OT: RE the CHUCK situation

Welcome! I just knew you had some knowledge of the Persons and thought you may want to share whatever you know with the board....
Welcome to The Greg
The first thing I thought of when I heard it was that he didn't come up with this himself. I knew someone had to not only put the idea in his head, but do much more than that.
I really hate he did that. He's good people. Not going to comment on other Persons.
Welcome to the best James Madison Football and Auburn Basketball board on the internet, glad you could join us. Your opinion on this effecting Bruce's employment status?
@cookedw whats the word from around the internet this am?
IF the bruce survives and the team stays together and has a good season, i think he could continue to pull good talent, maybe just not GREAT talent.
Damn I like this guy's fire:

Hopefully BRUCE has similar representation if needed.

Nothing new from what I have seen. I'm curious as to who is and isn't practicing when practice begins on Friday.
The best case scenario from what I can see, is Chuck was lying (or nothing can be proven) when he claimed to have given money to a player and no money was ever provided (he just pocketed the money). Which is completely far fetched considering how much he lied.
CP is some kind of dumb. All this over a fake agent.
The fed's will have all his bank records, so it shouldn't be that hard to see if the money came in and then went back out in a lump sum.
Yeah I cant believe these guys and the Adidas rep. I'm just picturing some dood with a fake mustache undercover as NBA Agents Inc. Like how dumb are you guys.
That's my hope as well that Chuck just said he was giving a cut but never delivered which seems plausible to me. We need everyone to stand behind BRUCE. Make JJ the fall guy if we need one. Win win.
Hearing some rumbles about Malzahn hosting b-ball recruits at his place for a BBQ...fingahs crossed
not really, but an e-persona can hope
From people I've talked with that know Chuck, he's just all around dumb. I can totally see him not even thinking about the possibility that what he was doing might be even the slightest bit illegal. Against NCAA rules? Sure. They pound compliance on those fools like there's no tomorrow at AU. But as for it being a federal crime to do what he was doing? That dumb SOB never had a clue.
Agreed, sounds like he really likes the sound of his own voice, so I could totally seeing the "agent" stroking his ego and getting him lined up for the "easy money." Just sucks that this happens right as we're set to take off.
At least he wasn't paying players to come to AU.
Agreed but how much of that alleged $18k did they get and how much did the kids know about it? If they only got like a few k each and the kids weren't directly receiving should be a decent chance they can play this year.
It's just so crazy the FBI is like here's half a mil go out there and give out bags of cash pretending you're an aspiring agent.
Screw you Chuck Person. Screw you
I hope he gets shanked by a prison bitch with a rusty spork.
I promise it was a TOTAL coincidence that I was in NYC for that game guys.
I'm not a big twitterrer but it's just crazy how many complete losers are on there tweeting at our beloved BRUCE. Really hate social media.
AU offering full refund for season bball tickets. Yikes
the AD is just dumb. why announce that? If people want a refund, give it to them, but you don't ring the dinner bell.
What has the AD ever done to lead you to believe that they wouldn't do something dumb? Genuinely curious. TIA
Incompetent yokels doing incompetent yokel things.
i know, my super power is "stating the obvious"
What happens if the families pay back the 18k or whatever they received? Would it be possible for the players to regain eligibility?
JURICH & PITINO on administrative leave. Hopefully OBBERN will do the same for Jacobs. I don't see any reason to punish BRUCE since this is the first transgression on his watch and it came from a Jacobs hire not a BRUCE hire.
My opinion is yes. I think once you get around $10k for a player it might be dicey. As referenced in the Gurley case he got over $3k and only missed 30% of the season. I'd feel better if less than the $18 was actually distributed.
Gang if this Nike thing blows up that could implicate God knows how many programs. In which case, the NCAA will have an almost impossible time sanctioning anyone. #fingerscrossed.
lulz...please let there be a smoking gun(s) in Tusklooza
Yes. Would be awesome to see something come out about John Petty and Colin Sexton
