Judge is reviewing motions about what and what will not be sent to jury trial. NCAA has asked for a summary dismissal and of course Team Gallion is pressing forward for all charges to be sent to the jury.
Per John Falkenberry (sp?), a lawyer doing analysis on the Slimebaum show:
1) Some defamation claims could likely go forward.
2) The conspiracy charges are not likely to go forward.
He reviewed the briefs from both sides. Before reading them, he felt there was no legal merit for the conspiracy charges. After reading the briefs he is more convinced.
As we have all seen though, experts' opinions of what WILL happen aren't always accurate.
Of course, all the callers to the show are inventing various legal scenarios to get Tennessee but the lawyer is refuting them.
What's amazing is the arguments seem to be "the way we were caught was a conspiracy involving Fulmer, Roy Kramer, the NCAA etc." The fact that they were caught cheating (big time) while still on probation from previous violations seems to be a non-issue! :blink:
It's also been interesting to watch the change over the last few years from "we didn't do anything wrong" to "the violations were minor but the Albert Means stuff is all fabricated" to "schools can't control boosters and it was a conspiracy that exposed us".
lol:
Of course some on the edge have postulated that Fulmer and Roy Adams actually paid Lynn Lang and that Logan Young was framed! Or entrapped!
It's gonna get wild!lol: lol: lol:
