1) Fulmer traded secrets on Alabama to let Tennessee off the hook (100% true)
2) Alabama runs an elaborate system of cheating involving the REC, Mark Emmert, the SEC office, free cars and various other incentives (Almost 100% true, take out the SEC Office).
3) Ole Miss paid everyone in class of 2013 (Change the word to everyone to MOST and you are spot on)
4) - Cam Newton got $250K (Not even remotely true, MSU did try to buy him, Kenny Rogers a MSU player tried to get money from MSU with Cecils knowledge. Kenny Rogers never contacted Auburn). NOTE: Cam may have gotten paid, but church donations did not come close to the number you stated.

1. Ole Miss has been paying since '13

2. Cam got paid

3. SEC officials are Bama biased

4. Fulmer ratted on Bama to hurt the program, which in turn helped his.

5. Monroe PD arrested Cam and Hootie when they found stolen guns and drugs on them

The other 2 are retarded.

I thought it was $180k but that may have just been what we know for absolutely certainty what he was offered by state.


Wait, when did it become fact that we offered him cash? I know that the runner and former player Kenny Rodgers tried to get cash from us, but there has been zero proof (only Auburn deflection) that we actually offered anything.

The only thing I remember reading about that was a meeting that was set up that our coaches walked out of as soon as money was mentioned, and even that might have been speculation.

The fact that people believe that the REC is capable of controlling all of football and the outside world is hilarious to me.

You had one booster try to procure funds from another booster to get him to play for State and was unsuccessful.

Both state boosters and Cecil admitted to this, State coaches denied it

This actually happened, so it has to be at the top of the list.

remove the word "everyone" and you're on the right track. Some got paid. OM knows this or they wouldn't self impose 11 scholly reduction.

quote:

Cam Newton got $250K

remove dollar amount and replace with "something" and you're on track

quote:

Monroe, LA PD were out to get Alabama football players

I don't think they were "out to get" them, but opportunity presented itself based on their actions for sure, so they took advantage. The DA is a moron, but if he had enough to convict then they would've been charged. He doesn't so they weren't.

Does the REC include some overzealous members who occasionally are on the wrong side of the rules? I'm sure there are some members (like at every other school). However, it isn't organized, for sure. The REC is dozens of chapters and thousands of members. It's too big to be effective at cheating AND being quiet. Someone would want credit for helping get recruit X and would run their mouth.

SEC Officials purposely make calls year after year to ensure LSU loses to Alabama

No. Les Miles makes calls year after year the helps Alabama beat LSU. Also, Bama is just a better program right now and that helps.

- Monroe, LA PD were out to get Alabama football players - 0% CHANCE

- SEC Officials purposely make calls year after year to ensure LSU loses to Alabama - NO CHANCE (but Alabama 100% gets more favorable officiating as a general rule)

- Alabama runs an elaborate system of cheating involving the REC, Mark Emmert, the SEC office, free cars and various other incentives - SORT OF (100% on the elaborate cheating, but without Emmert/SEC, and with a chinese wall between boosters and Alabama)

- Ole Miss paid everyone in class of 2013 - NO (but they did pay a a number of them)

- Cam Newton got $250K - PROVEN UNTRUE (he probably got some improper benefits from someone, per normal)

- Fulmer traded secrets on Alabama to let Tennessee off the hook - QUITE POSSIBLE

- Coach Cal and WWW are the dirtiest cheaters in NCAA basketball history - OF frickING COURSE

Basically exact opposite situations.

We got thrown in NCAA jail and got zero contribution from the player.

Auburn whistled through an investigation and won a national title, player won the Heisman.

All I can say is well done sirs.
