Do you think todays ruling means Camgate is over.
Do you think that Auburn will be in the clear moving forward.
Do you think Newton/s will be in the clear moving forward.

Camgate, not officially over.
AU will not get penalties, but may still have to vacate wins.
Cecil, maybe not, Cam, yes.

it doesn't matter what they think. this thing is not even remotely close to being over unless they find something.

I find it hard to answer your questions with a straight yes/no. I think Auburn will still be under the microscope from the NCAA, but ultimately, nothing will come of it.

Goes without saying for any fan base.
No harm in seeing where each Auburn fan here on the Rant stands on the issue. All in one thread.

I want to think Auburn is in the clear, but I know Auburn has a couple of idiot boosters, and that scares me some. I do believe the institution itself (coaches, AD, etc.) is clean

I think Cam is fine. I think his father should be ashamed of what he almost cost his son.

This is over. Did Auburn do anything my cynical(sp?) nature says yes but to be honest if Bama was in this situation I would think privately that we did something as well. I just think human nature and the drive to be successful being what it is people generally do the wrong thing and aren't sorry until they are caught. The good thing is that the NCAA did the right thing if they don't have proof Auburn shouldn't be in any trouble at all. I don't believe this is any cover up on the NCAA part as some suggest simply because if they were found out they would be ruined and they don't want to give up any of the power they have now.

To think Auburn is getting hammered at this point is ludicrous unless something else comes up.

If what you mean by that is that with the facts that are currently out there, then yes, I agree. But I still thing this thing is a long ways from over.

This^^^^
I will add Camgate is not over not so much to involve Auburn, but more to do with MSU coming under their microscope.
"Mississippi State has disassociated the involved individual."

He didn't know BS will NEVER fly! After Feds get through with this, MSU may be in deep as well as AU.
The NCAA has cracked open Pandora's Box by stating what they did and they will get that closed immediately by retracting it in a politically correct manner.

1. Officially? No. In the absence of any newly discovered evidence, it's effectively over for Auburn.
2. See newly discovered evidence statement above.
3. See #2.
More on #2...Auburn was never implicated, and that is clear by today's ruling. This is, was, and always has been about what happened in Starkville.

I think the key aspect is that the NCAA has looked at all the financial records for the extended Newton family. If anything aroused suspicion, I'm guessing we would have seen a very different statement today.
That means you're probably left with the theory that Auburn paid with a duffle bag full of cash and Cecil hid it away somewhere. So what does the NCAA do at this point, grab a shovel and start digging holes in his back yard? Kidnap Cam, strap him to a chair, inject him with sodium pentathal and force him to confess that he was involved in the plot all along?
I just don't see where any smoking gun (assuming there is one) is going to come from. About the only person who could torpedo Cam right now is Kenny Rogers, and Kenny is claiming he had no involvement with Auburn and money never changed hands with anyone. And keep in mind Kenny is doing his best to blame Cecil for all this, and if there was anything incriminating on Cecil or Cam he would have gleefully spilled it by now, since he is now furious with the Newtons and is trying to paint himself as the victim in this scam.
PS - I think the Kenny Rogers of the world are the real targets of this case. The NCAA is probably more worried/aggravated by all of the "handlers", "runners", aspiring agents and middlemen operating as pimps than they are the occasional corrupt family member or stupid 18 year old.
