Cam's dad may have been fully aware of the rules and loop-holes the entire time and didn't inform him of what he was doing? We may never know....
I jsut dont buy it. To go from Blinn to Auburn is a big change, you know he talked to his dad about what he was doing. At some point in time the NCAA has to be tough about this kind of stuff or its never going to stop. Who knows how much or exactly what type of evidence the NCAA has to have in order to bring down sanctuations upon a university is anyones guess but everyone Ive talked to feels the same way. If it was UT Id be for them getting their *** handed to them too like USC did. Id settle for Cam getting his hiesman taken away though as I feel it was more a personal problem rather than a problem with the actual university but who knows the true story about the interection between his dad and Auburn.

I find it hard to get into college football anyway, with the stupid BCS system, corruption, and the general lack of sportsmanship.

I agree. And if Auburn went undefeated, got their *** waxed in the NC game and then followed it up next year with a season like ummmmm........Texas had this year.

I'd probably find it hard to get into college football too.

Eh, I didnt expect a whole lot out of Texas this year, damn sure didnt expect them to have a losing record thats for sure but it is what it is. We got rid of our biggest problem(Greg Davis) but we also lost one of our biggest assets(Will Muschamp). How next season is going to go is anyones guess. Ill still watch every game but I dont see Texas doing anything til the 2012 season unfortunately. Shipley and McCoys little bros will be at Texas next year too so theres some hope...

Other than dropping a game to Nebraska, and a game to TexTech, my Tigers made me proud. I haven't been spoiled with constant National Championships and Conference Championships nearly every year lol

Mizzu did well this year.
Between Auburn and Alabama both there is usually one doing pretty well each season. But AU is the red-headed step child of the state so it's nice to see some success from them. They've gone undefeated or 1 loss several times and have been left out of the big game due to the popularity race. I know exactly how TCU and Boise feel.

Maybe if Boise didnt have a blue field people would take them more seriously and TCU's strength of schedule isnt what a lot of the other teams in the BCS is so they will always get left out.
