This is ridiculous.

If recruits or transfers choose a school because of a QB while that QB currently doesn't have any more eligibility left and then isn't deemed eligible after the appeal, that's on them.

That said, the NCAA needs to do something to fix the current state of college sports. It's ridiculous. I don't mind NIL, but we don't even have NIL, it's just pay for play. Which doesn't even bother me, but something needs to be done to address the issues with the portal and try and get these players under some type of contract.

Who are they? The NCAA can't do anything because they don't have an antitrust exemption. Congress must act but won't because there is no support without making the players employees, and that won't happen.

Im talking about NCAA policy, not the law. I thought this was pretty obvious as it would be unreasonable to assume I was talking about actual law, although I did use the term contract.. I clearly meant as it pertains to "committed, etc."

You can sign whatever NIL contract you want, but as far as pledging your commitment to an institution that you arent even eligible to attend in that way... should be able to be governed.

Its being communicated such that hes already pledged to Ole Miss football, but theres really not an avenue for him to do that such as enrollment in football program etc until his eligibility is corrected.

You think other recruits don’t know that? And if not the other programs do and are free to let the recruits know

Dude, it is called a contigency contract. It happens literally millions of times a day all over the world. My purchase of your home is contingent upon me selling mine. My purchase of your widgets, is contingent upon you being able to produce 1000 a month. See how it works? Jeez.

It’s called a suspension condition, a future uncertain event triggers the effectiveness of a contract or enforceability of certain conditions.

Very common, for example, most residential real estate purchase agreements can have multiple suspension conditions that trigger the closing date - the residence must pass inspection; the buyer must secure financing; the home must appraise; etc.

The purchase agreement is valid but the certain obligations do not become enforceable until the condition is satisfied.

For the Chambliss situation, the timing does feel like portal leverage. But I think this is also leverage for the Eligibility Request. What this gives Chamliss is a stick to swing back at the NCAA if his request is denied, and that stick is his damages or alleged damages that he will seek when he sues the NCAA if his request is denied.

Not quarterbacks though which is crazy on their part because they need at least one portal QB regardless. Their QB situation isn’t much different from LSU’s. They’ve just decided to gamble.

It will also keep OM from signing a QB until its too late. Trying to sabotage LK is how they ended up with Golding and how they will end up without a QB.

Lady M said that the Attorney for Chambliss (Marsh) is "Undefeated" in Court against the NCAA in eligibility cases! (Undefeated like Sorsby's girlfriend)

It's basically propaganda that will lure other recruits, that LSU is competing for, into signing with Ole Miss. By the time they realize its a farse, and he won't have his eligibility, it will be too late.

So, basically, it's misrepresenting things to other recruits.


The uncertainty around Chambliss' future cost Ole Miss a shot at Josh Hoover, the QB from TCU. He was set to visit Ole Miss this week.

So if anything, it's actually hurting Ole Miss in the event we do have to replace him.
