....so Cam Newton's father shops his kid around to the 'highest bidder' for his 'talents'........he wants from $100,000 - $180,000 for his son's 'services'...a direct violation......the NCAA confirms that Cecil Newton (Cam's Father) is in violation of NCAA rules, yet does NOTHING. Auburn suspends Cam Newton, and the NCAA reinstates him......stating that Cam Newton knew nothing about his father's dealings.........only in the corrupt SEC, i guess.....will this be tolerated.....what a bunch of bull, (but that's another thread)....
