This is true. He knows his stuff, but I would agree that he is always going to have a bias for the individual player or institution over the NCAA.

Oh yeah, I could definitely tell he knew what he was talking about, but the whole time I was listening to him it seemed like he was unconsciously looking for the string to pull which would be most useful in clearing Cam. He probably doesn't even realize he's doing it.

I don't buy this defense. It would establish a dangerous precedence. Kids would be asking for things left and right.

His resume means nothing.

Bill Clinton has an impressive resume, was a Rhodes scholar, and was caught in a bold face lie. Smart people are just as capable as the rest of us as doing dumb things or making completely illogical arguments that anyone with any common sense can refute with ease.

Dude is an Auburn apologist who thinks State is the one with a problem, not Auburn. Yeah, that's why State reported concerns about Cam's recruitment to the SEC back in January. Then State must have cooked up some scheme because Mullen was bitter about losing out on Cam to Auburn. Genius.

I wouldn't argue with that, but his opinion on matters of NCAA violations is more informed than most on here bashing him for being an idiot. He may end up being absolutely wrong, but he has more knowledge about this stuff than most. He has challenged the NCAA and won, so he has at least some creditials to offer an opinion.

I'd be saying, "oh frick." I sure as hell wouldn't be blaming every damn person who comes to mind and making up some absurd story as to why that individual is conspiring against Alabama.

I damned sure wouldn't be blindly defending the Newton's.

Now, if I'm an Auburn fan right about now, I would want some answers from the AU administration. Both former (Pat Dye) and current administration.

Damn, the Auburn folks are blaming EVERYONE except the Newton's for this shite storm. ESNP/Thayer/Fox/CBS/Bonds/Rogers/Mullen/Meyer/MSU/UF/Bell/The freakin Devil.
