re: The NCAA is hot garbage

I really have no clue how the NCAA works, but wasn't the Newton scenario one where Auburn had lined up all the facts as far as the situation, had the information sent to the NCAA, at that point they declared them ineligible and asked for reinstatement?

Are they doing an investigation in the Floyd case to actually get the information they need? Clearing and infractions are different offices, and being cleared is a much shorter process than infraction investigations (i am pretty sure).

I think it just comes down to that Newton's situation was one where Auburn had time to prepare for it, Floyd's seems to be one that popped up as a surprise.


In the end, it is shitty that Floyd has to sit. Let the guy play.
