Report: NCAA charges Ole Miss with multiple rules violations

The NCAA has charged Ole Miss with roughly 30 different violations involving the football, track and field, and women's basketball programs, according to Pat Forde of Yahoo Sports.

It's unknown how many violations relate to each sport, according to Forde, who first reported the Rebels were under investigation for the violations in October 2014.

At the time, football head coach Hugh Freeze wasn't believed to be part of the investigation.

As Forde notes, the Rebels have 90 days to respond to the charges. If the NCAA and Ole Miss disagree on the sanctions, the parties will have a hearing during which a committee will rule on the alleged infractions.

Athletic director Ross Bjork released a statement saying he's confident in how his programs are run.

"As has been the case for the past three years, we are bound by confidentiality and cannot comment publicly on the matter," he wrote. "However, I can say that I'm confident in how our coaches and staff operate our program, and we take compliance, NCAA and SEC rules very seriously. We are working hard to seek a resolution to this matter."

Ole Miss found themselves in trouble last year, as offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil - a top NFL prospect - was forced to miss seven games for receiving impermissible extra benefits. The new allegations are also centered around Tunsil, according to Chris Low of ESPN.
