Look at logic- if the NCAA thought for one second that the FBI was going to drop some big bomb on the Newtons , MSU or AU they would have handled this differently- THE FBI is mostly interested in the criminal investigation of individuals that just happen to be AU boosters. The FBI could give a didly about AU and it's football program.

It is about MONEY Economic money-- all of us who feel disenfranchised and cheated by the Newton scam are not going to get the answer we want. The NCAA is NOT concerned about any of us. The NCAA is concerned about the economic engine of college sports and protecting its universities from scandal. Unless the FBI arrests Cecil Newton( which it most likely will not) and proves a money trail- this is going no further. It is a bad situation that the powers that be want to disappear- I don;t like it anymore than you do

FBI didn't get involved with Albert Means until later in the game. Up until that time there was no way to prove Means or Lynn Lang ever received any money. But the fact that somebody might have gotten paid perked up the ears of the FBI. They dug in their heels after that.

If the FBI, through wiretaps, has uncovered Aubarn boosters talking about giving thousands of untaxed dollars to the father of a QB- then you can bet they will be involved
