re: The only way Newton sits is if Auburn chooses to sit him

You could be right. This whole thing is like watching a train wreck. Sad, but fascinating.

It must be agonizing for Auburn fans, like death by a thousand cuts. Every day gets a little worse.

In the end, who knows what will happen, but it doesn't look good, and there will be some serious consequences for some people, either because Newton is found to be ineligible or because people lied to try to make it appear that he was. This story is a long way from over.
