Still can't believe Auburn just acted like nothing was wrong. Who cares if they can't prove anything, your players dad was just accused of soliciting money for letter of intent from another school.

Why take your glove off and slap the ncaa in the face? Schools are supposed to take allegations extremely serious and play it safe. Ignoring it was just weird.

I think they do take it seriously. When the NCAA says "we suggest you sit him.", I think/hope Auburn will. But, and the argument is almost cliche at this point, Auburn is "damned if they do, damned if they don't"... What's the difference between 2-10 and 0-12? And that's considering we are good enough to win without him... I like pumping sunshine just as much as any fan, but there's a probability we'd get arse-raped by bama without cam

Jay Jacobs said after the meeting Thursday the NCAA gave them no indication or reason for sitting Cam.

*That is not to say nothing illegal did happen.

I think part of the problem is that NCAA rules don't specifically address solicitation by family members. LINKLook for the rules to be amended to include solicitation by any representative of a student athlete including family members.
