Florida head coach Dan Mullen and athletic director Scott Stricklin are among the names added to the legal battle waged by Oxford-based clothing company Rebel Rags against the fallout from the NCAA’s investigation into Ole Miss.
Rebel Rags had already named Mississippi State players Leo Lewis and Kobe Jones, and Lindsey Miller, Laremy Tunsil’s estranged stepfather, in a previous suit filed last summer that contained 15 John Doe defendants. A new complaint to be consolidated with that suit alleges that Mullen and Stricklin, in their previous roles as Mississippi State coach and AD, respectively, committed acts to aid and abet libel, slander and defamation against the store as a co-conspirator with the other defendants.
