With SEC Media Days over, Ole Miss is only a month away from opening the 2016 college football season. However, while the football program's focus is solely on its opening game against the Florida State Seminoles, Hugh Freeze may be facing an additional battle.
Freeze's program is alleged to have committed 13 NCAA rules violations, including multiple Level 1 violations, which are levied for "severe breaches of conduct." Additionally, former Ole Miss offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil admitted to receiving impermissible benefits from an Ole Miss football staff member during the NFL Draft.
