OM players back in the JS days? Its been a long time since then but I think it happened but not sure.

Doug Buckles was given immunity I believe i saw Steve tweet.

Yes.. the linebacker from Brandon (name escapes me) that rolled on us after he begged for $800 from a coach so he could take a summer course and get eligible. The coach paid the money from his own pocket... not Barney and the Slush Fund.. because he felt sorry for him. That was the biggest hit in our case.

He flipped to the bears and was given immunity.

Palmer was his name I think.

Seems like one player that burned us ended up at Southern.

I have a group of folks bitching about the NCAA interviewing our players. They are saying they could lie to them. I said Oh well...they interviewed some OM guys when we were under investigation.

If they catch them lying, the player is done with college football for good. That's what happened to Dez Bryant.

Eric Dotson. That's why Brad Lott had such nice things to say to him. Sorry you said OM. Reading comprehension fail.

Looks like Coach was on top of all this 3 years ago.

Ken Griffith.

It was Ken Griffith now that I read his name down the board. And he didn't ultimately end up with the bears but it was heavily rumored at the time that ole miss knew how he got his summer course paid and turned us in through some heavy breathing and pillow talk.

Haha. That's not exactly right, but close enough...

In August of 2002, Davis violated NCAA recruiting legislation when he made impermissible telephone calls to prospect Ken Griffith (Brandon) and arranged to pay the cost of two high school courses Griffith took at the Education Center in Jackson and to provide him with money for personal use.

The amount for the classes was $800 and was paid in installments.
