Auburn needs to can Jacobs & Pearl. yeah, we all love Bruce, but, he is the head coach -- if he didn't know, he should have.
I am tired of incompetence in the athletic dept.
Follow Lville's example -- clean house
I don't care if they close down men's bball -- put the funds in track, swimming, whatever.

Seriously. Why are folks down voting this?

Pearl came in with one strike. Let's not bury our heads in the sand

Not really seeing it

1- Players were specifically told to not flaunt money / talk about it

2- Person wouldn't have said anything about it

3- We didn't gain a competitive advantage so this wouldn't raise red flags there

He deserves blame for not recognizing an assistant who is desperate for cash and Person's behavior

As I said above though, according to the official FBI charges Chuck wouldn't have raised any unusual red flags

Burden of proof should be on Bruce. He's earned that

You can't prove a negative. What he has earned is a full scale investigation by Auburn's AD to ensure he wasn't involved

Then, we wait to see if the NCAA will take a pound of flesh

You prove it the same way you would a civil or criminal case once the burden has been flipped. There's enough evidence that Bruce was or should have been aware. Difficult to get into the details of what he needs to show because we don't have all the facts. The rogue assistant excuse goes only so far. What does he do, if not fired, to ensure this doesn't happen again?

Do you think Jacobs should be fired?

Btw, I think we're saying the same thing

Not saying Pearl is a choir boy, but based on the info we know, why would he NOT freak the frick out if he had prior knowledge of this? It's a lose-lose situation for him, zero to gain.
