...really a ******** of a town with fancy window dressings. Akin to putting cheap siding on a rotten, termite-riddled shack; that place is all pomp & zero substance. They're hip & cool. They named a bar/club after a place of learning; a restaurant after a market. Like Alonis Morsette they think irony is edgy, but just like the singer using smilies, they only make themselves the butt of their own joke: showing their ignorance & incompetence.

Also, inquiring minds want to know if you can really eat full-sized hamburgers like tiny sliders & when you do, does "Archie" Manning get all wide eyed?

Nah, I'm thoroughly enjoying that thread and don't want to spoil the belief that opposing a deposition is a BIG DEAL. I figured at least one of the attorneys who post here would explain why any defense attorney worth his salt would do the same thing. It's not some big scandalous thing. Anyhow, I'm too busy googling the countless articles extolling the virtues of Oxford to explain basic litigation tactics which, let's be honest, will only be taken as an evil Bear attorney trying to SPIN.

The reason freeze is opposing the deposition makes it a pretty big deal I would think

Something in the water in Oxford makes their people the least accountable people on the planet. Never their fault. Always someone else's issue.

What an immoral shitpot.

Agree on opposing it. I am baffled that the reason was so that the NCAA couldn't use it against him. As long as he tells the truth it shouldn't be a problem, right?

I'll just say I'd be surprised if tmz reported that accurately. The CL story doesn't mention the NCAA rationale. The attorney for freeze is no dummy and knew whatever he filed would make the news. The NCAA comment was probably taken out of context, would be my guess. But I'll gladly admit if I'm wrong.

I'm sure UM paid a nice chunk of change for someone to write those articles. Think about it. Indeed, Oxford has had an strangely high number of articles written about it. Do you really think the town is so badass that some random columnist 6, 7, 8 or so states away feels compelled to write an article about how it's some hidden Utopia? In North MS of all places? As if the writer has never been to a town just as "awesome" outside of the poorest state in America.

All these reach arounds Oxford gets through the media remind me a lot of the whole Blind Side garbage. It's just a bunch of exaggerated fluff fabricated by some UM homers and force fed down the public's throat.

That makes sense. Could easily see the reporter jumping to conclusions.

For his sake, I hope it was badly misreported.

Hey arlo, ask hugh what situation could possibly cause the truth to be bad strategy in a deposition and let us know what he says. U

If course the answer is "when it hurts your case".

We just cant imagine that being the case given what hugh and ross have already said.

Ill hang up and listen

You are surprised that TMZ, who broke the story, would quote the document and its relation to an ongoing NCAA investigation, while the CL would not mention anything about an NCAA investigation related to Freezus? I guess it would be a difference of perspective. This isn't a request from the university, T$UNil, Matt Luke, or John Miller. It's from Freezus' personal attorney. But please entertain us with other possible contexts for this quote.

"at this time, the NCAA is considering allegations against the University and its football program, including allegations related to [Tunsil]."

ETA: I don't understand why the CL would redact the names of Freezus' attorneys out of the article.

ETA: Know your attorney:

The situation in which Freeze must choose between telling the truth to avoid perjury or telling a lie to back up his previous lies.
