Never hurts to be prudent, son. It's like wearing a condom and having your girlfriend take the pill.

Again, if he was in compliance and did nothing wrong, why disassociate?

Is that an unreasonable question?

If Cam did no wrong, why was Cecil barred from games?

This statement of yours seem eerily similar to thoughts I had several times while reading threads here. hmmmmmmm

Isn't it funny how things work like that?

Because they are two totally different people. Cecil did wrong, cam didn't.

Is that hard to comprehend?

Stay with the thread theme sir or others will RA.
This is not about your big brother Auburn. Remember that before posting.

T-Town Menswear in University Mall has come under scrutiny in recent days when photographs from the shop's facebook page surfaced, depicting UA star running back Trent Richardson signing items in the store. Other UA players, both current and former, were also pictured on the facebook page. The photos have since been removed. If Richardson or any other current players were provided money, suits, or any other benefit deemed improper under NCAA rules in exchange for autographs, their eligibility could be jeopardized.

quote:

"He never tried to approach me during football or tried to do anything like that while I was still eligible," McElroy said. "My only dealings with him were all legal. I organized a signing with him through my marketing people, once I was done and my eligibility was complete. He was fine - he paid the right amount, and we organized a signing to benefit my foundation."

quote:

"I probably have two, maybe three suits in my whole closet. I bought those within my first two years of being at Bama," Davis said. "To my understanding, he's just a very proud fan, maybe he was overzealous with being a fan. I think I may have taken a picture or two with him."

quote:

Asked why some UA players may have frequented the store, McElroy said: "Tom can always see from his store into the mall, he can see people as they walk by because of where his counter is located, so I'm sure he calls out. ... They go in there because they're walking through the mall. You go into shops. You look around. There is nothing corrupt about it."

What's wrong with being prudent? If it looks suspicious, why not just go above and beyond to make sure people like you don't gossip.

I thought I read or heard somewhere that Alabama did not report the incedent to the SEC or NCAA.

If they did, has the SEC commented on it?

Auburn fans are the ones saying it wasn't about Auburn. It's fair to discuss similar accusations as long as they are pertinent to the topic at hand.

I thought that would be obvious. There was a shitstorm taking place or about to take place at OSU regarding autographs. They just saw AJ Green go down for an autograph/jersey related offense the previous season. It was a preemptive action.

But childs28 just posted quotes from McElroy saying everything was on the up and up, nothing to see there.

At Auburn? That's why he was banned. Time for a new thread. Aubies admitting it now.
