Any idea why he wasn;t arrested or isn't facing prison time like the others?


Not a central player in the racket would be my guess. Had a pretty minor role and I'm pretty sure they never found proof the money actually ended up transfered to Sexton's family.

Person was one of the ring leaders for this stuff at multiple schools with multiple people if I remember right, which is why he was one of the big fish.

. What does that have to do with anything? Everything you are chastising other schools for, your school did. You were oblivious, time to bow out

Right which is what I've been saying all along.


With Person and Evans there obviously is plenty of proof.

Person was with the suit guy trying to get in the scheme. Didn’t really have anything to do with Auburn only. Auburn players were just his best opportunity among others

The NCAA cares about controls and processes. Ours failed like Auburns failed. We both responded appropriately, proactively contacted the NCAA and held players out. Neither situation involved any sort of positive outcome for the programs (negative, actually, as the goal was to get great players to leave school ASAP).

On the surface it looks minor in comparison to some of the other stuff going on, but with the NCAA you never know what they'll decide.

misremembering.

Persons was only tied to taking money to steer current Auburn players to a financial advisor. There were no other schools.

You're obviously not biased.

Auburn had a coach arrested, two players had to sit out for a year, ya'll weren't allowed to recruit for like 4 months last year, and likely will face more penalties.

Alabama hasn't had any of that. If the FBI had the amount of proof that we did something that they have that ya'll and South Carolina did someone would've been arrested.

Knew this was coming because the NCAA like to take their sweet arse time. I Didn't think it'd be this severe though. Auburn and LSU will get hammered in a year or two.

According to the Tuscaloosa News, an internal investigation by Alabama led to the school’s “belief that [Baker] was involved in a meeting with Atlanta-based adviser Rashan Michel and Auburn assistant coach Chuck Person,” for which the three men were compensated for introducing a highly touted recruit and his father to a financial adviser referred to in complaints as “cooperating witness 1.”

In bold was self imposed by Auburn.

Its possible that the NCAA adds additional penalties but that would be surprising.

I am giving facts here you are the one refusing to believe them


You are oblivious again pointing fingers for something y’all got caught doing as well

You had a player sit as well. You had an ad employee take money admit to it and involved in the fbi sting

quote:

Alabama hasn't had any of that.


It’s like you can’t comprehend facts at all when it comes to Alabama.

He got probation, judge concluded he was generous and giving to a fault. I can assure you, nothing else will come of this for AU.

I wouldn't go that far. The NCAA is pretty impossible to predict.

Ours sat for one game you had two players sit a whole year and a coach got arrested. If you cant see there are huge differences in the cases thats just you purposely being blind.

I've not heard of any other school being involved with Persons. I may be wrong but the FBI didn't include the Tuscaloosa Times or a "belief" as evidence.

I mean it has nothing to do with Auburn but it was pretty clear he working with Michel and not just accepting money from him.

It's one of the reasons he was arrested and guys like Baker weren't.

Your compliance department is not on Auburn's level. Few gumps would argue otherwise.

. The projection here is hysterical. This is exactly what you are doing in this thread.

You had no clue of the facts and are inventing “huge differences” yourself. Your brethren are even against you here

Unless there is precedent, I don't see the NCAA doing anything AU hasn't already done for a rouge assistant. There was never an unfair advantage for AU, no reason to punish the school.
