PLAN B: PROJECT “CAMDEN” KNOWLEDGE
By Editorial Staff
Oh Betsy! Is this Cam Gate conspiracy getting out of control or what? Now the FBI is investigating Mr. Newton, his Daddy and his church of “What’s Happenin’ Now Is How Much Your Payin’ For My Son!” They have requested an official interview with John Bond, prior Mississippi State Quarterback who originally broke this story. The investigation is to not only determine what has taken place here, but in the bigger picture if this “play for pay” is more widespread. As per the statement from the FBI source, they are “interested in whether young men are being shopped to colleges.” (Source: TMZ.Com)
FBI Investigating Cam Scam

ESPN reported this week that a Mississippi State recruiter said that Cecil Newton, Cam’s father, told him, prior to Cam’s commitment to Auburn, that it would take “more than a scholarship” for his son to attend their university. After Cam committed to Auburn, there was allegedly an emotional call from him to another Mississippi State recruiter when he said his father selected Auburn for him because “the money was too much.” (Source: Fox News.Com)
This is the first time, by implication that Auburn University itself has been brought into the equation, although we all knew it was eventually coming. Is the whole house of cards getting ready to come tumbling down? It obviously is getting more interesting as the days progress. Now with the NCAA and the FBI investigating, if there is any truth to all of this, then forget about “SuperCam,” he will just end up another “Jock Thug” in a long list that we already have. It is Auburn University that would have “screwed the pooch!”
If it turns out that money was funneled to the Newtons either directly or indirectly by the University, Chancellors, Trustees, or inside Alumni, all hell will break loose and Auburn could very well end up like SMU several years ago i.e. loss of football program. Now, a lot of you are saying, c’mon that is such a stretch that you are grasping for something to write about. Oh really? If you think Auburn Football hierarchy isn’t capable of underhanded stuff, then maybe you might have forgotten about the ill-fated plane ride, behind Tommy Tuberville’s back, to try to hire Bobby Petrino a couple of years back, or the back handed way they got rid of him and his predecessor, Terry Bowden, when they had one or two slow seasons following many successful ones.
Understand that I do not wish this on them. I have many Auburn friends that would be devastated if this happened. So as a “shout out” to my buddies, Charlie, Nancy, Melissa, Caroline, Joe, and Dayna, “Please tell me it ain’t so, Auburn!”
And now, let us turn our Dawgy attentions to Plan B. Tomorrow is already upon us, and it appears that Mr. Newton shall be “starting” for the Tigers, War Eagles, Plainsmen, (yes, Auburn suffers from multi dissociative personality with schizophrenic tendencies – they don’t know who the hell they are) as per their coach today, Gene Chizik. Therefore, the Dawgs are going to have to figure out how to beat Auburn with him in the game.
Enter Plan B. It’s simple, Georgia paid Idaho State University over a half million bucks to be Georgia’s floor mat last Saturday, so what’s the big deal if they offer Cam’s daddy the same amount for Cam to take a dive! Of course, the smart thing for Cecil Newton to do would be to bet the whole half million on Georgia, the underdog, to win. Then everyone wins (except Auburn of course). Georgia beats Auburn and secures not having a losing season; Mark Richt saves his job by beating the Number 2 team in the BCS; and the Newtons become multi-millionaires.
Alas, you know what will happen though. The temptation will be too great, and Cecil will use the money to paint his church with 18k gold paint and install diamond studded door handles. The red flare goes up; the whistle gets blown; and everybody’s screwed!
Ok, tomorrow we enter PLAN C: PROJECT “FRANKLY MY DEAR, I DON’T GIVE A CAM!”
