Ole Miss football’s Pete Golding hits Dabo Swinney’s tampering accusations with defiant response appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
As Ole Miss football head coach Pete Golding has broken his silence on a bevy of topics regarding the school, there’s no denying that the program has been a target in a myriad of directions. Consequently, with the Ole Miss football program under investigation for transfer violations, one of the topics that people are talking about that Golding spoke about regards Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney.
Subsequently, the Tigers coach would accuse the Rebels of tampering with linebacker Luke Ferrelli, leading to the aforementioned investigation from the NCAA. Golding would be asked about it, and after saying that the team itself is ‘blocking out the noise,’ he would downplay the actions that are being accused of the school, especially with “what you’re seeing day-in and day-out.”
“I couldn’t care less what everybody else thinks of us,” Golding said, via On3 Sports. “I think our players understand, there’s a bull’s eye and a circle on them now based on their success and what they’ve done on the field. They’ve got to be able to block out the noise.”
“I think a lot of things make headlines,” Golding continued. “There’s a lot more people involved that everybody might not know. Everyone wants clarity. Enforcement about a lot of these things is a real problem. I’m not going to sit up here and say whatever we did or we didn’t do, was it right or was it wrong? But, you know, when you go through what we went through (with tampering), and what you’re seeing day-in and day-out, some things you feel like shouldn’t matter that they’re making a big deal about.”
At any rate, it remains to be seen if Golding and the Ole Miss football program get reprimanded with the investigation underway.
