The biggest losers in this whole debacle have been the non-prized recruits that have bought into this whole string of lies and duplicity wrought by the Ole Miss coaching staff and administration. These kids could have been investing their time and talents with legitimate programs that were above board. Instead, they were deceived and led to believe in something that is quickly becoming exposed as the sham it was.
I'm not talking about the kids who accepted cash payments and other financial "incentives" (daddy gets a lucrative job at UMiss, mom gets a home with the bills paid for, etc etc.). I'm talking about those kids who weren't high profile recruits... the ones who didn't get the red backpack during their recruiting visit. Those kids who were sold on the fabrication alone.
I hope they realize the sooner they wise up and elect to play elsewhere the better they will be.
