[RollTideFan] King Jackie
Former Mississippi State coach files lawsuit against NCAA Associated Press STARKVILLE, Miss. - Former Mississippi State coach Jackie Sherrill has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA and two of its investigators, claiming the defendants caused him to lose his job and drove him out of college football by making false allegations. In October, the NCAA placed Mississippi State's football program on four years probation, stripped it of four scholarships during each of the next two seasons and banned the Bulldogs from postseason play this year. The NCAA's infractions committee reported it had found that two former Mississippi State assistants and several boosters committed recruiting violations between 1998-2002. Allegations of unethical conduct against Sherrill were dismissed. The Starkville Daily News reported Wednesday that Sherrill filed the lawsuit Dec. 2 in Oktibbeha County Circuit Court, seeking several million dollars in damages. The lawsuit names the NCAA, investigators Richard Johanningmeier and Mark P. Jones, and Ridgeland businesswoman Julie Gibert as defendants, both jointly and separately. Sherrill, who announced his retirement in October 2003, claims Johanningmeier, Jones, and Gibert fabricated charges against him during the NCAA probe and defamed him by releasing the charges to the media. The publication of allegations made by Johanningmeier, Jones, and Gibert were intended to permanently damage Sherrill's personal and professional reputation and career, the suit claims. Sherrill could not immediately be contacted for comment. In a 2003 interview with The Associated Press, Sherrill said he believed there is a group of people that went after Mississippi State. The investigator didn't want to know the truth when he was given information. Sherrill said in the earlier interview that he had refused to speak to Johanningmeier during the probe. I did not talk to the guy because I felt that he was not truthful. That he misrepresented people that he talked to and how many times he talked to them, Sherrill said. Sherrill said that he believed Johanningmeier was responsible for a Jackson newspaper reporting one of the allegations being investigated. Former Brandon High School football player Kenneth Griffith told The Clarion-Ledger he received $800 from a Mississippi State assistant coach. Sherrill was replaced at Mississippi State by Sylvester Croom, the first black head football coach in Southeastern Conference history. --- Information from: Starkville Daily News, http://www.starkviledailynews.com ___ RTF mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rolltidefan.net/mailman/listinfo/rtf_rolltidefan.net

Sherrill told The Associated Press that he was never made aware of the specific allegations against him when questioned by the NCAA. There are some questions that were raised and my attorney has put them (the NCAA) on notice that when you send out stuff that is false in the official inquiry, then you should be held liable and accountable, Sherrill said. He and his attorney, Wayne Ferrell, said NCAA investigator Richard Johanningmeier acted unethically while conducting the 2 1/2-year investigation. Yes, we think Johanningmeier twisted statements, manipulated statements, Ferrell said. He said that the allegations against Sherrill are based on secondhand information. http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sports/1203/09sherrill.html ROLL TIDE!

It seems there were some inaccuracies. http://www.gomemphis.com/mca/football/article/0,1426,MCA_478_2211678,00.html Sherrill hot about cool vests By From Our Press Services August 27, 2003 Mississippi State football coach Jackie Sherrill is miffed that Nike has provided Oregon with experimental vests the Ducks might use Saturday night to help stay cool when they play the Bulldogs in what figures to be warm and humid conditions. Sherrill said Mississippi State, which also has a contract with Nike, wasn't offered the equipment until he asked about it. The product, which was developed by Oregon-based Nike, is worn under the shoulder pads and weighs slightly more than a T-shirt. When connected to a sideline compressor, the bladder-like device blows helium into the players, according to Sherrill. That helium just ain't right, said Sherill to reporters Monday. That Auburn punter tried that a few years back but we caught on to his little game. Nike spokemen said Tuesday the vests were designed to pump dehumidified air onto the players, helping cool them. No helium was being used. They think we're stupid you know, responded Sherill. C'mon, man, dehumidified air? Like hell. They pumpin' helium in those boys to help 'em jump high and block kicks and stuff. Nike product scientist Alvin Haynes refuted Sherill's accusation as baseless. We are intrigued by Coach Sherrill's grasp of physics and the laws of gravity but we maintain that the vests are primarily for cooling, not an attempt at creating an artificial levitation advantage for the Oregon players. said Haynes. Saturday's forecast calls for a high temperature of 91 degrees and a low of 68 with a possible thunderstorm mixed in. Winds are expected to be 20-30mph from the south and southwest. Ah HAH, said Sherrill. Wind! THAT¹S gonna be their undoing! Them Ducks didn't figure on wind!

Sherrill said Mississippi State, which also has a contract with Nike, wasn't offered the equipment until he asked about it. When you have two teams under contract to the same vendor you question why they're allowing one to use it and not another, he said. They (Nike) didn't offer it until (last) Friday afternoon, and not until I asked the question.

When connected to a sideline compressor, the bladder-like device blows dehumidified air on the players. Phil Knight, CEO and co-founder of Nike, is an Oregon alum and major supporter of the school's athletic program. Sherrill said Tuesday the vests were being shipped to Starkville but would not arrive until Friday. That's too late, he said. How long does it take your team to get accustomed to them? You don't just walk in and put a new item on a player on game day that you've never tested or worn.
