re: Per Brooks - HBO Real Sports Special - 4 ex-AU players admit to being paid

Aubs knows they didn't cheat because the players signed a document saying they didn't.

Auburn's statement said: "Auburn Athletics respectfully declines to comment on these alleged claims apparently made by a few former football players. Compliance with all NCAA and Southeastern Conference rules is a major emphasis and top priority for all of our athletic programs at Auburn University."

All four players signed a standard NCAA document each year that affirmed they did not break any NCAA rules.

"They lied to somebody, either to Auburn or HBO. It calls their credibility into question," said someone close to the Auburn Athletics Department who asked not to be identified.
