Isn't that really what is happening? How can we get around the rules, the laws to get what we want? It goes on in Washington and in business everyday. Using Texting, Twitter, etc as "Doing it First" as a recruiting advantage until the rules change to prevent it or regulate it. All the money in college football drives some of the poor income college players to justify accepting money for play. If Auburn Fans pump money in to Cam's fathers business because he now plays for Auburn isn't that working a loop hole? Anyone think contributions to Tim Tebow's mission efforts stayed the same while he was a Gator? It's complicated and drawing the lines are extremely difficult.

This is why I think the NCAA, SEC and Auburn need to come down on this immediately and hard. For Auburn to look the other way just because he's their player who can deliver a NC is simply wrong. Fans feelings are pretty clear once again. Auburn defending it's self just as Bama has versus opposing schools calling Auburn a dirty cheating program. It takes a lot to remove a star player when you need him. I hope Auburn does the right thing instead of continuing to justify it's legal position.

What is more satisfying? An Auburn win against Bama with Cam or without Cam? For me An Auburn win without Cam carries a much stronger message to college football regarding clean recruiting.

Eactly! All in, lets win the NC because we have no chance without him. It would be a much larger story for Auburn to man up and sit him and win without him. It looks like that is too late to do, they chosen their road.

Well, in the old days, Huey P. Long would just hire the father into a soft state job and the athlete-son would just naturally attend LSU. Isn't that the way it should be?

Theyve added Pausible Deniability to the Auburn Creed.

Auburn will have the ones (Chizik) that were in the dark lead the "We didn't know!" defense.

Pat Dye and boosters will hide in the corner.

Auburn will try and blame SEC for not acting fast enough.

And last, they will point to it happening everywhere and not being a "Fambly" thing.
