Stanley McClover Claims "Pay for Play"

[Mr. Scot]

dude. he woulda been a first round pick if he came out the next year.

Not to worry. Depending on how things go, Armanti Edwards may be starting a new tradition.

(I hope not, but admittedly it's possible) :(

Funny Auburn is the focus despite the fact that he mentions getting sex from girls and money from schools like Ohio St. and LSU as well... Coincidence? lol

It's also funny that the players who are talking just happen to be out of a job right now. That doesn't mean they're lying, mind you, but I doubt you will hear of too many guys with 10yr NFL careers admitting to this stuff.

Again, I'm still mad that the Panthers paid that guy, because it was a waste of money and a roster spot, even if he was a late round pick.

There is nothing pure about college football. People who choose to believe it is somehow altruistic or unsullied are in denial IMO. It is a big bucks minor league system. Mas nada.

From Rivals.com, the scandal of the day (Fiesta Bowl):

I don't think it happens everywhere.

I do think it happens at a lot more schools than just Auburn.

I'm afraid the annual tradition of saying that has been abolished.

It was replaced briefly by "this is Dwayne Jarrett's breakout year" but now that too has fallen by the wayside.

But without training camp, where will Jason Carter look great at?

Why all the hate? Oh yeah, Nebraska is our bitches :D. Well I mean they were till you guys ran away since you can't win the conference...

Have fun being Texas' bitch for the next century.

Not to disagree but I think that Brown is up first for this honor.

Has no one ever seen the movie 'Blue Chips'? It does happen, and quite often...

[Montsta]

So would you say McClover is 'barking up the wrong tree'?

I would say that the predator has finally caught his prey. He sure as hell didn't hunt down any NFL QB's though.:D

[ElkinPanthersFan]

You mean the same guy that barely played for what we paid him? Nice.

Atleast, his play was more comparable to his pay than Peps.

I'm sure this happens quite a bit.

And if you think that paying players a stipend would end this...it wouldn't. The regulars would get theirs and the good players would get 10X what was legal to compensate for it.

I think some of you are failing to see the big picture (unless this was mentioned earlier--I didn't read every comment)--

If anyone from Auburn has ever taken money, it is Cam Newton. (NCAA investigation and all). However, that doesn't matter in the NFL. What matters? Did he tell the NFL teams the truth when they asked him about it? Remember, they don't have to prove squat to not take him because they think he lied.

If more comes out in the next 27 days or so about Newton taking $$ and he told teams he did not, he better pray the Bengals or the Raiders take him.
