bugaloo,


I would totally agree but the real issue here is not the student athlete with talent, but the entire NCAA system from top to bottom that's knowingly corrupt and in the case of Cam Newton, the entire college athletic program all across the nation is corrupt because all these university/college presidents, athletic directors and all coaches, not matter the level of Division college play, know that that big money flows like red blood throughout their system that sets these young, mostly inner city, naive struggling kids up for failure in regards to all thr monies and perks that they receive under the table and a majority of these dollars comes from known university/college alumini and boosters who contribute major money to their institutions and in addition, assist in getting those hightly recruited college players in all sports to sign that full ride scholarship and play for that university or college and if the player has the potential and skill of Cam newton, then he gets the shaft when that money suddendly shows up and is offered to him while those Presidents, athletic directors and coaches turn a blind eye and blame the athlete while that young man or woman gets set up for a hard fall but the institution gets their multi- millions in TV contracts revenue, concessions, ticket sales and bowl games and NCAA tournment appearances on the sweat of that athlete.


This has been going on since the inception of college sports and with all the NCAA violations that has occured to virtually every First Team, All American athlete who abilities has won championship year in and year out with a pro career on the horizon, they why hasn't anything been done to throughly investigate and identify these infractions against these students.


They know that the money is out there for the taking and after the multitudes of infractions over the past 30 years, the blame is still placed squarely on the student athlete and no one else and if you consider the case of New Orleans Saints Reggie Bush who won the Heisman Trophy at USC but had it stripped from him this years for NCAA infractions while playing at USC does not convince me that it was totally all his fault and no one else knew absoluty nothing when his coach was not fined or accused but ended up leaving USC scot free and got a head coach job in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks.


Just how does this situation keep happening year after years all across university campuses and only those student athletes are the only ones guilty? They have a serious "problem" but refuses to do anything to fix it because "fixing it" will not get you that highly prized high school recruit or keep him at your school....and if you don't have him, then those schools make no money.
