Oops. Shake it off Jay B and keep fighting to take down the NCAA.
Glad I caught the date of that tweet bc I was confused for a second.
I think I may have misread. I originally thought it was saying Sexton took at least $10K. But Im not sure it is actually saying that now
I certainly hope Emmert is under investigation by the feds. His lack of oversight, and possible exertion of influence to protect schools and keep these issues hidden has got to be considered a criminal conspiracy. The amount of money at play, within the NCAA, by the ESPNs of the world, by the bookmakers, etc. has been influenced by his tainted behavior.
Sexton may never play another down for the Tide.
Also, I think it appears the way we handled the two assistants before the season was done appropriately. May have ended up protecting us.
So good job by compliance and Rich McGlynn?
One could probably say that. Definitely seems they were trying to protect Bruce as best they could, even when he didn’t want to talk. And now he’s almost made himself unfireable. Win win in my eyes
Saw somewhere (maybe the Kentucky board) that some of these meetings and payments were listed under the player they were targeting, but the money and/or meeting didn’t go to or happen with that player or his family but rather someone close to that player, ie Sexton’s “trainer.” So either it’s an elaborate plan to keep the players and families out of it for plausible deniability or the agents were targeting people close to these players in hopes of swaying them to sign. I think both are legit possibilities.
Absolutely, in this instance. However, if they ever pushed for BRUCE to be fired then they deserve eternal purgatory.
You really have to ask this question? Seems pretty obvious to me. Yes, it was a good job. I can't believe you can't see it.
Emmert had better tread VERY carefully and humbly throughout this “investigation”, considering the massive dirt that exists out there on him.
I’d imagine Saban has already given him a call in the past couple of days and told him to shut the hell up with threatening these athletic programs.
I hate Rich McGlynn with the fire of 1,000 suns but he has done two things well his entire career at Auburn.
Cam Newton and Bruce Pearl. Ironically, I guess that means I also love him dearly.
Such confusing feels.

He has the face of a guy that says "I don't want to throw anyone under the bus" a lot.
I've said he did the right thing the whole time, for clarity.
Then why did you ask?
I always thought it was laughable how Auburn fans blamed McGlynn when Purifoy was ruled ineligible his first year here. I think it's ignorance. Fans read bullshit on message boards and take it as the gospel.
I’m still not convinced the assistant coach thing was necessary but if Bruce signs a long term extension and is on the sidelines at Boog U for years to come praise be to Rich.
Oh ok! Well that will teach you, cookie. Don't believe everything you read on a message board, then you won't have to ask ridiculous questions.

You have confused the crap out of me. I didn't believe it. You and I were on the same page the whole time.
The question was a sarcastic one being asked to those who blamed him for the whole thing
Lolololol and Austin still sits
These teams would be insane to sit guys now that have played all year. If there is damage, it’s already been done.
I am good with that decision.
FYI if you see angst from us it’s not bc others “got away with it” or whatever. It would just be a huge bummer for us to have sit the best player to come through AU in a very long time only to find out he didn’t have to.
This scenario has the potential to be the most AU thing in a long line of AU things...

Just saw this. Sorry, been super busy at work lately. I'll let them know, but won't matter.
But, seems to me, after waiting just a couple of days to see how this is shaking out - lot of misinformation out there. I want to know who's releasing info? Probably a defense attorney for one of the original folks arrested? Any way - my first thought was that Anton was paid, but now not so sure. I don't believe Knox was paid anything, and I don't believe Bam accepted money himself (or his fam). Maybe someone charged with pushing him to NC State?
As for Pearl - bad look in my eyes, losing an assistant already. I like Bruce, hell of a coach. But I'm not ready to say one way or another on him? Hope no offense taken.
It’s all cool, bluebruh. We’re not really in a position to talk smack anymore. Looks like we’re going to half limp this one across the finish line and hope we can get healthy before the SEC tourney.
