Ole Miss' Laremy Tunsil being held out for second straight game

Ole Miss will be without star offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil again when the Rebels host Fresno State on Saturday.

Tunsil is missing his second straight game due to an ongoing NCAA investigation, Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze confirmed to ESPN. Tunsil sat out last week's win over Tennessee-Martin as a "precautionary measure," per Ole Miss.

Tunsil, a junior, is one of the top prospects in college football. His stepfather, Lindsey Miller, has alleged that Tunsil received impermissible benefits during his recruitment to Ole Miss and had improper contact with agents. The school has also investigated since the allegations were made after an altercation between Tunsil and Miller in June.
