Here’s the thing that not one Ole Miss fan I know seems to comprehend. Everyone who knows the story outside of Ole Miss fans and Ole Miss fanboy journalists sees Steve as someone who got to the bottom of a major story that no one else had the balls to cover.

This narrative that their administration and fanboy media created about a Grand Maroon Conspiracy is taken as fact by every Ole Miss fan I know. It’s tinfoil hat level nonsense and recognized as such by reporters at ESPN, Yahoo, USA Today and Sports Illustrated. It’s really amazing what some normally sensible people have bought into.

“Not a fan” McCready just couldn’t believe it when no one outside of Oxford got on board with Godfrey’s supposed bombshell. The reason no one else picked up on it is because everyone else sees this for the simple case that it is:
