Time Line----September 2012
Ole Miss fires its new women's basketball coach and two new assistants for academic fraud. It also rescinds the scholarships of two Junior College players who are already in enrolled in school.
A new football player, a walk-on from Huffman, Alabama, Carlos Davis, starts in September and is self reported after the season over his ACT score. He was being investigated by the NCAA and the Clearing House as he enrolled as a walk-on because of a ten point swing in English on his ACT score. He participated in 6 games as a true freshman walk-on in 2012. Because he was a walk-on, Ole Miss was not held accountable for knowing about the problems---Davis was "just" a walk-on. Do any of you remember Davis or his recruitment? I just can't imagine walking on and paying my own way, out of state, if I was as good as Davis seems to be. Or maybe everyone except David Saunders knew he couldn't get in school.
After the firing of the women's basketball coaches, Ole Miss self reports Davis's academic fraud. Still a debate over whether the women's basketball was a self report or the NCAA had been watching the players in question for two years and Ole Miss found Davis during their review.

It was him----not us.
“The University respectfully submits that this occurrence was isolated and inadvertent, did not result in any recruiting or competitive advantage and is not indicative of any pattern of conduct with any of the University sport programs or the Athletics Department overall,” Ole Miss senior associate athletics director for compliance Matt Ball wrote in a letter to the SEC to explain the violation.
Here is Ball's bio----

Trained at such bastions of compliance as Baylor, Oklahoma, and Tennessee.
That filing is from January 2013. In February, 2013, we have this story:

And whatever happened to those e-mails that were sent to Hugh?

February 2013 is the class of Laremy Tunsil, Tony Conner, Robert Nkemdiechi, and LaQuan Treadwell.
It is also the class that got the track coach in trouble.

His resignation came approximately six months after this story----

So, we have women's basketball, track, and football---sounds to me like it is -----
