An interesting read from TI a friend sent me this morning...little long, but worth the time,Passing on some info -

Hey guys. I thought I'd email this to you. This is from a UA trustee who is also involved with sports agent Bus Cook. He also does some work with the Sexton crew so he is plugged in to what is going on. He sends out an email about once every 3-4 months with a lot of info.___________________________________________

The first thing I’d like to do is congratulate Auburn University on a great season. Just like we did last year, Auburn won it on the field.
I’ve seen many claim it is a tainted title, but until it is proven that Auburn had shady dealings with the Newton family I will not try and tarnish their NC by talking about allegations that have yet to be proven.

Mega sports agent and good friend of mine, Bus Cook, signed Cameron Newton. Before Bus would sign Cameron he made him take a polygraph
test administered by one of the CIA’s top testers. Cameron passed every question that was asked of him. The test is on video and has
been sent to every NFL team. In Bus’s opinion, Cameron can have a better career than Brett Favre. That is not me talking, that is Bus
Cook. He says Cameron has the arm strength of John Elway. A faster release than Dan Marino and is as accurate as Tom Brady. On top of
that, he is 6’5” 250 pounds and has been clocked at a 4.48 40 yard dash. Bus told me Cameron scored a 27 the first time he took his
practice Wonderlic exam. I hope Cameron falls to the Dolphins, but I think after the Combine, he could be the first player taken in the
draft.
-----------------------------------
We have been dealing with some very aggressive Negative Recruiting from our rivals (mainly Auburn, UGA, and South Carolina) telling
prospective recruits that Coach Saban has zero faith in his backup players and refuses to put them in the game. They are using Barron
playing almost half the Auburn game with a debilitating injury instead of putting in a competent back up. Our Rivals are telling kids “look, Alabama has a bench full of 4* and 5* kids yet he (Coach Saban) has no
confidence to insert them into the game when someone is injured do you want to go and deal with something like that”. These are teenagers and
can be very impressionable especially when the topic of playing time comes up because every kid these days wants to start from Day One on
campus. This greatly hurt us with the Mitchell kid from Georgia he wanted to go to Alabama but Richt and crew kept hammering this point
home to the kid.
--------------------------
There is some more about Bama coaches, etc... This is from a BAMA forum, I have zero idea if it is true, but found it interesting...

They should have put him in the game. They would have won state.

No way the CIA sends one of its people to administer a polygraph test on a football player. Mostly because the CIA does not officially operate domestically.

While Alabama has missed on some guys we wanted, why does someone need to reason a potential top ranked recruiting class? The depth chart is going to recruit against us, whether rival coaches do or not. And Alabama played a lot of guys this year. If someone can't see that, they didn't watch Alabama play. We rotate tons of players, especially on defense.

Not sure why people would do negative recruiting in the backup not playing aspect. If any negative recruiting was going on, I would expect it to be on the roster depth in general, where would you fit in if you sign with them.

Right now, it amazes me that Bama is still trying to get a few other players. I know they are good but there should be a line when being 10 to 12 over roster is just too much. And before anyone says "what will Auburn do next year?" The answer is, I don't know. I don't think that we will oversign up to 95 to 97 kids to have to cut them down, at least I hope we don't.

Thanks for posting this. I definitely needed a good laugh before Obama pisses me off in about 4 hours from now.

Yes. He will take a lie detector test for his agent but refused to allow his transcripts from UF to be seen.


I would love to see the questions asked.

Cam's agent: "Cam, are you all in?"
Cam: "Hell's yea!"

Cam's agent: "Uh Cam, did your diddy, Cecil, the preacha main do anything wrong?"
Cam: "Not that I am aware of, in fact he and God are tight! Daddy was broke until God put a Fiesta Bowl ticket wif full airfare & hotel accommodations in the collection plate with a note that you are with God and we are all fambly."

etc...
