"it has nothing to do with me now"

Damn he could have handled that better. Sounds like a admission of guilt almost lol

I'd say he's guilty of the academic cheating. A lack of defense is an admission of guilt in my opinion.

if they go after every football player for academic dishonesty, you might have 5 that could dress out. ****, you might eliminate 80% of a university as a whole.

If they actually pursued every athlete who cheated, nobody could play. Vanderbilt would win the SEC and would be playing Yale in the national championship.<div>

but who cares. This doesn't mean crap as to his eligibility now. The $$$ allegation is the only one that matters now. But it does give you a hint about his character.

I dont think they are "going after him for cheating" I think it is more along the lines to contradict the SI article coming out where Newton says he left Florida because Tebow came back for his senior year, the same thing Cecil has been saying. It catches them in a lie, if indeed he was facing expulsion and left because of it..

The Newton for Heisman/Auburn camp has been building the narrative about Newton all year.

Some points;

1. He just unknowingly purchased a stolen laptop, something that has caused him undue personal embarrassment.
<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Sure, he didn't paint it and put his name on it either. And he certainly didn't throw it out the window when the cops came to his dorm room</span>.
2. He left Florida because he didn't want to back up Tebow.
<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">That was dis-proven by today's Fox Sports story, or at least attempted.</span>
3. Auburn went to Blinn JC to scout out a WR and just happened to stumble across Cam Newton (by far the most unbelievable, who didn't know who Cam Newton was).
<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">This is where the Kenny Rogers and Cecil Newton connection begins.</span> <span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Cecil Newton admits to coordinating the transfer of his son from Florida to Blinn, Cecil and Rogers are seen in Starkville, Cecil introduced Rogers to Mullen. One has to assume he introduced Rogers to Chizik as well.</span>
4. Cam Newton is such an upstanding young man he let his Father chose which school he would attend.
<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">His Father was admittedly taking advice from Rogers, someone with a tainted record. That would put Rogers in a great position if he wanted to seek financial gain, knowingly or not by the Newton's. One of the schools allegedly involved in the bidding process was Tennessee. They are currently under investigation from the previous regime. If they know anything they will be or have been singing like a caged bird. Additional information from more than the John Bond incident that happened last December has come out since July. What is this information, is this the 140k bid?</span>

5. Cam has been a model citizen since he has been at Auburn.
<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Perhaps, but if he hasn't it'll come out.</span>

My guess is that the next few days/weeks will be filled with articles alluding to items 3 and 4. If you are a journalist you will drip this stuff out in pieces. No way you throw it all out there one piece at a time. Just put it out piece by piece fast enough to stay ahead of the competition. This isn't a court of law, it's the media. They're trying to sell ads and push web traffic, they just need enough to keep the story going.

Then every school would be on probation. Yet they nailed msu to the wall for it. If they are there investigating then why not dig it up while they are there.
