Ole Miss vacates 33 wins from 2010-2016
https://www.al.com/sports/2019/02/ole-mi...-says.html
Quote:RebelGrove. com quoted Ole Miss athletics director Ross Bjork as saying during a “town hall meeting” with fans in Cleveland, Miss., that the Rebels will vacate all wins from 2010 (four wins), 2011 (two), 2012 (seven, including the Birmingham Bowl) and 2016 (five). All victories from 2013 except the Music City Bowl (seven wins) and all from 2014 except Presbyterian (eight) will also be vacated.
The vacation of wins is part of the NCAA infractions case that was completed in December 2017. Ole Miss also received a two-year postseason ban (ending in 2018), and was stripped of 11 scholarships over four years, while former head coach Hugh Freeze received a two-game SEC suspension and former staffers Barney Farrar and Chris Kiffin were given show-cause penalties.
Quote:“It’s the last part of this process,” Bjork said. “In a way it’s just a piece of paper because you saw those games.”

OK, so we pretend they didn't win those games. How is vacating wins from previous seasons that much of a penalty?

So stupid. All it does is mess up the records.
