or .. 'What nobody is talking about.' I read the SI article and though it was a good summary, there was no 'smoking gun' or 'bombshell' revelations. But what really left me puzzled was the complete lack of any mention of Tunsil and his 'financial advisor,' agent or agents in the SI article.

From the beginning, the Tunsil/Miller 'fight,' arrests, suits, counter-suits, etc have been about Tunsil "riding around with football agents.” Most agree (including Tunsil's attorney and current agent) that the draft night hacked photos and texts were committed by Tunsil's former "business manager/financial adviser/agent."

The 'former' advisor had given Tunsil a new cellphone (also an NCAA violation itself) before he had been fired when other agents pointed out to Laremy that the advisor was not registered as an agent.

Right after the draft night fiasco, there was a frantic search to 'find the hacker' and Parish Alford even wrote about 'how' Tunsil could recover $8M of his draft night loses by suing the hacker. Bucky has fought 'tooth and nail' to stay out or limit the questioning in the Tunsil v Miller civil suit.. Because he will be asked ‘under oath’ about what he knows/knew about Tunsil and agents/adivsors .. which started the fight.

This just leaves us with more questions ..
* There was no mention of Tunsil and agents/advisors in the NOA. But that is what 'started' the Tunsil/Miller fight. Will this be part of a 'new' NCAA NOA?
* No real mention of NCAA WRT agents in the SI article BUT Miller has to know 'who' the advisor is and had to talk to the NCAA about it. Will this come out in the future?
* Will Bucky be forced to answer questions about Tunsil and agents in the civil suit or does OM just pay off Miller and walk away?
* Will/has the NCAA question the 'advisor?'

I think the former agent/financial advisor has been paid off & we'll never hear from him again.

Also no mention I saw of Freeze meeting with recruits in the presence of boosters either.

Mostly tooth, I would have to believe.

There are so many different violations they just can't remember to write about everything, so they save it for later.

100% correct.

But, but , but , Reb fan say " the FBI is on the case and he will be arrested anyday now"

Frigging idiots

The Money to move from Florida to Oxford for Tunsil's family? Where did that $ come from if they are a family that struggles to pay their utility bills (electric bill ~$300)?

I am 35 years old and I have moved around 20 times in my life time---Kingsport TN, Bassfield MS, Houston TX, Yazoo City MS, Jacksonville FL, Brookhaven MS, Starkville MS, Caledonia MS, Orange TX, Beaumont TX, Cary NC, Fuquay-Varina NC, Clemson SC, Vancouver Canada, and many more---so I know how expensive moving can be, storage, transportation, fixing up your house to sell, hotels, etc.

Dak Prescott's Mom Peggy stayed in Vinton Louisiana and she died in Vinton Louisiana, she did not move with Dak to Starkville. Most Star player's families do NOT move with the player to their College.

It makes perfect sense that his family can afford to move to a much more expensive house in Oxford, but needs to dip into the "opportunity fund" to keep the lights on.

If you question this you are a racist.
