Here is a link to a blog that sort of compiles all the allegations against Auburn into one comprehensive thing that was just emailed to me. I'm not claiming that it's gospel, I just thought you all might be interested if you haven't already seen this.

We might as well talk about it...
Breaking news...Auburn will be called a cheater for the rest of the season! According to this, there were some mighty shady dealings going on for one Cameron Newton. Now this only involves MSU right now, but you know the real focus has to be on Auburn. My thoughts:
1. Ugh...Of course some shit like this would come out when AU has the wind at its back and is making national headlines as the number 2 team in the BCS. It doesn't help with the background that Newton already has. I realize the computer thing is way overplayed, but it is still talked about by all those that hate Auburn. My general response up to this point has always been something like "Look the kid left UF, spent a year in the middle of nowhere playing JUCO ball, came to AU, and won the respect of the coaches, players, and fans. He hasn't been any problem since and has been a leader of the team and in the community. Give the kid a break. You're just jealous of AU's success and if that's all you have to say, then I will note your jealousy and smile everytime you bring it up." This just becomes a little more fuel for the Cam haters out there. No one will deny that they had reservations about this kid coming to AU when they first read up on him. I'm hopeful that nothing will come of this, but you can't help but worry given the previous issues he has had.
2. Here is why I'm hopeful: he is still playing. So AU has known about this for quite a while now, yet Cam has been eligible the whole season. I don't think they would take a gamble on the kid and the program by playing him if they were afraid he'd by ruled ineligible. Also, based on the fact that our NCAA compliance office is apparently the most hardass department in the country, surely they wouldn't let this one get by them. Last year we couldn't even get a bball player who was ruled eligible by the NCAA into Auburn because of these guys.
3. What is the deal with the timing of all this? Why was this story broken with AU at 9-0 about to face our two biggest rivals? There is something strange about this whole story, including the timing of its release. I can't help but think it was more than coincidence.
4. Even if nothing comes of all this, it is NEVER good for the NCAA to be snooping around your program. Lets hope nothing else comes up during this investigation.
Fellow Citizens, what are your thoughts???

The following was reported by Jeffrey Lee, the moderator on the Auburn Rivals site:
I've spoken to two very trusted sources on the situation, and both said the following are facts:That sneaky little bastard. I was indifferent about Meyer until this...
* Florida coach Urban Myer, Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen and former Mississippi State quarterback John Bond had a telephone conversation recently to discuss the allegations.
* Meyer had an interest in this story getting out and encouraged Bond to do so.
* Mullen told the two he thought they should move on, let it go, regardless of what was being alleged. Meyer said no, that it needed to get out to the media.
* Kenny Rogers, who is alleged to have sought money, is a desperate individual that was trying to get Cam Newton to go to Mississippi State. Rogers has a checkered past that includes an ongoing investigation by the NFL.
