I could be wrong but I don't think OM is going to find many character witnesses to speak up and plead for mercy on their behalf. SEC is cut throat and everyone in the West in particular will be happy to see them eliminated from serious contention for a few years....or more. Indeed. OM went head to head with Urban Meyer at OSU and Dabo Swinney at CU.....Those coaches won't be willing to help Hugh Freeze either. He is SOL if he's hoping another program comes to his defense.

aufan57 922 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Houston Nutt suing Ole Miss and its Athletic Foundation Quote Former Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt has filed a lawsuit against Ole Miss along with the university's athletics foundation and Board of Trustees on Wednesday for breaching its 2011 severance agreement. Specifically, Nutt's lawsuit claims that current Rebels coach Hugh Freeze and athletic director Ross Bjork created a "false narrative" of Nutt's alleged involvement in the university's ongoing case with the NCAA. Nutt, who coached at Ole Miss from 2008-11, is seeking punitive damages for what he calls a "smear campaign" against him. The lawsuit, which can be read in its entirety here, goes particularly deep into the school's alleged efforts to pin its NCAA investigation largely on Nutt. It claims "certain members of the Ole MissControl Group, Coach Freeze, AD Bjork, and [associate AD Kyle] Campbell reached an agreement in 2014 to carry out carefully orchestrated misinformation campaign, the specific purpose of which was to mislead the media, Ole Miss boosters, and potential recruiting prospects about the true nature of the matters that were being investigated by the NCAA." The suit also takes a stance on the stories that developed following the Notice of Allegations. Pat Forde of Yahoo Sports reports "Citing phone records obtained from the school, the suit details numerous 'off the record' communications in January '16 from Freeze and Bjork to media members that allegedly influenced reporting on the NOA, resulting in stories and social media posts that portrayed the violations as having primarily occurred during Nutt's tenure." However, when the NOA was made public, a majority of the allegations were found to have happened under Freeze. In all, Ole Miss has been accused of 21 violations football program, some of which the school has acknowledged. However, it has fought the lack of institutional control charge and has been a public supporter of Freeze in a possible failure to monitor situation. Freeze is scheduled to speak at SEC Media Days on Thursday. He was already expected to be asked about the ongoing NCAA situation anyway -- the university is expected to appear in front of the NCAA's committee on infractions later this year -- but now, the lawsuit and the NCAA case will almost certainly be the No. 1 topic of questioning. http://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/houston-nutt-files-lawsuit-against-ole-miss-and-its-athletics-foundation/ Here is a direct link to the lawsuit.

AlaskanFAN 1,666 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Freeze will pass all questions about the NCAA stuff and say the school is handling It, while he is there to just talk about 2017-18 football. JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravejd 3,270 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 my initial thought when seeing the lawsuit was that i guess Nutt has given up any hope of getting another head coaching job. No way someone would hire him after he sues an old employer but he probably wasn't getting one anyway.....but really its been 6 years why the long wait to sue? They can't still be running a smear campaign against him can they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 This will certainly damn the NCAA investigation just like the Nevin Shapiro trial blew up the case against Miami. Some how, some way Mark Emmert's clowns will figure out a way to use this to completely screw the pooch. Good grief when will we learn? And the Laremy Tunsil three ring circus of draft night '16 still doesn't even figure into any of this. But if the NCAA waits long enough to show a pulse on this the damage will eventually be done. Just like Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The investigation is over, the NCAA laid out the allegations, OleMiss reciprocated with their defense of the allegations, the NCAA will review OM's response and now OleMiss is on the docket to meet with the NCAA's COI for sentencing. How do any of these outside civil lawsuits (Rebel Rags & Houston Nutt's) have an impact on the NCAA case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
