"The ‘deny til you die’ mantra seems to be alive and well, no?"

Forbes ranks how much Newton is worth now compared to when Auburn bought him?

I makes no sense that Newton would have signed with Auburn for nothing after trying to get $180k out of MSU. Everyone knows this thing is dirty as hell, but it just feels like the NCAA and the SEC want to sweep it under the rug and hope that it all just goes away.

There is the scenario where Cecil Newton had an "oh shite" moment after MSU spurned his advances and went to Auburn legitimately.

200k was a steal.

For a MNC title, a hiesman trophy . Countless media exposure. Sell out games. Primetime appearances. Merchandising revenue. And lastly recruiting advantage for the next 4-5 classes who view AU as a major player.

Plus the incredible win over everyones beloved bam a their arch rival.

Hell I will start a collection now for 200k if LSU gets all that. I got 1000 on it we just 199 more donations and we can get the ball rolling. Tax free btw.

I actually think it's likely this is what happened. I however don't believe Cam had no knowledge of his fathers doings and am of the belief that it doesn't matter if he did or not. It's obvious his father was his representative. Heck, he went where his dad asked him to go. He totally lost his amateur status once that occurred. Shame the NCAA is following their own "money trail" on this one.
