I just want to know if Mr. Al-Betar's company, TSA Trading, INC, doing business as T-Town Menswear in Tuscaloosa, Alabama is actually selling the clothing attire (suits, sports coats/blazers, slacks, shirts, ties and accessories) to the players (at retail or with discount) or to the University.
If he is selling aforementioned merchandise to the players at a discount, is this same discount openly available to all students of the University of Alabama?
If he is selling the aforementioned merchandise to the University of Alabama, were there sales in excess of $7500 or more within a fiscal year period, and if so, did he and the University of Alabama openly (public record) participate in the State of Alabama Competitive Bid Law?

So you are saying Alabama fans made up the fact that Cam's dad admitting shopping his son?
No, dude is saying Bama fans haven't started any rumors regarding Cam. That's all I'm disputing
I'm assuming you agree with him?

I think he's referring to the FedEx story in which we received a letter from the ncaa made up by a Bammer on either bol or tidesports.

Didn't the announcement that Blakely has been denied playing time this comeing year come out very soon after that?

and the Fbi having wiretaps rumors, scott moore claiming he has tapes that prove we paid Cam, Bama mods acting like JLee and saying we have gotten a NOA b/c some fedex bama fan said so.

Like a week or two after. I doubt it took someone two weeks to read it.

Moore said he had "heard" the tapes from the Mississipi State guy.

All the coaches were out of town. Or that was the story then.

It took a week to say Eric Smith had been arrested and kicked off the team. Just saying. Au isn't exactly that forthcoming with information.

They may have been, but we don't know for sure. Anyways, the guy on bol or tidesports claimed it was a NOA or NOI and not just a letter saying Mike Blakely wouldn't be able to play next year.
Posted on 7/24/11 at 11:25 am to Alahunter
imo, what fedex-BOL-Bamafreak was likely referring to was the Blakely letter... just b/c it became public a couple days ago doesn't mean AU didn't sit on the info for some time. It certainly wasn't a NOI, NOA, or anything else associated with possible NCAA sanctions.

I don't really think he said that. I think he pointed out that the rumors that Alabama fans start usually have a seed in facts that have been established, which no doubt have been added to or embellished upon. Similarly, Auburn fans, in the past, have worked to fabricate and set up documents to validate a completely made up rumor. He is pointing out the difference.
Whether or not you are unable to distinguish between the point Alahunter is making, or his agenda, and your own agenda of propaganda is your issue.

I get taken aback when someone of reason understands the point I'm attempting to get across.

Alahunter you seem to keep up with rules and stuff so a question for you.
When I was in school in the early 90's if you were on scholly you could still get grant money. Which was about $3200 a qtr back then. Can you still get the grant now?

Thanks for the tip. Do you have a link to their site?
It would be great to have them research this issue for me, as I have a financial interest in the outcome of this. Given the location of my business, I could easily outfit the athletic teams of both Auburn and Alabama. Additionally, since my company already provides clothing for men and women, I should be able to underbid any potential competitor.
PS: I can also order Sansabelt slacks, waist 34. As for the inseam of 26, I already offer free alterations!
(Edit) I also have a variety of men's leather jackets and sports coats.

So it's a fact FBI has wiretaps proving Cam was paid for?
It's a fact that Auburn got a NOA two weeks ago because the fedex guy who delivered it tipped off Bama message board posters?
It's a fact that Scott Moore heard tapes that proves Cam was paid for?
It's a fact that the Atlanta grade changing scandal is linked to AU football?

There's no difference between the two as you're seeming to suggest. If Au fans are making up rumors they're no different than bama fans making up rumors

This thread shows quite a bit about people.
1. Bama fans - those complaining need to grow a pair. Auburn has dealt with a lot of rumors on here over the last year. Boohooing rumors just shows insecurity. It is obvious after a year of being hit with rumors, some Auburn posters are enjoying trolling.
2. Auburn fans - as much as you call the ATPB thread tinfoil hat stuff, it shows how much that thread actually bothers you. In the last week a fake thread was started about a 3PM breaking story and this article was made to look like it was a bad thing. After a year of rumors, I get it. It still looks a bit pathetic.
3. The article is titled "Alabama compliance issues cease-and-desist letter to business." It really doesn't spell out doom. Even if it did, a message board argument isn't going to sway the NCAA.
