As Ole Miss recruiting continues to go down the toilet, the Rebel narrative says it's Bjork's fault because they won't take the interim tag off Luke and make him permanent coach, so there's too much uncertainty for recruits looking at the program.

Actually, there's too much uncertainty because you are a bunch of cheaters and you are awaiting your sentence for your crimes. Also, just a friendly reminder: your interim head football coach is named in the NOA, so they aren't going to make him the head guy, give him a 4 year contract, and then have to fire him because he gets show caused. They are awaiting the COI ruling before moving forward. If Luke skates at the COI hearing, he will be your next permanent coach...because that's the best hire you can hope for at this point.

Yancy at this year's event when he realizes there are no four or five stars there to follow into the men's room.

Yes, they are in the worst, non death situation they can imagine. They have no head coach and no way of going out to find a new one, because only nobodies or those with no future would consider the job at this stage and there is no way they can recruit players or a coach with all of the charges hanging over their heads.

This has been the worst off season for any SEC school I can remember. If you dream up a rumor, it has been put forth for them - all the way from this being such a good thing that Sabin is now interviewing for the HC job at UM and the reductions actually helping their recruiting to Death to everything there other than Volleyball.

Come on September. At least then we will have football every weekend and will be able to enjoy an OM Bowl each and every week. My biggest hope is that it will end at some point before Thanksgiving.

I hope it never ends. I hope they postpone the COI hearing and reopen the investigation based on hughs phone records. Another recruiting class or two of around 100 in the rankings, before the sanctions kick in, is exactly what they deserve for turning this thing into the circus it has become.

And they said last year's class "was a penalty." But wait, there's more!

I hope so too, but

with the new penalty matrix they have enough there alone to usher in the modern day death penalty. I'm sure they could investigate more, but it won't matter in the long run. They won't get the DP, but they'll get pretty damn close.

This class will be way worse than last. Luke will not get a show cause and will be coaching somewhere else next year imo.

But think of the money they've saved by not having to pay Freeze's contract... Didn't they say that along with their top-notch facilities they could put together a sterling package to lure a top name coach to come and get their shot at being an SEC coach?

that can use the money they saved on hugh to pay back the money owed once sanctions are handed down.

I wouldn't be too quick to declare Fatt Matt exonerated just yet. The matter of those burner phones remains an X factor at the moment. If Matt's powder sugar covered finger prints are on burner phone records, he will most assuredly be staring down the barrel of a show cause.
