Ole Miss has been under investigation by the NCAA for nearly five years. The football program is facing 21 rules violations, including 15 classified as Level I, which the governing body considers the most serious. The sprawling case involves alleged academic, booster, and recruiting misconduct.

Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze resigned in July, but the school says it wasn't related to the NCAA case. Instead, the school cited a ''pattern of personal misconduct'' after an investigation into Freeze's phone records.
