The NCAA and University of Florida head football coach Dan Mullen, who previously served in the same role at Mississippi State, were named in a lawsuit filed Tuesday by Rebel Rags, a retail store in Oxford, Mississippi, related to an NCAA investigation into Ole Miss' football program.
Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports first reported the news, noting NCAA investigator Mike Sheridan and former Mississippi State athletic director Scott Stricklin, who hired Mullen at Florida, were also listed in the suit. Antonio Morales of Mississippi-based newspaper the Clarion Ledger confirmed the details.
