I think this is a civil case.
Yes, this is a civil case and #the Network will settle this well before we get to depositions. There will never be anything public come out of any of this. Miller found him a Honey hole and he finna get paid. Do you really think Ole Miss boosters are going to allow Hugh Freeze to be deposed? By a lawyer from Starkville, MS in the court of a judge who who has an undergrad degree from MS State? Think about that for a minute.
They'll let Hugh preach at the Pinelake church chain and let him keep the donations and they'll make Auburn's love offering to the Holy Zion Temple of Deliverance look like chump change.
And------"they" ('cause it's more than just Ole Miss) have succeeded in doing what they were trying to do----all focus has been lost from the original and most egregious charge, academic fraud. They shocked you with a video of a college student smoking dope----not shocking, but they got the nation's attention. Then they took some texts and made them look for all the world like Ole Miss is paying players out of the athletic department ---kind of like Auburn did back in the day---nobody is that stupid. But we can't quit watching.
We have all gotten so tied up in what might happen next that we have forgotten the NCAA has Ole Miss dead to rights on ACT score fixing. Sarge Saunders can tie it back all the way to Tommy Tuberville. If it makes it to Tuberville, that puts it inside the window of probation when Ole Miss was forced to fire Billy Brewer for some of the same kinds of stuff we are hearing about again, 20 years later and 30 years later (Ole Miss was placed on probation in 1986 and 1994). The NCAA doesn't need any of this new stuff to do what they know needs to be done.
If Saunders ties those things together, there is enough in the academic fraud alone to shut the thing down should the NCAA choose to.
30 consecutive years of lack of institutional control across six different coaching staffs? What will they do?
The Tunsil stuff is a good way to pass the time but nothing will come of it except Miller walks off with a boatload of Ole Miss's money. Good for him.
