Haha ok Channing, ok.
This makes them look worse than just ignoring it like they have been.

Wow. I guess the CLedger Sports Dept busted those rumors wide open.
Great Work by them (and OM publicity-spin guys). Incredible journalism from a leader in the sports journalism industry.
After that story I guess the NCAA investigation is a done deal and they can move on to someone else.

To me, this was the biggest spin:
"The NCAA is currently investigating screenshots of alleged text messages posted on Tunsil’s Instagram, halting the organizing body’s process with Ole Miss. No meeting with the Committee on Infractions has been scheduled, and it may be 2017 before a final ruling is reached."
Nobody said anything was halted. UM has requested a delay, and received no response.

Welp, there it is. Case closed. Time to pack up and head back to Indianapolis boys. Rebels, the NCAA says sorry for wasting three and a half years of your time.
Yep, I knew it. When rumor on here of SI articles emerged on here I immediately made a picture with Freeze and Bjork fishing and proclaiming that their Clarion Liar article would refute any little SI article.
Because that is what Ole Miss does---Chad Kelly arrested, next day News crews video Chad working at a Soup Kitchen--- Nkemdiche and Bryant get in trouble, Mission Trip to Haiti---SI articles coming out, Clarion Liar interview players who will swear on a STACK of Bibles that they were never paid / given extra benefits.

It's comical at this point. I can't even get upset at this point.
The great thing this entire ordeal has accomplished is it is showing everyone exactly what we have felt about these people. That being said I never expected the delusion to grow to this level. I think they are the Cult of Douche and they have outdone themselves once again.
Standing ovation Bears. This level of insanity is impressive. You people have found something you truly are THE best at.

Click the SPS thread & not the link. Is that acceptable? I get the gist of that rag's drivel from here.
Completely acceptable.
At this point Ole Miss people have Concrete Brains...which means hard headed, accepting nothing new, and already set like concrete. Anything said about their violations is a Lie, Lindsey Miller is a Liar who eats infants in his spare time, any photos of Ole Miss recruits flashing cash are Photoshopped, and any screen shots of Ole Miss players talking about getting money are also Photoshopped. And The Clarion Liar panders to people of this mind set.
At this point if Jesus appeared and pointed at Hugh Freeze and said that Hugh was cheating, Ole Miss people would argue that Jesus has been brainwashed and was pushing a "false narrative" about Ole Miss.

Poor stupid Elston probably doesn't realize that the University of Mississippi and the University of Ole Miss are synonymous.
17 me. Shocking journalism.
I hope trea elston flips his bike and knocks his two front teeth out.
Channing ward is jerell powe 2.0.

That's MENSA-level thought processes right there.

The best part about this thread is that we are 7 hours in and there is no OM poster defending it. It must be hard to type during a colonoscopy.
They are still too busy celebrating the Pete Thamel piece to give this one any serious attention. This article was mostly just to inform the NCAA investigators that all the evidence that they uncovered of improper payoffs and benefits were just clerical errors.
Did he give you his standard reply that you are crazy for believing such nonsense despite all the corroborating evidence, since a "graduate and lifelong fan of MSU" is simply incapable of overseeing an operation that is any way biased.
I still cannot figure out if it is
straight up bias, if OM has such a tight leash on the beat writers that cover them, or if the CL is just this stupid and incompetent. I have moved from the incompetence camp to thinking it's probably a mixture of all 3 of these things.
I mean, think about it... for an in-state publication that pretty much had daily front page headlines running during the ENTIRE Will Redmond saga, to just totally go missing and barely reporting jack **** (except what OM puts out for them to report) for this large an investigation, it's stunning. But then again, it isn't...
Riley Blevins gets a huge scoop on Tunsil and weeks later, just goes missing... out of a job. "Pursues other interests." And since then... not one broken story, not one critical article, NOTHING that challenges the talking points coming out of that athletic department since then. Just **** like this. There are high school students who can do better investigative pieces than this.
The saddest part is, for years, this board has joked about CL incompetence. Yet... here we are, calling play-by-play (in sarcastic form) and it plays out exactly as its called. It's like my friend who could call out each and every offensive play Croom ran as they were lining up to snap the ball and watching it play out exactly as he called it, and all you can do is sit back and laugh (but it's really not that funny).

Dude it is intentional...part of a policy...pushing an agenda...showing complete favoritism to Ole Miss...and if any news comes out that runs contrary to their agenda, then that news is ignored or argued against.
Ole Miss is the Clarion Liar favorite. Any transgression that Ole Miss does will NOT be covered---heck the Will Redmond car discount story & even the Tubby Lewis going to The Pony and seeing Titty story got more coverage than this current Ole Miss situation.
MSU and USM will be vastly ignored by the Clarion Liar. And Jackson State is not covered AT ALL anymore in the Clarion Liar. So in the next 5 years the Clarion Liar will officially be "The Ole Clarion Miss Newspaper"---they are already operating like they are, they just haven't changed the name of the paper to reflect it.

When they gave Bjork the opportunity to put out his talking points without taking questions, that erased all doubt. That isn't journalism, it's propaganda. Furthermore, upon later finding out that he lied in those talking points, nobody had the Girodos to call him out on it.
The biggest lie in the entire article was the very first line
OXFORD - Laremy Tunsil’s NFL draft night admission that he received money from Ole Miss staffers while he was the school’s left tackle shocked the college football world.
I stopped reading after that.

To me, that's the biggest question mark of this entire saga. How Ross Bjork still has a job after that is beyond me. He lied, got called out for that lie, and nobody in that fan base even questioned his actions. I expected the Clarion Ledger to sit with their thumb up their *******, but Ole Miss fans are smarter than that. We would have roasted penny loafers if this was happening to us.
