USC and the Bush family are wondering about this.

The distinction is obvious: Bush's agents paid up and Mississippi State didn't.

If Bush had talked to Cal about a pay for play and went to USC instead it would be the same issue. Since Bush went to USC and took money, well he could have gone anywhere and taken money, he was going to be ruled ineligible. If the NCAA finds out that MSU or Auburn paid for Newton then the NCAA could rule him ineligible. Right now we have people mixing up actually being paid and talking about being paid.

Major fricking differences in the Newton and Bush cases are:
Money/goods actually changed hands between USC/USC Boosters and Bush/Bush's family, it hasn't in Newtons case.
The NCAA had proof of it in Bush's case, the NCAA doesn't have proof of it in Newton's case.
Bush played for USC, Newton didn't play for MSU where this all happened.
A USC coach had knowledge of it and didn't report it, MSU reported it.
Bottom line: Only the super clueless cite Bush/USC as comparable.

Make the new rule, then Auburn will just pay-off the 4th cousin or family dog. NCAA is such a joke right now. This rule will fix NOTHING!
-Cheat on a test = 1-4 game suspension.
-Dad extorts $100,000 from a school's alumni = no penalty
I mean WTF?!?!
