The NCAA has come down hard on the Ole Miss football program, reports say, banning the Rebels from the postseason in 2018 and imposing additional scholarship restrictions.
Ole Miss was accused of 15 Level I violations – the most serious in the NCAA rulebook – for transgressions committed during the tenures of Houston Nutt and Hugh Freeze. The school met with the NCAA Committe on Infractions in September, and the school is set to release the official findings at some point this morning.
Freeze, who was fired in July for issues not related to the NCAA investigation, has received a show-cause penalty, though the length is unknown.
