[Husker] Would you want Oregon's offense?

Tue Jan 11 19:37:16 CST 2011

Yes, I don't know that they are still involved. They came in early when
Cam's father was denying the allegations. They were investigating extortion
and the "agent" that was representing Cam. Also the agent was under
investigation my the Mississippi law enforcement because they have laws down
here regarding paying athletes.

I think these things were dropped when the Cam's father admitted the
contact. Then the NCAA swept it under the rug...for now. They could not find
any money that changed hands, or that Auburn had any knowledge of the things
that transpired in Mississippi.

They reinstated Cam for the SEC Champ and NCAA Champ, but stated the
situation was still under investigation and reserved the right to bring
further sanctions against him and Auburn if anything came to light.

The interesting thing is that Cecil Newton's Church received a large
"donation" to refurbish his church around this time. Auburn has a booster
(Bobby Lowder). He is on the Auburn Board and has been involved in several
escapades (Including the dismissal of Tommy Tubberville and Terry Bowden)
