Somewhere in all of this onion peeling, do you think authorities will uncover (discover) payments made to SEC refs? With all of the suspect calls we have seen over the years, one would have to ask the questions.

Rumor is that the following news will be released within the next week or so. It has something to do with an FBI bank fraud investigation into the failure of Colonial Bank and possible money laundering from a bingo casino owned by a Auburn alum and big time booster Milton McGregor (donated over $1 million for a stadium renovation). As part of these investigations, the FBI supposedly wiretapped a number of Auburn boosters. The rumor is that from these wiretaps, the FBI heard McGregor talking about how he had paid $200k for Cam Newton to Auburn . Apparently, this is why the FBI decided to become involved in the Cam Newton investigation. The FBI also apparently found evidence about other improprieties such as academic scandals and potentially paying refs. Don’t know how much of that is actually true, but some people swear that it is. Also, David Pollack tweeted the following a few hours ago: “Man it sure sounds like the Cam situation is about to get ugly. Auburn fans might need to brace themselves.” If this is true, it could get really ugly for Auburn . Also, this back story explains a little more about the FBI’s involvement

if refs have been paid, this scandal escalates to epic, history making proportions, comparing it to the famous black sox scandal and others in the past. slive is history. the sec might not get a chance to play for the NC for a long time. this would be horrible for all of us.

Excellent question Tex. I'm wondering how many stones they (feds) want to turnover regarding all SEC teams, players, and boosters.
