So? The president of the NCAA is obviously an AU fan because you guys still have a NC.

Who? Ross Greenburg? Then he should have been able to tell Mr. Bernstein - if this whole conspiracy theory is true - that it would be pretty stupid to hatch a plot to have Auburn players lie about being paid. HBO could can them both and their reputations would be ruined.

it doesnt change the fact that auburn paid players who cares who the executive producer is


Fact?

Non AU journalists have called out the 'reporting' of the this HBO Doc.

What I did find strange is HBO’s defense of the show leading up to its airing. Andrea Kremer, the reporter of the Auburn segment, made the radio rounds defending HBO’s methods, which have been called into question by some. What caught my attention was her statement on the WJOX Roundtable (7:00 mark) that, as a journalist, you have to “go and give other people the opportunity to respond, and if you don’t have both sides, you can’t present it.” SportsByBrooks reported on February 23 that McClover’s high school coach and two assistants refuted his claims to HBO, but none of those interviews

Why is that every negative story that comes out about Auburn, Alabama is to blame? Do you not see this is why everybody says Auburn is Alabama's little brother. Plus Bama has enough people in high places if they wanted to take you down it would have happen a long time ago. This just sounds like your crying to mom little brother.

With all due respect, this HBO piece has been nationally criticized by fellow journalists. Some even called it shady journalism.

The fact that the executive producer is a Bammer is very noteworthy.

SO one journalist on Finebaum who yall usually complain about as being not credible comes onto a show whose audience includes Alabama and Auburn sports includng TN and that makes his opinion count. the spin is amazing.
