Dear Eagle Club Member:
As many of you may be aware, this morning, the
University of Tennessee terminated the employment of their head men's
basketball coach Donnie Tyndall. While we do not have any comment
related to the specific action taken by Tennessee, I want you to know
that we are continuing to work collaboratively with the NCAA to review
the serious issues raised regarding the men's basketball program while
under the leadership of Coach Tyndall.
Our joint investigation is ongoing and the
process will not be complete for some time. In order to maintain the
integrity of the investigation, and pursuant to NCAA policy, we cannot
comment further regarding details of the case at this time.
There is no question that this ongoing matter
presents challenges for our program, in particular, due to the
uncertainty related to the timing of its resolution. However, please
know that there will be a finish line, and we will emerge from this a
stronger program.
Thank you again for your generous support of Southern Miss.
To The Top, Together,
Bill
