Ole Miss and former football coach Houston Nutt agreed to a settlement regarding the lawsuit Nutt refiled last week, according to Tyler Greever of WJTV 12 News in Jackson, Mississippi.

Greever also shared Ole Miss's official statement:

"Certain statements made by University employees in January 2016 appear to have contributed to misleading media reports about Coach Nutt. To the extent any such statements harmed Coach Nutt's reputation, the University apologizes, as this was not the intent, The NCAA's Notice of Allegations dated Jan. 22, 2016, did not name or implicate Coach Nutt in any misconduct, and it would have been inappropriate for any University employee to suggest otherwise.
