WHy would they err on the side of caution? If he's ineligible then the whole season is shot so it won't make a difference if they play him or not now.
No, the difference is - if they continue, now, knowing what they know is true, and have to vacate everything later, I will be 100% for the death penalty, as will many others. They can mitigate their damages by playing it straight from this moment forward.
If they forfeit all games Newton played in, shed everybody who has remotely dirty hands, lose 5 scholarships a year for three years, no post-season for 2 years - I can live with that. If they persist, the death penalty will be the only justice, and I'll add one more - kick them out of the SEC. They will have cost the SEC 10s of millions of dollars, knowingly, intentionally.
Also, Auburn has too many recent infractions to be given any more slack than that.

Agreed. It might give us an opportunity to add TCU.
