Wishful Auburn fans are making an assumption that the coach whose scam required NBA talent level players on his roster, did not do anything improper until they were on the roster. Even though, in this very case, there appears to be evidence that the scam and the shoe company $ was being used to get the players to choose a certain school.

Also, it is naive to think that a head coach,who already has baggage, is going to end up unscathed when his top assistant was paying at least two of his players.

Stil, this is a great exercise in observing confirmation bias in action...
I doubt Auburn will want go take Bruce into battle in an NCAA investigation. He bold faced lied to them about a backyard BBQ ~ doubtful he'd be able to tell the truth about something this massive.

Probably depends on what they turn up in their internal investigation. If the only evidence of wrong doing is what is in the indictment, I don't think it will be a big problem for Bruce. However, if there were other issues that will now be found because this investigation shines a light on the program, then all bets are off.

You're usually one of the most reasonable Bama fans on here, but you've lost the plot dude

Auburn doesn't want to go in front of the NCAA with Pearl, who the NCAA dislikes for lying to them (about a ridiculously minor incident) - Fair

"there's no way Pearl could tell the truth on this!" - bizarre
