Good to see that there is at least some activity with the investigation. Barners are convinced that the situation is over with

Of course they think it's over. They are ALL idiots. They are trying to rally behind their sack of garbage, I mean QB.

NCAA concluded Monday a violation had occurred. Auburn briefly ruled him ineligible. NCAA reinstated him today.

So, there was a violation but they have no evidence that Cam Newton knew that his dad was soliciting money from MSU for pay for play. Two things strike me. First, now that a violation has been found if an evidentiary link is made in the future the hammer will fall. Second, every elite recruit in America will now have an arm's length relative or street agent shaking down NCAA institutions. So long as there is no smoking gun, anything goes in the world of the SEC and the NCAA. Wonder where all this benficence was last year when UTK was on the precipice of oblivion over a handful of minor violations and a buch of unproven allegations about what Kiffin might have done?

I don't think he's really "cleared".

I just think the NCAA is letting him play right now. The investigation is still going.

EDIT: And by this, I mean the hammer could still possibly fall on Auburn.

Cleared to play maybe, but that's about it.

The way that this went down it's fairly obvious that AU had a deal with the NCAA. The Tigers never would've declared him ineligible if they thought that he wouldn't be able to play on Sat.

NCAA says neither Cam nor Auburn knew about said scheme.

All this means is that Auburn did not know about the MSU 'shakedown'. Not that Auburn was not involved in its own pay-for-play activity.

My thoughts exactly. I still feel that Auburn may get hammered in the end.

Exactly. There has to be more to this.

How can AJ Green get a 4 game suspension for basically doing nothing and this piece of crap gets cleared??
