Yesterday, the Ole Miss football program received a notice of allegations from the NCAA’s ongoing investigation, and subsequently announced a self-imposed postseason ban for the 2017 season.
This morning, the team was back at the Manning Center for the beginning of spring workouts. With negativity swirling around the program, strength coach Paul Jackson posted the below photo of the team with the caption “CIRCUMSTANCE DOES NOT CHANGE THE STANDARD”.
Multiple players have retweeted the picture, including defensive leader Marquis Haynes, who announced his decision to return to Ole Miss for his senior season. Haynes also tweeted to reaffirm his commitment to the staff.
In certain cases, NCAA sanctions allow players to transfer without having to sit out a season, but rising sophomore WR A.J. Brown quickly shot down any rumors of doing so.
