Danny Sheridan continues to make vague, unsubstantiated claims without backing them up with proof. Contrary to his claims of having an inside source with details on the Auburn investigation, the NCAA has not provided information to Sheridan or anyone else. As a matter of due diligence, the NCAA spoke with Sheridan this week to determine if he had any facts pertaining to the investigatiion. Sheridan, however, did not provide any information to the enforcement staff and certainly did not provide a name. Instead, he unsuccessfully attempted to gather information for his own use.
So the NCAA just officially stated that there is an active investigation of Auburn.

He has been pretty mouthy in general. I suspect they commented because Sheridan, instead of going away, went on ESPN and claimed to have sources inside the NCAA giving him information that the NCAA says isn't true.
Again. If he chooses not to tell them, how can they definitively say he doesn't have sources? That would be kind of dumb to say, if he chose not to tell them anything, wouldn't it? Wouldn't the only way they could factually and correctly say that, is for him to tell them no, he did not have a source? Otherwise, they're now assuming something?

Again, they seem to be breaking from decades of M.O. in this case, constantly talking about it and making statements during the investigation. Just seems odd and out of character for them.

They didnt deny he had sources, they just denied he knows anything about the auburn situation ans went on to further say he was just trolling for info to help himself out

When some AU fans say there isn't an investigation, they are referring to a formal investigation. There is no formal investigation, as we have received no letter

Auburn and everyone affiliated with Auburn that matters has continually said in varying manners that all the allegations are false. I don't know why you'd expect more of them.
You want to know what I think? I think the Cam Newton saga is going to go down as a three ring circus. I think several media members severely overstepped their bounds and ruined their credibility in the process and many people lost their minds and engulfed themselves with the case. I know the NCAA is looking into Cam Newton's recruitment as well as Auburn's recruitment of a few LA boys in relationship to street agents. I don't think Auburn finds themselves in any trouble at the end of any of this. There's just nothing there. People have put forth lies and rumors but they've all been discounted.

Think he might be slightly biased in his opinion?

Why is Emmert feeling such a need to comment on investigations, when the NCAA has alway been ironclad and stating they don't comment on investigations or possible investigations. He's been mouthy on this one, has he not, compared to their past M.O.?
I was wondering the same thing. I guess they are trying to come out and say that they don't have sources that leak that kind of information - but they went a bit further with him - they chunked him under the bus and downright embarrassed him with a statement. Strange and out of character for the NCAA if you ask me . . . especially considering how many other (BS) reports have come out without a peep.
I'm just ready for some real football.

Technically, correct. They said..

Now the question remains, do they mean, officially, by this statement? If so, then this really changes nothing, except that they couldn't get Sheridan to divulge any information as to who he claims leaked info to them. This entire statement is much ado about nothing, just as Sheridan's was, until a NOI is made or their investigation is over.

Again, never heard anything out of Auburn, they keep it QT. If the investigation was over, of course, they would have been a huge deal made of it. Why so quiet on the plains?
Maybe when bammer starts giving weekly press releases on the suitgate scandal Auburn might so the same on the non-camgate.

Questions...
When did the NCAA's investigation of Da U become active? Formal? Has Da U received the LOI? What category does the last five months of Da U dealio fall under...formal or active???

You get the impression that football isn't played on the field anymore, everyone is just wanting to break the story of scandal.

They don't however know who told him what, and the way they worded their statement, doesn't address that. It gives the appearance that they didn't tell him anything officially, but addresses nothing to what Sheridan has claimed. It's much ado about nothing.
