I am really having a great time with all of this.

Even if nothing were to come of it, I've had fun.




Me, too!

I'll admit, I'll be shocked if nothing comes of it, but this week has been enjoyable.

As a Bama fan, I must admit part of me would love to see AU's wins vacated, the other part wants to see AU go to the BCSNC game and win it for the SEC.

A part of me would love to see AU get creamed with probation, as did USC. Not necessarily because I hate AU, but if any school was stupid enough to do something this dumb they deserve it. We all knew deep down the NCAA was gonna go on a tear to make up for what they had to do to their baby, USC.

Then part of me wants the NCAA to find nothing. If they do, and AU did pay, the SEC as a whole will suffer. I hope Bama is clean, but I'm not stupid and I don't want the NCAA to start looking through everything. I'm sure no major school does.....

i saw your name for the eleventy billionth time a second ago... and i read it out loud like chris farley on tommy boy or david spade or whatever when they got stoned off of the nitrous oxide and started saying "row-add... rouuude... roague.... road"

well, i read it row-add... and wondered, "hrm, i don't know how this is said." so i asked.

Folks, no one asked Mullen, Chizik, Stoops or Kiffen for money

Sheesh!

All that was said was nothing out of the ordinary happened during recruitment, because it didnt. Mullen didnt know til Bond told. Tenn never offered Cam, so no money would have been discussed. OKLA was never really in it.

It was between Moo St and Aubie. Moo St copped. We just dont know what Aubie did. However, their booster, when approached, either paid or kept quiet. Either way, Wrong move.

Auto-name function on Everquest

My first character was auto-named to Roaadiel.

I dropped the -iel.

Just kinda became my online handle.

Wait a minute. The article also says that Bell said he talked to the NCAA earlier this week. So if that's true and Bell told them this, why is Cam still eligible?

Also, Rogers never said Bell talked directly to Cecil, so how would Bell be able to confirm that?

Once again, WAAAYYY too many holes from the Miss. St. side.

It's just strange that nobody from AU, Oklahoma, Tennessee or any other school that was recruiting Cam have said anything about his dad asking for money. Why would he only ask one school for money and nobody else?



JMO

He asked other schools and they didn't turn him in

When you turn someone in you unleash a shitstorm and invite the NCAA to spend weeks on your campus talking to you

Much simpler to say "nope, didn't see or hear anything... sorry"

For anyone with a brain, best case scenario has shifted to vacating wins this season. There is no reason to assume Cam is going to retain his eligibility if tapes actually exist of a freaking payment plan.
Props to you bro. Me and my brother were talking about this yesterday, and yes it's fun for us that are not fans of Auburn, but I know if we were in this situation I wouldn't be able to handle it. Don't know what I would do.

It really sucks for die hard fans that give a little money to University and go to games every so often. I mean ya'll had no part in this and it just happens to be affecting you personally.

theres no reason for tennessee and oklahoma to jump head first into this mess publicly...and thats assuming they were anything more than free trips for newton, which i doubt


Even more,

What Miss St. is hanging their hat on is that they reported it.

If Oklahoma and Tennessee were to come out now and knowledge they were solicited by the Newtons and did not report it.

Could the NCAA punish them for not reporting the solictation? I would think they are required to report this.

Rogers said they were together when he made the call. The Rev might have been caught on the tape chatting in the background, ya think?
