If John Bond is involved then it has to be true and its on the internet...double truth? Should I take this insider info to my short term investment broker (bookie) and bet the house?



Short answer...
Yes

I didn't follow it all that closely but I think MSU's side of things was more of reporting it after they got wind of it than discussing the possibility of paying him. From what i understand Rogers contacted Bond and he reported to the University. Also I don't think there is anything illegal about said "talks" unless an exchange takes place. That could be wrong though.
I guess my point is that MSU had a former player (Kenny Rogers) acting as a broker/agent on behalf of MSU football, he had discussions, meetings and talks with the parent of a JUCO QB. Yet, somehow the NCAA had no problem with it. Hell, for all the public knows, the NCAA never even investigated it.

Now, fast forward to 2012 and low and behold, a MSU Booster is named/involved in providing lodging & meals for yet another "street agent" from Memphis.

Nothing wrong with him doing this to my knowledge. Doesn't appear that he provided any benefits.

Mississippi State needs an upset win over the Crimson Tide to go 8-0 for the second time in school history. The first time was in 1999. And the Bulldogs lost. To Alabama. In Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Fail. He was acting on behalf of Cam Newton. State banned him from campus, douche.

Rogers was nothing on "behalf of MSU football." He was acting as an agent for Cam Newton and family trying to make a cut. Not a State booster, nor had he maintained contact with former teammates prior to calling John Bond and being promptly turned in...

Dude was trying to help himself out... he didn't give a shite about MSU. Thank God that John Bond does...
