You honestly think money didn't play a part in the decision process?



Yes, well other than the 200,000+ Cecil received.

I have to ask you a serious question. Do you believe in Santa Clause?



Why yes I do, and I leave him egg nog and Pralines every year, because I am a good boy !

How much money was lost due to the Bush findings? Did the PAC-10 or NCAA give money back to anyone?



Do you honestly believe that a monopoly like the NCAA gives two shits about money at this point? They want to give a proper and honest ruling with all the facts. All the other cases took alot of time to investigate. Maybe Auburn isn't cooperating with the NCAA? Idk if they are or aren't but that could definitely slow them down some.

Point is people are ready to thrash the NCAA , but if they give a ruling based on little sufficient evidence then they will sued and could be disbanded. They are not gonna put their names on the line to cover for several Million when the NCAA is a multi billion dollar organization.

What did the SEC and NCAA stand to lose if Cam were found not eligible? Give me just your best guess rounded in millions.



You really want to ask that? Just think about it for a sec.

Apparently Uncle Milty has requested to be severed from the other defendants in the gambling trial. If he has cut a deal with the feds and starts talking it could be the beginning of the end for Aubbie.

Isn't this the SAME organization that will rule a recruit INELIGIBLE if his GPA or ACT score goes up more than a preset number of points?

Aren't they, in those cases, presupposing that shenanigans occurred without any evidence of the fact? They, in effect, are saying "you did too well on your ACT retake. There may have been some cheating....so you may NOT enroll and practice at your school of choice."

No factual evidence. Just a preponderance of evidence. I call hypocrisy.
