NCAA questions Mississippi State's Chris Jones on Ole Miss recruitment
August 11, 2013 10:26 pm ET

The NCAA has interviewed Mississippi State freshman Chris Jones concerning Ole Miss' recruitment of the five-star defensive end, a source with direct knowledge of the process told CBSSports.com.

The specific nature of the interview is unknown. Ole Miss and Mississippi State are the only campuses Jones visited during the recruiting process, according to several national recruiting sites.

Mississippi State directed Jones to Starkville-based attorney John F. Perry for consultation on the matter. CBSSports.com left phone messages for Perry on Sunday. The NCAA recently requested to speak with Jones through Mississippi State, but MSU did not participate in the interview, according to the source.

Ole Miss declined to comment Sunday.

NCAA spokesperson Stacey Osburn said in an email, “based on member-created rules designed to protect the integrity of the process, we cannot comment on current, pending or potential cases.”

Mississippi State expects Jones' eligibility to remain intact as long as it is determined he cooperated with the NCAA. Bylaw 10.1, which outlines what the NCAA considers unethical conduct by prospective or enrolled student-athletes, includes “refusal to furnish information relevant to an investigation of a possible violation of an NCAA regulation when requested to do so by the NCAA or the individual's institution.”

CBSSports.com has left a message for a Mississippi State spokesman.

Jones, a 6-foot-5 All American out of Houston, Miss., took an official visit to Ole Miss on Jan. 25 and a pair of unofficial visits Feb. 1 and 3, according to 247Sports.com.

Leading up to National Signing Day on Feb. 6, Jones told ESPN.com he received threats from overzealous Mississippi State and Ole Miss fans.

"I received death threats, insane messages, you name it,” Jones told ESPN.com. “I mean it has not been as stressful as people would think it has been. I have tried to handle it in the most comfortable way possible, so it has really been alright for me, and in the end, I am very blessed to have this opportunity to play for either in-state school.”

Florida, Auburn and Alabama also were involved in Jones' recruitment, according to reports.

Jones' mother, Mary Woodhouse, said she did not know about an NCAA interview and she never noticed anything suspicious regarding Ole Miss' recruitment of Jones.

She called the family's visit to Oxford “very nice. They were nice to us,” and discussed Ole Miss' commitment to academics.

Ole Miss produced what was widely considered a top-10 national recruiting class, led by defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche, wide receiver Laquon Treadwell and offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil.

I watched that game live.  There were a few gif worthy instances like that.  Texas wanted no parts of the shootout that day.
 
Did you watch the Cotton Bowl?

A&M woulda put up 50 on that train wreck of a defense Texas fielded last year.
