Dude, use your head for once and think about it. Yes the FBI isn't going to leak information but when have you seen them investigate something like this before? They didn't jump into this based on rumors or accusations or certainly not because the NCAA asked them to. They had to have stumbled across something that would really get their attention. Something that was credible that could easily lead to a prosecution. Once they get started, the FBI is not going to sit on information like the NCAA. They don't care if they wreck the whole sport, they will find all the wrongdoers and go after them like hells bells.

Now think about Auburn. This is the program we saw on 60 minutes less than 20 years ago. For paying lots of players. Under the watch of Pat Dye. Paid with money rounded up by Bobby Lowder. If Terry Bowden is to be believed, this practice kept right on going after the NCAA sanctions. Auburn is a program who went from 25th to 1st in recruiting rankings in 1 year. This coming after a 7-5 season when their in-state rival won the national championship. All of the top recruits in that number 1 class had a last minute change of heart and all but Cam spurned they home state team. How could they pull that off?

Now how big of a coincidence is it that Milton McGregor was just indicted? He is one of Auburn's inner circle, a board of trustees member, $1MM + contributor, and close friend of the ringleaders (Lowder & Dye). He was even the second largest shareholder at Colonial. How big of a coincidence is it that he was indicted based on wiretaps that ran right through recruiting season? IF AU was paying players, what are the chances that uncle Milton was not only uninvolved, but didn't communicate about it to anyone?

The rumors may be exaggerated, but the FBI brings a monstrous smoke cloud when it comes to town. The plains are indeed a 'burnin.
