false. just factually untrue. it's hilarious that auburn people try to put this on state. if state was trying to buy newton but he ended up at auburn - fill in the blank.

He bailed out of Miss State because the situation was being investigated and he'd have been ineligible at Miss State
yeah. that's why. not that auburn outbid state. my word. it's crazy that being this obtuse doesn't even bother you

what i have said is factually true.

But the biggest thing that has upset Tide fans is what’ Saban has done politically which was going against at least half the fan base and the state of ala


Saban helped democrats to impeach trump for nothing !!!

Saban did this by helping a democrat senator to stay a democrat senator joe manchin who promptly tried to stop the voters from deciding to re elect. So he voted with his democrats to throw him out of office

I’m now voting to throw Saban out of Alabama after being a fan since the Bear

So I will vote to stop buying anything of the tide or u of ala until he is fired by the university

how can you people be so ignorant. you've never read about the cam newton loophole? yes, the "rules of amateurism" were broken according to emmert. just google cam newton loophole. he should have been ruled ineligible but was allowed to play based on a technicality. and of course if he had been ruled ineligible like he should have been, auburn would have had to forfeit every game he played in.

it's crazy people still don't get this story right. it seriously is like flat earthers.

Auburn ruled him ineligible because of what went on at Miss St and the SEC and NCAA reinstated him.

Now, let me be clear. I'm not blaming Miss St. It appears they did the right thing when they heard what Kenny Rogers was doing. Rogers told Cecil Newton (in no way am I defending Cecil) he could get $100,000 for him/Cam if Cam signed with Miss St. Rogers then turned around and told the Miss St coaches that he had spoken with Cam/Cecil and that Cam would sign with Miss St for $180,000. Rogers was going to clear $80,000 for brokering the deal. To Miss St's credit, Mullin notified the SEC and/or the NCAA about what Rogers was trying to do. Cam backed out of signing with State because he realized that he would probably be declared ineligible if he had signed. Therefore, Cam signed with Auburn, who was not involved in the Rogers' deal.

I'm not saying that Auburn did not give Cam anything because we all know how the system works. What I'm saying is the $180,000 that everyone talks about is from the Rogers' deal. A former teammate of Rogers was on the Finebaum show and told that story. Obviously, I do not know for sure because I wasn't there, but the people that spin the narrative that Auburn outbid State don't know any more than you or I do. Since the SEC and NCAA reinstated Cam, it proved that they could find no evidence that Auburn paid Cecil/Cam. And no one will ever convince me that the SEC/NCAA was "protecting" Auburn...especially if you look at the history of previous Auburn probations. Each one was very minor when you look at what some of the football and basketball blue bloods have done and gotten away with.

not even a relevant part of the discussion. the discussion is what the ncaa should have done but couldn't do because of the loophole. they admitted as much as i stated earlier.

this is the second time an auburn fan said "auburn said..." as if that has any bearing on the matter.

Cam backed out of signing with State because he realized that he would probably be declared ineligible if he had signed
again, auburn fans being naive. state got outbid. that's why cam ended up at auburn. anyone who is older than 5 years old knows this

quote:

my problem is not with auburn. auburn played the system. my problem is with the spineless ncaa and the corrupt sec. they should have suspended newton at the least until the investigation was completed. but that ridiculous manufactured subcommittee stepped in and said there might be a loophole and cam was allowed to play which is absurd. moreover, the sec knew about the improprieties way beforehand and did nothing. the whole affair was a clown show.

quote:

the people that spin the narrative that Auburn outbid State don't know any more than you or I do
"spin" and "narrative." newton was being shopped around, not just to auburn which is why the ncaa said the rules of amateurism were broken. plenty of players have been busted for way less. the sec should have ruled him ineligible before the season started and no schools would have been under threat to be punished or forfeit games.

it's astonishing how some auburn fans have pretzeled this story up. probably the biggest example of a star player getting an exception in the history of the sport and the worst incompetence/corruption by the ncaa in the history of the sport.

It’s impossible to disprove a negative. Keep ranting away, but Auburn still won the National Title that year. Being a keyboard warrior won’t change the final score in a single game.
