Hon.Rebel

Oh come on. USC bought Reggie Bush a house, and got some of their sanctions lifted on appeal. We all know what they were getting up to at Penn State, and they got sanctions lifted on appeal. The worst we are really doing here is drawing unwanted attention to the fact that the NCAA has no intention of enforcing their regulations evenhandedly.

Not everyone. I'm happy with the hire. We fans have plenty to say, but we aren't the ones doing the work. In this instance, I'm inclined to rely on the excellent relationship between Matt Luke and the players. Luke kept this team from giving up, although this season might have been reason to do so. I'm excited to see what he and his boys can accomplish, once out from under the interim tag, the bowl ban and the @#^*% NCAA.

In answer to the question posed by article's headline: No. Those allegations are not new. They were part of the original NOA, prior to the Leo Lewis additions.

Boy, it's gonna be fun to watch this blow up in State's face...

There actually are limits to how long a state can investigate a crime without filing any charges or without bringing the matter to a conclusion. That being the case, why should the NCAA be able to drag things out for years?

No, but the phrase NCAA Assistance Fund" does.

A "fumble" is what "happens" when a "lateral" is "incomplete." SMH. And saying that is excellent coaching on Freeze's part - the players need to be looking forward, not back.

Umm, because it WAS over???

It wasn't a legal play. The ball was dead when Collins touched it, and the play was over. It's very interesting indeed that the box score goes ahead and calls it a fumble, then ignores the fourth down fumble rule, which specifically applies here. In the situation at hand, the only player who can recover that fumble and advance the ball is Henry. The game was over at that point, final score Ole Miss 52, Arkansas 45. The game was stolen, am I the only one who will say it? I'm sure nobody's going to do anything about it though. After the Duke-Miami game, suspending refs has been done this year. And it's to the SEC leadership's purpose to have incompetent SEC officiating. It makes it easier to influence results. But we should have never allowed ourselves to be in a position to have the game stolen. The list of "should have done" items is as long as a few of those Arkansas scoring drives...

Wow, as though anyone needed another reason to dislike Herbstreit… How classless...

Maybe the folks at LSU could actually understand him when he talks. Heard in the huddle: "Did y'all catch that? Anybody know what play he just called?" "No idea, man, let's just run a draw play."

The Rebel Nation is grateful to Ross Bjork for publicly defending one of our athletes, and thanks Saturday Down South for covering it.

I believe that Bob was being a bit sarcastic. As for the origin, the LandShark fin was first thrown up by Rebel linebacker and Iraq war veteran Tony Fein, during the Rebels' defeat of eventual national champion Florida in the Swamp in 2008. The Rebel Nation has since lost Tony Fein, so the LandShark fin is not just a celebration of the mighty Rebel D, but also in honor of a fallen comrade.
