Auburn Allegedly Paid Players, Changed Grades

[Notre Dame Joe]

I thought the rule was if you fired your coach you get a slap on the wrist bowl ban.

If there is a single sentence that sums up the Auburn football program, and really, much of the SEC, it's this one:

(Dakota Mosley) says he learned he'd failed a sixth test on the same day he was scheduled to meet with NCAA investigators to discuss a probe into potential recruiting violations.

LOL. No words

Where's the SEC chant when you need it...

 

[Foppa]

I'd laugh if it wasn't just Auburn, but if every school in the SEC was involved and were in it together...

Can you imagine the sh*t storm that would occur??

ESPN and Mark May would cover it up...ESPN couldn't survive without its lover.

Don't forget May's partner in crime, the vanilla assassin, Kirk Herbstreit

This just keeps getting better and better. If their punishment isn't almost as bad as Penn State's, then it's a load of crap. It's essentially the same situation of institutional cover-up. The only difference is that Auburn covered up drug use and paid its players, but PSU covered up a molester.

Conveniently, the daily ESPN talking heads dont seem to think there's anything there.

At least not while they are cashing checks from The Mother Ship.

 

[QMany]

Convenient that NOW there is going to be an ESPN feature on this.

And the centerpiece of the story has plead guilty to first degree armed robbery. Selena Roberts is a hack. There is a reason she went from cover stories on SI to a local paper in Alabama.

He pled guilty in order to get a lesser sentence, 3 years. If their is corruption in that city, would you want to try the case and risk 21 years?

 

[strigori]

If our options are a wide spread conspiracy to 'save face' or a dumb kid being involved in a crime where the other people involved have plead as well, which do you think is more likely? Keep in mind the guy admits to being at the location of the crime, that alone gets some culpability.

Saw this video for the first time lol

Auburn University Internal Auditing found that "there is no evidence academic fraud occurred."

Even our own Michael Rose thinks that's funny:

Lol I love internal investigations.... Like they come out and say, "yep we did it" they cracks me up

 

[beanman]

Instead of investigating, they probably just made sure it was covered up well enough that they'd never get caught.

This is true.
