Your own Senior AD for Compliance stated in early November (BEFORE Cecil admitted to being involved):

"If a person, in this case Kenny Rogers, was acting on behalf of the school, then it's the school's problem. If that person acted on behalf of the family without their knowledge then the player is eligible. If the person acted on behalf OF the family and ANYBODY in the family had knowledge of the action then there is a problem. As we have said, the Newton family, his dad, and Cam himself have said there was no contact."

- Rich McGlynn, Senior Athletic Director for Compliance

This statement was made by YOUR head of compliance BEFORE Cecil eventually changed course and admitted guilt.

Now, let's compare this with the NCAA's statements:

"According to facts of the case agreed upon by Auburn University and the NCAA enforcement staff, the student-athlete’s father and an owner of a scouting service worked together to actively market the student-athlete as a part of a pay-for-play scenario in return for Newton’s commitment to attend college and play football."

- NCAA Press Release


SUMMARY: Auburn's Sr. AD over compliance states that IF Cecil knew then there would be a problem. But AU didn't have to worry because he had no contact. Cecil later admits HE WAS actively involved. NCAA confirms Cecil's guilt.

So if your Compliance Director said you'd only have a problem if Cecil knew, and Cecil knew, then why is there no problem now?

Any explanation would be helpful.....

There was a problem so AU burn declared him ineligable.

They asked for reinstatement and the NCAA obliged....

So whats your point?

Umm it was a problem. I guess I missed the part where he said that problem would make Cam ineligible.

Cecil Newton lied to us earlier, there was no reason not to believe him. Once he was deemed guilty, the NCAA notified that they believed Cecil was guilty. We then declare Cam ineligible....the rest is history.

Circumstances change with new information, the NCAA agreed with us

The NCAA and the SEC aren't bound by their own bylaws so you are barking up the wrong tree. There was too much money involved to not let Scam play.

Logic has no place in the those offices.

the newton family takes bribes and auburn gives them. i guess more athletes should just send their parents to take bribes now. it worked for cam. really first class by both parties

Jesus h Christ...

NCAA says he is eligible.....they know the facts.

Do you really think they would risk making a biased decision now, ignoring the facts, risking the possibility that AU could win out and win it all? Everyone is saying they did this to assure he DID play due to the money at stake. But if they fricked up this ruling and end up having to come back and say they did, that would he bad for them, don't you think?

Don't worry, Auburn is going to get hammered over this.
