I'm sure that is is NOT "Collateral" with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx.

Cruise DOES shoot a guy who falls through a window and ONTO the roof of Jame Foxx's cab - that's how Jamie gets dragged in. (Even though it's later I like this as an inciting incident much better than the passive act of allowing Cruise's character to climb into his cab.
Correct, it wasn't Collateral for sure. That murder scene was the only one I think where someone went out the window and Selma you was correct, that was the first murder of the movie. I can't help on the movie you're talking about though.

And finally one of the Ole Miss media guys has chimed in and asked the correct question-------what in the world is a lawyer from Jackson doing talking to a 17 year old kid in Brookhaven? Must have been catching up on the latest hip-hop trends. Why would there ever be any situation when you would think that would be OK? And meeting up with him while driving a red Hummer? Thanks, Neal!

It's behind a pay wall, unfortunately. Any chance you could quote the most notable selections?
Noticed that when I went back to get some quotes.

Pretty much - Ross Bjork acknowledges that the escort service called was not alone. OM looked at his phone log and found several other "numbers that when you Google them pull up similar type websites, services, however you would describe them," especially during peak recruiting season (December-February).

They even matched some of the phone calls (the one Thomas Mars found being one) with his plane log for recruiting trips.

The question then becomes - was he getting escorts for himself while out of town or for the recruits he was visiting? Most likely, himself.

That is what Ole Miss would have you deduce. Hold onto your hats, boys. It's only going to get better.

Sadly, the best case scenario for Mississippi is that their head football coach made sure he had a hooker in every port while on recruiting trips. That's best case. Wonder how long this had been going on? Or how long it will be before one of his "escorts" sells her (OK, you're right, that was sexist, could be "his") story to a publication that is willing to pay?

That team is going to have to endure a full season of this stuff. I can just imagine the signs in the various stadiums they visit. At least they don't have to go to Baton Rouge.

But if he had been arranging escorts for recruits, why make those calls himself? Surely no one is that dumb?

If I were a young reporter who wanted to get famous I'd be all over this. No matter who the "talent" was for it's going to be a huge national story. Has the NCAA even scratched the surface of this stinking pile of rotten bags of sin that is the Ole Miss Football Program

To my thinking, it would be difficult to arrange escorts for players when visiting them in their hometowns (or at least more so than when the players visit the campus). Those road visits by the coaches usually involve high school and in-home visits. Adding the escorts to the mix would seem to involve hotel rooms or remote locations that would surely invite suspicion from people around the recruits. It would also fly in the face of the plausible deniability and degrees of separation that are usually a staple of head coaches' approach to "extra benefits" in recruiting if the boss was arranging this kind of stuff himself. I may be naively missing something obvious, but my gut tells me this is more of a Freeze-only issue.

I agree, I think it was Mr. Innocent that was messing with the hookers.
