No actually they do. Especially when they weren't aware of the wrong doing until the information was brought to the Athletic Department.
Guess what we did with our coach? We booted his arse. We didn't give him a new hat and a new towel to wave around like a 12 year old punk.

All he said was that there wasn't enough evidence to find Auburn guilty. Not that there was evidence that Auburn was innocent.
What does that even mean? That's like me saying I haven't found any evidence that you aren't a serial killer.
Here's what he actually said:
quote:
Emmert said. "There was no evidence that Auburn University had anything to do with that or the student-athlete had anything to do with that, and under the rules that exist today, he could play ball."
Pretty tough to spin a direct quote like that from the head honcho. Hell, I'm a lawyer and even I know better than to try to split those hairs.

Generally teams over-penalize themselves, they just try to direct punishment in a specific area. LSU WAAAAAAY overpenalized itself.
Based on what? Your opinion? Your purple and gold heart that tells you every night before you go to sleep what a wonderful and special program LSU is. Give me a break.
Look at the facts, as admitted. Look at the history of the NCAA. They are the ones that will deal with these violations and render a punishment. Until then you, me and everyone else on this thread may as well go whistle dixie somewhere.
And I'm not an expert on this stuff so I may be wrong, but it seems to me that when teams rush to jump on the sword and self-penalize, the NCAA usually hits them harder then what they are "asking for" in effect.
You can say "but we fired the coach that cheated" and the NCAA is naturally just going to respond, "well you also hired him."

We aren't going down in flames. I think it is just a lot of Auburn fans want to get back at LSU fans for talking so much trash. Considering LSU just said they found, let me quote here,
quote:
But the LSU report also stated that thousands of improper phone calls between non-coaching football staffers and recruits, their families, high school coaches or administrators were discovered after the initial violations were reported in March.

We should have just paid hundreds of thousands of dollars instead of thousands of phone calls and been okay.....
Damn LSU for being good and doing it wrong

Actually, once the coaches found out about the rules being broken, they axed the coach, and the player left the football team.
He never once stepped on the football field.

Why are you Oregon fan now not Auburn fan?
It is Treason! ;)
Btw, back to this topic:
Wow, is LSU trying to avoid NCAA stiff punish by self impose football rectruiting and scholarship restrictions.
How many more SEC Schools will show up beside Auburn and LSU? Ark is in secondary violation not major.

Mostly LSU fans, but, unfortunately, my avatar change was the result of an Aubie that takes this too seriously and started a rant on people changing their Avs to root for Oregon against AU.
