Has Finebaum weighed in on the situation.
I think with this scandal A&M can officially be welcomed into the SEC.

Said by someone unfamiliar with the typical group/nursing home nurse.

An article back in March discussed the many autographs and possible forgeries of Manziel. One dealer said this:
Why would any sane person, especially a Heisman trophy winner sign multiple autographs, for free, to brokers?
1. It lessens the value of his autographs in the future when he can sign for cash.
2. It gives an appearance of impropriety with so many dealers making money off him.
And this is what the Aggies said about this:
So unless Manziel signed all of these believing it was for charity:
He lied to the AD.

“If Manziel did any kind of signing for a dealer, it would be unprecedented for a player with remaining eligibility, clearly would be outside the auspices of Texas A&M and would be exactly what someone in his position would be strongly advised not to do — devalue his own autograph before he’s even able to profit from it himself,” Chen said.

2. It gives an appearance of impropriety with so many dealers making money off him.
And this is what the Aggies said about this:
quote:
Responding to an email about autograph sales and the Leaf cards, David Batson, director of compliance at Texas A&M University, said: “Other than to charitable and nonprofit fundraisers, Johnny has indicated that he has never knowingly provided an autograph to someone who had indicated a plan to sell his autograph. As for the Leaf Mystery Redemption Cards, Johnny has informed the Athletic Compliance Office that he has not authorized these cards’ production or sale; he has not knowingly provided his autograph for use in these cards; and he will not receive any compensation from the sale of these cards. ...”
So unless Manziel signed all of these believing it was for charity:
quote:
Online verification databases show a single lot of 999 signed Manziel photos numbered sequentially. JSA authenticated 248 items and 376 items that came in in two batches that also are numbered sequentially.
He lied to the AD.

all very interesting, but with no payment they've got nothing.

I screwed that up, but you get the idea. That is Uncle Nate.

Do all of you Auburn fans feel obligated to defend Manziel because you're trying to pay back the karma gods or something?

My wife is an Aggie alum, so I really hope this is all smoke. After going through the Honey Badger dismissal least year, I can say it really takes the fun out of the beginning of the season.

Cam knowing and JM knowing are two different scenarios.
Dude, the Cam and JFF situations couldn't be any more different in practically every way other than the fact that they both involved money and both involved the NCAA.
Even seeing JFF compared to Cam is a riot to me.

too much practice asking you guys to use a bit of thought before picking up the pitchforks. Just second nature now.
with that said, i hope he burns. It's nice being on this side of it.

I can. I could. Has he signed autographs in the past willingly? Yes
What reason was given to JFF for the signing of autographs? "Jff was told by his PA, Fitch, that the next stop was to sign some autographs that were to be delivered to orphanages and children hospitals. Since JFF can't visit personally every hospital and orphanage, he felt that this would be some small part in helping these children"
