If Cam is cleared I'm giving up on college football. Seriously.

How utterly absurd would it be to allow fathers to shop their sons around with the fallback defense that their sons didn't know about it?

There's NO WAY the NCAA can allow this and maintain credibility as the governing body of an amateur sport. No way.

That's not Finebaum's info. He's just tweeting about an article written by an Auburn writer, Phillip Marshall. This is Phillip Marshall's info.

If this was up to the SEC I think AU could get away with it. Now that the NCAA is getting national pressure, the fricking hammer is going to drop on these goat humpers.

This shite is just becoming a bad soap opera. Cam being ineligible won't come down this year any way so, as an LSU fan, we need them to go to the BCSNG so we have a shot at the Sugar.

Of course you won't than it makes all the false statements and bashing everyone has done justified in their minds....It makes it easier so you don't have to say you all were wrong in prosecuting Auburn and Cam on SECR and in the media. No worries AU didn't need your support the last couple of weeks and AU will not need it when its all cleared up either. Enjoy your week.

If they get off scot free, doesn't that basically send the message that family members can do whatever they please as long as the athlete doesn't know about it?



Doesnt that happen now?



no, why do you say that?

If the NCAA fails to rule Cam ineligible it would be open season for any father, uncle, grandmomma or whoever to ask for money and just say the kid didn't know about it

This would render NCAA rules on compensation nearly irrelevant

You could have summed this up a lot easier by just saying it makes him a fricking idiot.

I would think that even the most homer Auburn fan could at least admit that the Newton's were involved in some shady shite. Auburn might get cleared but there's no way you'll ever make anyone believe Cam shouldn't at least be ineligible.

Phillip Marshall wouldnt know the truth if it bit him. He is just spinning it the way he is told to do.
