brother

You got that right. So the grand total of impermissible benefits in the Ole Miss case *drumroll*.... $5,600, and none of that was pay for play. It was two players keeping a loaner car out for a month too long, car rides, a player sleeping on Kiffin's couch (they said this was only valued at $27), two players EIGHT years ago getting help on their ACT under Houston Nutt, a player hunting on the land of a booster twice, the stepfather of a recruit getting a free night at a hotel, and a baseball booster who runs the FCA in Memphis giving a 2-star recruit a ride to a bowl game. Meanwhile at Alabama...

2 year bowl ban for Ole Miss, 13 scholarships, vacated wins, and multi-year show causes for the five coaches named in the allegations. Jeez. What's amazing is that Ole Miss took the approach of "exemplary cooperation" with the NCAA. Of the 21 allegations, 17 were self-reported by our own compliance department. Let that be a lesson to any school when the NCAA shows up: do what Auburn and others have done, give them the double birds and tell them to eff off. Chris Kiffin (Lane's brother) got a 2 year show cause because he allowed Laremy Tunsil to sleep on his couch one night. Tunsil wasn't a recruit or a commit. He was a current player at the time. THAT gets you a 2 year show cause. The NCAA is a joke.

https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2017/11/30/16719208/ole-miss-ncaa-enforcement-ruling-mississippi-state-leo-lewis Millions of dollars spent, multiple recruiting classes destroyed, and years of investigation against Ole Miss chiefly because a Mississippi State LB claimed in an immunity interview with the NCAA that Ole Miss boosters paid him $10,000 the day before signing day. Well, it turns out that he made it all up at the request of Dan Mullen when a video surfaced the day of signing day showing Lewis flaunting all his cash. Mullen apparently came up with the idea that, in the event the NCAA ever came sniffing about that video, they'd need to deflect it onto someone else. When Lewis went to Ole Miss' NCAA hearing, he admitted it was actually Mississippi State who paid him.

Ole Miss gets their sanctions tomorrow. If Freeze doesn’t get a show cause, wonder if TN would show interest.

Tennessee needs to get Neal Brown and never look back. Brown is going to be a star.
