Auburn didn't win the SEC until the year after Barkley left...with Chuck Person still there.

Taking money is a pre-req on the plains. Wonder how many BBQs Pearl has thrown?

This is possibly the first news article put on the internet.

Alabama accusing Auburn of cheating is like Snooki telling Halle Berry she's ugly.

Wow! LSU players have apparently been taking money from agents every since Billy Cannon in the 1950's

The Heisman Trophy winner checked into a Philadelphia hotel under a false name, the better to keep things hush-hush. The agent handed him a contract, along with two bonus checks totaling $10,500.
The young man signed.
Roughly a month later, the same Heisman Trophy winner placed a call with another agent, this one promising a more lucrative contract, along with a $20,000 bonus, ownership of five gas stations, half-interest in an as-yet-unformed eponymous oil company and, just because, a Cadillac for his father.
The young man eagerly agreed.
Oh, and two days after that, he played his final college game.
Pop quiz: Is this part of a current college sports scandal, like the one at North Carolina, where a former assistant football coach allegedly introduced players to an agent?
Is it the story behind former Southern Cal running back Reggie Bush recently returning his stiff-armed statuette?
Is it one of the many unsavory revelations contained in former agent Josh Luchs' tell-all cover story in last week's Sports Illustrated?

C'mon man, switch up the MO a little. The predictability is getting stale.

If I am deflecting, at least the examples I am bringing up are legitimate. I can still remember numerous bammers constanty trying to deflect from threads about how crazy their fan base is by bringing up ridiculous examples of the behavior of other fan bases

Auburn cheats and is a corrupt academic institution. Water is wet.
This is rich coming from a gumptard. You people invented cheating. Not a surprise that some of the best at it including Ford, Sherrill, Dye, Pell, etc all were on Bear Bryants teams or staff.

Article does note that Barkley already said the same that he took money from agents, on the Dan Patrick radio show 4 years ago.
Barkley is awesome.
Barkley is awesome.

I think everyone already knows bama pretty much invented cheating in college football. No need to state the obvious there and derail the thread and discussion about the points Barkley is making about bball players being one and done.

In a league full of dirty schools, Auburn is the filthiest. Got to tip my hat to them, though.

Like Barkley said, bama accusing AU of cheating is like Snookie calling Halle Berry ugly.
Everyone knows bama invented cheating in football. It's all gumps really have in life. Don't worry lil Gump fella. The rest of us pity you guys and don't mind if you don't understand.
We get it.

Who was the bama player that got a $500 "loan" from one of their coaches back in 2012?
