it doesn't matter if cam knew or auburn knew.



it matters some

he's ineligible if he asked anyone... but if he asked Auburn then it's worse for them than just having to forfeit games

Laundered money, point shaving, payoffs, bribes, extortion etc.

This is what I think too. I think this has been business as usual throughout Cam's athletic Career, and Cecil's life. I would venture a guess that there is more than meets the eye with the churches also. And like the other poster said, I'm sure the other schools aren't gonna say, "We offered our usual, but they countered with a higher demand, so we turned him down. Hell, our 'Pay-'em-to-Play-'em' budget is only so much, we can't use it all on one guy!"

Come on. Where is he playing now? It is called a game of connect the dots. Take your great season and a one semester player and be happy. But, Auburn is truly fricked in the long run.

maybe the only thing that gets aubie to stop playing him -- a huge class action...virtually the entire state of louisiana as party plaintiffs

connect the dots doesn't work unless all the dots are there. Until someone is actually found from Auburn to have paid for Cam, how are we guilty? I can't say for fact what we did or didn't do, but you guys are stating as fact that we are guilty, but have no proof of any wrong doing accept for the fact that Cecil and MSU discussed money. I can't understand how we are guilty if nobody can find any wrong doing on our part. Now if it does come out that we did something illegal, then we clean house.

you sure?

aubie is giving the rest of us the finger

they know: rogers solicited msu, cecil solicited msu, cam will be found to be ineligible

yet they play him anyway, screwing lsu out of a shot

seems pretty clear to me

talk about close the doors at aubie

you caught us, we are playing Cam so LSU won't make it. Not that we want to make sure we make it or anything

The real issue is if Cecil asked anybody for money (MSU) then Cam is ineligible to play at any school. Auburn knows this, continues to play him and will have to forfeit all wins this year - and exposed themselves big time in the last 2 weeks. This is a mess for AU-SEC-NCAA.
