It's going to be a tough week in Auburn, Alabama.



You made this one up.



No, he didn't. However, that tweet was several tweets up from the ones concerning the Memphis situation, and it came out an hour or so after Auburn-MSU finished. Not sure it's connected to the previous tweets.

But leave it to the tin-foil hatters at Auburngate to join in the conversation on one of the other tweets. They even brought Shon Coleman into the discussion - like he hasn't been through enough.

Guys they have us. I have it on good authority that Auburn is working with the NCAA and we reported and agreed not to go to a bowl game this year.

We also agreed to continue to play the Tampa 2.

Finebaum trolling now too:

Paul Finebaum ?@finebaum

Fans hitting panic button on Chizik. However, $7.5 million buyout big factor. Thank goodness AU doesn't have any NCAA problems.

Honest question. What is the worst case scenario for Auburn?

Say an AU booster paid for the grade change. AU compliance flagged it and reported it. Do they disassociate from the booster and ...What penalty follows?


I'd think worst case would be your forfeit games the kid played because he's technically ineligible, the NCAA comes set up camp, and if they find anything additional you potentially get a lack of institutional control charge.

Or the NCAA could just pull a UNC and not do a damn thing.

Who the hell knows these days.

He doesn't play for AU and was ruled ineligible before the season started.

And to throw a little water on the fire, the last tweet Calkins sent out concerning the Memphis situation was at 7:35 AM. Veazey tweeted Calkins at 7:52 AM. The "long week in Auburn" tweet from Calkins came at 4:39 PM. I'm saying they're not connected.

Also, Veazey appeared puzzled as to why Auburngate would chime in:

Kyle Veazey ?@kyleveazey
@geoff_calkins The counselor I talked to Wednesday (LINK ) told me she has spoken with ESPN.

Auburngate ?@Auburngate
@kyleveazey @geoff_calkins Darren Bates and Shon Coleman are from Memphis, too.

Kyle Veazey ?@kyleveazey
@Auburngate Yes, they are. (Is there a reason you're passing this along this morning?)

fwiw I have a secondary source (highschool position coach) who told me last week that the school admin asked MSU to cease all contact with their player because they straight up offered cash.

So is there not multiple guys involved at this point or just the one?

As if not being able to be in the BBVA Papa Johns bowl in Bham is some kind of penalty.

What's this got to do with your two year hard-on you've had for AU getting busted? Blue balls must be a bitch by now.
