This is an excerpt of perhaps one of the worst college football scandals of the past 50 years. Ole Miss, the school of Trent Lott, Thad Cochran, and Shepard Smith, has been shown to lie to its players throughout the recruiting process, and then also trying to keep them from transferring without penalty.

Be patient. The article takes a while to load.

excerpt (this is Tom Mars talking): For the benefit of Mr. Logan or anyone else who wonders why these players’ parents hired a lawyer so early in the process, perhaps this more complete and accurate explanation of what transpired this week will help them understand why these parents asked for my help so early in the process. But if anyone needs further proof of why that was a wise decision, I should mention that, in separate incidents, two of the players I represent went to pick up their scholarship checks on Friday and were told by a university financial aid employee that Matt Ball (the AD’s compliance director) had asked her to have them sign a form before they picked up their checks.

The players looked at the form and realized they were being asked to forfeit their scholarship. To their credit, and only because their parents had hired a lawyer, the players told the financial aid person that they had a lawyer and weren’t signing anything without the lawyer’s prior approval.
