I hope this is behind him, but I am not worried. The story did not effect his performance at all while he was in college and I doubt seriously if it will at all if it ever resurfaces again.

Having said this, I much prefer Cecil being the silent type. I saw an interview and he seems like a good guy. Probably is but just got caught doing what 90% of the top guys are doing too.

It really looks like there was at least an attempt to sell Cam to auburn (and I'm positive he knew about it, how do you not?), but at this point, he's a Panther. I don't care too much about it but I wish it hadn't happened. Hopefully the investigation is done and has uncovered the truth and it won't be something that comes up repeatedly.

We already know Cam can play through this kinda stuff though so it won't impact him on the field. I just hope this is the only "off field" incident that Cam is ever "associated" with in any form, and as long as he keeps playing it smart, it may be.

Regardless of what the NCAA finds out or rules, unless you are an Auburn fan, who gives a fug? He's a Panther now, and as long as Cam keeps his act straight while wearing our uniform who cares?

I am an Auburn fan and I don't give a fug.

As long as he ain't saying "Yeah, Auburn gave me $$$$$$ and here's the deposit slip and check copy", honey-badger right here don't give a poo.

I would weigh the laptop thing more than this honestly. I understand pro-football doesn't have internships or co-ops but it's just kind of dumb that they make such a controversy out of it. The only reprehensible thing is that a man of Cecil's age would have such poor judgement. At least Cam was young when the laptop thing happened. I don't see anything morally or ethically wrong.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
