So what was Finebaum referring to?

He mentioned the HBO special next month. We all know about this. However, he said something along the lines of "one of the focuses of which will be on Auburn including an explosive allegation" (paraphrasing)

I don't think that is Newton related. I doubt it is Sean Nelson related. Any one have an idea or know someone who claims to know?

(I fully expect comments about "bammers wanting it to be something that isn't there", etc from Auburn fans. Before you jump on that predicable train, let me say that I think there would be reason for 11 out of 12 SEC schools to have a cautious eye on the HBO doc. No one is as pure as the driven snow in this conference, but some are much dirtier than others).

If it doesnt involve Cam, it will be about troopers dealings in LA.

IMO most of the college sports world want to hear about the Newton saga more than anything. We aren't some perennial NC contender, so simply us having recruiting violations won't be very flashy for consumption of much of the sports world. They want to see big news about Newton.

On another note, ANY revelations about Auburn will be big news in the Southeast.

So I would assume, then, that you & others in LA have heard something other than the Sean Nelson stuff. I can't imagine that being considered "explosive" more than a month after the initial report unless there is more detail.

Is Troop up to more than just the Sean Nelson allegations?

I think its about Saban sitting with young Sanders at the basketball game Saturday night. This is going to make SMU in '87 look like Sunday School.

A couple of moments ago it sounded like Finebaum alluded to perhaps info proving/claiming that Cam knew what was going on.

McClover saying he got paid in 2002 is what I have heard the HBO allegation is about.

It will be more bad press, but that is it.

Can't imagine that is it. Not very explosive. Although, I guess if a guy drafted in the late rounds (or undrafted?) was getting paid then one could easily deduce that other, better players (Cadillac, Brown, Campbell, etc) were too.

Side note - I would have given McClover $20 to stop embarrassing Chris Capps & destroying Brodie Croyle.

FWIW, I wouldnt doubt that. He was always throwing money around at the bar, buying drinks like it was going out of style.

It is about the SEC in gerneral. They have been spotted on a few campuses

This morning on Jox they were talking something about Cam wanting to make some kind of confession.
I am not sure what they were talking about, or exactly what he said, but they were discussing whether this would be a good time to clear the soul before the draft. They said something about wanting to clear the air about what happened in Florida. Did anyone else hear this, and what they were talking about?
