Cecil asked for money. Mullen knew that Cam wanted to come to State and what if Cecil didn't have any takers? We would have certainly gotten him if that were the case. What if Cecil decided to start thinking like a true "reverend" at the last minute and decided not to sell his son to auburn? I doubt there is another school out there that would have quit recruiting Newton had they been in the same situation we were in.

the Finebaums and the Aubies won't think it makes sense at all.

because we all knew at the time he was the No. 1 recruit on our board and given that I've confirmed that its not an NCAA violation to recruit a player who has solicited extra benefits from you then we did just what we should have done given the situation.

after he signed with Aubu...I mean we collected all the evidence. So once he signed with Auburn - those pieces of **** cheated.
