Just to remind you - from Cecil and Cam's own mouths, before this whole thing broke-

But this mentions nothing of Cam knowing about the money stuff. Just that Cecil told his son to go to AU. How does that directly mean "Cam knew about everything?".

Also, I had this pointed out too me and it has a lot of correlation to what is going on.


Here is the full text of the NCAA's statement ...

The NCAA student-athlete reinstatement staff has reinstated the eligibility of University of Alabama football student-athletes Julio Jones and Mark Ingram based on a condition of repayment.

According to the facts of the case submitted by Alabama, the student-athletes received impermissible food, lodging, transportation and entertainment from an individual with whom one of the student-athletes had become acquainted prior to enrolling in college.

Consistent with NCAA membership requirements, the institution reported the violation and declared the student-athletes ineligible. As part of the reinstatement request, the institution required the student-athletes to make repayment of the value of the impermissible benefits to charity.

During the reinstatement process, the NCAA staff considers a number of factors including guidelines established by the NCAA Division I Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement, relevant case precedent, the student-athlete's responsibility for the violation, as well as any mitigating factors presented by the institution.


The fishing case had a very similar ruling as this one, but Juio and ingram had to repay the benefits they received. In Cam's case, no benefits were received, so he didn't have to repay anything before being reinstated. Just found it interesting.
