I posted this in a few other places this morning and got some interesting responses. Just thought I'd share... I know some will say it's an O&B Glasses response, but is it so really out of the question this theory is false?
I'm sure others might have come up with the same take, but here's where I'm coming from.
Just a thought, and only my opinion, but... What if the opposite of all we think is happening, is actually happening.
In other words, I believe it was AU turning in Rogers and reporting MSU in the process. Everything that's transpired over the last week makes ten times more sense if true. Here's my points...
1. MSU's statment was very rare. Extremely rare. It took a defensive posture with the "delay" paragraph. I believe that delay was actually time given to them to exercise an internal investigation, and that it took them till July to turn in what they'd found on either themselves, and or Rogers.
2. I believe Cecil listened, but let them hang themselves with their own rope. This would explain "a rented mule", and his spurning MSU and making the decision for an unknowing Cam. Despite all the other reasons Cecil explained that AU was a better choice. If Cam DID find out, it would certainly explain an emotional call saying what Cam "allegedly" said.
3. It would explain Bell and Bond's connections. Neither implicate AU. In fact, they almost go out of their way to ensure AU that they have nothing to do with what they're saying. I believe that Bond, still in good standing with the athletic department, is protecting MSU by going after Rogers, who he believes made this offer and is potentially hurting MSU. Bell only knows he was aksed for money and was told it was for Cecil. I don't believe at this time that Bell actually spoke directly to Cecil, regardless of who he thinks the money was for.
4. It would explain why, as the reporting institution in this case, AU has been quiet, yet confident and letting Cam play. I believe it's why the NCAA hasn't forced AU's hand. They were the one's bringing the complaint, not the defendent.
5. I believe that's why Chizik took the route he took on his show last week, so confidently. He knew it was coming at some point, and he was prepared. I just don't think he was prepared for how nasty and one sided ESPN and other outlets have been, and that's when he gave his passioned response the other day.
6. I believe that Cecil Newton has a lawyer, NOT because he's going to sue over any defamation suit, but because he either has evidence on Rogers, or is simply protecting his business interests while his name gets trug through the mud, while he's not able to personally defend himself.
7. "Can't confirm nor deny" is coached by lawyers, in my opinion. Cecil is no lawyer, and I believe he's doing all he can to stay quiet.
8. This would explain the FBI's involvement and why John Bond is so willing to talk to them about Rogers. Why the infighting? Because, Bond knows Rogers is doing this, and he's the exact type thing that the FBI is investigating. Not Auburn. The FBI has already stated they just want to see if kids are being shopped. Right, by rogue agents, and agents that were marked in 15 of 17 implications in an NFLPA complaint.
As far as the cheating thing? I believe that simply broke because som numbskull down at UF in the video department told his big mouthed brother and it got to an all to willing writer at the right time. Nothing more, nothing less. That's a moot issue, but gets brought up because of the other issues at the same time.
That's my opinion. Who knows...
Anyway, about to head down to AU and scream my lungs out in support of AU and Cam Newton! War Eagle and travel safe for all you heading to The Plains!
