It wasn't person's scheme. He was approached by someone acting as an FBI informant. They have the conversations recorded and listed a timeline in a publicly available court document. You don't have to create imaginary scenarios here. The scheme is fully documented.
It wasn't Persons scheme, but he was damn sure selling it wasn't he? My question is was he selling it get those guys to sign at AU or were they already inked and then he approached the parents about it?

You are grasping at straws. You fired an Admin. for the exact same thing.

They were already inked. That is why I mentioned the timeline. It doesn't work out to implicate him using this scheme to bring players in to AU.

That doesn't mean he wasn't using some other illicit means in recruiting, but nothing so far has indicated it.

Does anyone want to go down this road? Seriously man, who the hell wants to see their program get drug through the shite storm of a damn NCAA investigation?

It deeply saddens me that Arkansas is not on this list. No wonder Jeff Long had to go! We expect better from our ADs then to be above cheating. If this keeps up we could be voted out of the conference.

LSU paid for Tim Quarterman. That’s how bad of a coach Johnny Jones was.

Baldwin's parents are both in law enforcement. This was either a lunch or dinner.

This will bleed over to football, the basketball coaches fired because of this will make sure of it. The NCAA will change because of it and look for the cost to the fans to increase. Someone will have to pay the players, and it will not come out of TV money.

If the NCAA would do their job, fairly and impartially, I would agree with you as well.

NCAA doesn't have third party subpoena power like the FBI does, so saying the FBI should not get involved in this is a bit ridiculous. It's the FBI's job to investigate violations of federal law and they claim these schemes violate federal law - what am I missing? Also (and this is a REALLY big also), the NCAA can't put people in prison like the FBI can.

I know that Auburn has their own FBI troubles still ongoing, apparently, but I didn't see them listed anywhere in this report. You know what? I fully expect them to skate. Nothing will be found. They've been down this road before and they came up clean then. Why not now?

Auburn, a tip of the cap to you. Y'all motherfrickers absolutely cheat the right way. You were smart enough to get in bed with people in the casino industry, and if anyone knows how to hide illicit financial transactions so that they can never, ever be found, it is they. We should all take a lesson from you. It may be an amateur sport, but your cheating is professional-level.

I don't even mean this as a troll. It's damn impressive.


Scott Moore, is that you? We're still waiting on those Cecil Newton audio tapes.
