Your own Senior AD for Compliance stated in early November (BEFORE Cecil admitted to being involved):
"If a person, in this case Kenny Rogers, was acting on behalf of the school, then it's the school's problem. If that person acted on behalf of the family without their knowledge then the player is eligible. If the person acted on behalf OF the family and ANYBODY in the family had knowledge of the action then there is a problem. As we have said, the Newton family, his dad, and Cam himself have said there was no contact."
- Rich McGlynn, Senior Athletic Director for Compliance
This statement was made by YOUR head of compliance BEFORE Cecil eventually changed course and admitted guilt.
Now, let's compare this with the NCAA's statements:
"According to facts of the case agreed upon by Auburn University and the NCAA enforcement staff, the student-athlete’s father and an owner of a scouting service worked together to actively market the student-athlete as a part of a pay-for-play scenario in return for Newton’s commitment to attend college and play football."
- NCAA Press Release
SUMMARY: Auburn's Sr. AD over compliance states that IF Cecil knew then there would be a problem. But AU didn't have to worry because he had no contact. Cecil later admits HE WAS actively involved. NCAA confirms Cecil's guilt.
So if your Compliance Director said you'd only have a problem if Cecil knew, and Cecil knew, then why is there no problem now?
Any explanation would be helpful.....

There was a problem so AU burn declared him ineligable.
They asked for reinstatement and the NCAA obliged....
So whats your point?

Umm it was a problem. I guess I missed the part where he said that problem would make Cam ineligible.

Serious? I honestly can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

Cecil Newton lied to us earlier, there was no reason not to believe him. Once he was deemed guilty, the NCAA notified that they believed Cecil was guilty. We then declare Cam ineligible....the rest is history.
Circumstances change with new information, the NCAA agreed with us

Ok, so that's 2 of you now. I'm starting to think you guys aren't being sarcastic.

I'd love a link to McGlynn's comments.

I'm trying to figure out what you're confused about by the other Auburn posters' responses


Posted on 12/3/10 at 7:23 pm to BRTiger2005
The NCAA and the SEC aren't bound by their own bylaws so you are barking up the wrong tree. There was too much money involved to not let Scam play.
Logic has no place in the those offices.

• Nov 11th Rogers admits, after previously denying, that in fact Cecil Newton had asked for money to recruit his son to play at MSU.
• Nov 11th Bill Bell says he was contacted and asked for payment by Cecil Newton and he has been interviewed by the NCAA
• Nov 12th, Cecil Newton admits to asking for money from MSU in exchange for Cam to play there.
Auburn PLAYED 2 GAMES AFTER THIS INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. And you think it's ok, to finish the regular season, make Cam ineligible for 12 hours in the middle of the week, and it's ok?

Is it possible that our administration was waiting on the NCAA's ruling?!?
Seriously guy, give it a rest, this is the way it happened (according to the information that has been released to the media), more information will likely come out in the coming months, we don't have the answers you are wanting so desperately....but I have a way to help alleviate some of the pain.
-Take your hand
-Grab and pull out the orange and blue Cam Newton *play toy* thats in your favorite orifice
-take 2 aspirin and go to bed

Auburn DID declare him ineligible Tuesday and Applied for reinstatement Wednesday? Why would I be being sarcastic???

the newton family takes bribes and auburn gives them. i guess more athletes should just send their parents to take bribes now. it worked for cam. really first class by both parties

Nope, not possible. NCAA can't suspend Cam. It's the university's responsibility to withhold a player the moment they have any reason to believe he may be ineligible for any reason.
This is why AJ Green sat out 4 games BEFORE the NCAA made an official ruling. (Yes different cases, yadda yadda yadda, but same concept).

Like it was ok for Julio and Ingram to be ineligible for a few weeks in the Spring when they received improper benefits. The SAME BYLAW that is said to be broken by Newton???

They play games in the Spring?

They were ruled ineligible immediately and the investigation took a couple of weeks. Whereas Cam was not ruled ineligible immediately and only a day was taken to determine his eligibility. The time frame and actions were completely different from what the NCAA and schools normally take.

Why? Because the way you keep saying it makes it sound like you believe it was justified.
Auburn plays Cam despite having A LOT of reasons to believe Cecil violated regulations during recruitment (including his own admission) and waits 18 days to declare him ineligible for virtually NO TIME, and you feel that's ok?
