What if cam newton is ineligible

Who doesn't love that in a quarterback? Blackmon appears to be the next big, stud receiver coming out of Oklahoma State, the first being Dez Bryant, who is good in his own right. Blackmon has caught 84 balls for 1, yards and 16 touchdowns. He is another player likely to go high if he elects to go into the NFL Draft. He had a run in with the law for underaged drinking and driving while impaired, but he remains eligible to play. Marcus Lattimore is on pace for over 20 touchdowns and 2, all-purpose yards in just his freshman year.

He will certainly be a Heisman front-runner next year and in as well. He has thrown for 23 touchdowns and 2, yards heading into this weekend. I am not sure if the complete truth will ever be known. Some powerfull people involved IMO.

Posted December 1, Based on the information available to the reinstatement staff at this time, we do not have sufficient evidence that Cam Newton or anyone from Auburn was aware of this activity, which led to his reinstatement.

Under this threshold, the student-athlete has not participated while ineligible. Fortunately for Auburn, Cecil Newton was never going to suit up to play, so all this bloviating about his "unacceptable" conduct is really just a wag of the finger at an inconsequential and convenient villain.

And Cam Newton is free to continue on his path to a Heisman Trophy and possible SEC Championship Game and BCS National Championship Game wins because his father did dirty work — at least, and possibly at most, hunting for pay for his child's services — without his knowledge.

Put aside the leaps of faith it takes to assume that a father who helped his son transfer from Florida to Blinn College — Cecil Newton was the person who told the world his son was transferring from Florida back in , of course — would not keep his son in the loop about a possible pay-for-play scheme and that the son would not have even unintentionally become aware of even a hint of this. Those are the leaps the NCAA requires us to take right now, and we have to treat them as fact to accept that Cam Newton is eligible.

Treating Newton as eligible, though, also leads us to conclude that if a representative of a college athlete discusses selling the athlete's services and gets caught , it still won't affect the athlete's eligibility, as long as the athlete doesn't know.

That doesn't open a can of worms; it sets the stage for a field of snakes much better at gaming the system than Cecil Newton and Kenny Rogers.

Auburn declared Newton ineligible on Tuesday and requested his eligibility be reinstated. The NCAA enforcement committee staff, Newton's father and an owner of a scouting service worked together to actively market Newton as a part of a pay-for-play scenario in return for Newton's commitment to attend college and play football.

NCAA rules do not allow individuals or entities to represent a prospective student-athlete for compensation to a school for an athletic scholarship. Based on the information available to the reinstatement staff at this time, we do not have sufficient evidence that Cam Newton or anyone from Auburn was aware of this activity, which led to his reinstatement. Under this threshold, the student-athlete has not participated while ineligible.

In conjunction with the case, Auburn University has limited the access Newton's father has to the athletics program and Mississippi State has disassociated the involved individual. With a victory, the Tigers will earn a spot in the BCS national title game. Auburn could be fined if Newton off-limits, accuser meets with officials. Copyright WIS.
