"I think the most I took was $20,000. It made me stay in school another year. $20,000 is not a lot of money, but I was able to do some stuff for my mother and grandmother and I had some spending money. I'm cool. I don't have to go into the real world of the NBA after one college season."
According to Barkley, Auburn's athletic department discouraged him from taking "serious classes," fearing he could flunk them and become academically ineligible. He believes the college athletic system is "broken" and there is more cheating in recent years because more money is at stake.
Auburn cheats and is a corrupt academic institution. Water is wet.

That must be how we got him to not transfer to Bama.

Money was from agents not Auburn. Everybody with a competitive athletic program outside of a Stanford type school encourages their athletes to take easier classes.

It still shocks me that Bama fans can say this with a straight face. Oh well.

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.
