Hearing through the grapevine that at least one current OM player's family has hired Tom Mars. I actually texted Steve and he's hearing the same thing but Mars won't give any information. Straight fire coming out of Oxford

The only logical reason a current player would do this would be because of the admitted lies told by the Ole Miss admin in the weeks leading up to signing day 2016, and the info Mars has about the lies.

Haha awesome. Let’s go get an industrial size bag of Marshmallows and make s’mores as the grove burns. Love it.

The Sheavior?

We know the family wasn't happy, and now that the injury may threaten the future earning potential, what can you do but sue?

Hiring Mars to represent you because the coaching staff lied to you during recruitment about the contents of the NOA. Bold strategy. It would be interesting to see if this player has text messages from coaches to help draw a picture for the legal team.

Maybe Leo Lewis needs to hop aboard the Mars legal express. Wouldn't that light a fire under their collective rebel-bear-landshark asses?

How many times can/will OM just settle out of court with a gag order that prevents the information from getting out? It would be expensive, but is it technically possible to bury the whole thing with money?

The entire 2016 class was lied to. That's why they'll be able to transfer out no matter the bowl ban period.

This will be an interesting fraud and conspiracy case that should lead to criminal prosecution as well as civil.

i'm guessing it's the Sheavior too....particularly now that they have a replacement who has not slowed them down at all (i actually think the hawaiian is better!)

I'm all for burning Ole Miss to the ground but hopefully this is just to be able to transfer. You gotta think that the precedent it would set for players to sue a school for feeling slighted would hurt the sport as a whole.

Nafoom is convinced that mars has been paid for by MSU people. I’m starting to wonder.

Sorry, had to laugh. OM 'spin' is that BOTH sides dropped the lawsuit and OM didn't pay Nutt/Mars anything!!

OM PAID and paid dearly to have the Nutt suit disappear. This is icing on the cake and Mars already has the evidence.

But would also set the precedent that lying to players as an official staff of a NCAA institution is NOT OK. I think Mars already got it cleared up that it's not ok to Slander past coaches...

True. It just depends how far they run with it. Sort of like the Hollywood sex scandal. It started off with a lot of legitimate cases and then spiralled out of control. Now you're seeing coffee gophers getting outed as perverts for looking at actresses the wrong way 15 years ago. We live in a victim culture now where you garner power by screaming foul play and tearing others down. I'd hate to see it bleed into college football like it has the NFL but it seems inevitable.
