I know that FSU claims that they don't believe that jameis received any money for his 2000 autographs, but doesn't the NCAA investigate at all anymore?

Florida State, Jimbo Fisher, and Jameis Winston are following the Auburn "All In" model. Deny everything, stall, delay, threaten legal proceedings claiming lack of "due process", etc.. Even if the NCAA does come calling, the season will be over and Jameis will be headed to the NFL.

I really think that the NCAA is struggling with this because next year is supposed to be when the "Big 5" get more autonomy which could include "stipends" for players. I think the dealers pushed this out to "test" the waters.

Yup..If they allow Jameis to ge away with this, I hate to say this, if I were a college football player whose name holds value & I see the NCAA is allowing Jameis to do it with no repercussions..I'd start signing as many things as fast as my hand could go & make me some $$$ as well..Be like Jameis if that's what the NCAA is going to allow him to do & then lawyer up if they say one word to me about it & point at Jameis telling the NCAA..Hey you butt heads allowed Jameis to sign stuff..If he can..So am I cause it's only fair..

It seems like the NCAA opened the flood gates when they allowed Johnny Football to laugh his way through a half game suspension for autographing things for money.

Here's the latest on this story. Link

The autograph authentication company that has certified more than 1,000 jerseys, photos, mini helmets and other items as bearing the valid signature of Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston received the items only after an initial authentication firm rejected the job because of concerns about their legitimacy, sources told "Outside the Lines."

Five sources who spoke to "Outside the Lines" on the condition of anonymity said that James Spence Authentication got the items only after competitor PSA/DNA backed out of the February signing with Winston. PSA/DNA did so after being told that it couldn't witness the quarterback signing the items in person, sources said.

Wouldn't it be an odd twist if Winston had cheated the folks buying the signatures to resell by having someone else actually sign them.

Really not much would surprise me with Mr. Winston at this point. He's just another highly talented individual that will make a mockery of our justice system and our country's moral code as he lines his pockets. In his defense, everyone else around him is getting richer from his football play, so there's almost no way/reason to correct his behavior. Until this country starts turning off the TV when characters like him are on, we will get more and more just like him.

Where I come from, if you don't want somebody watching you do something, you shouldn't be doing it.

That is true, but the authentication companies take not being able to witness the signing as a lie. The person claiming to represent Winston could easily do the signing and get money for it, and Winston has no idea someone signed his name on hundreds of items.

Which is exactly the tactic the lawyer will use. And Jimbo will say, "Where is the proof? Jamis is innocent once again."

Which is why the signatures were not witnessed. Unless there is a cashed check in Winston's name, he is going to skate here. Even the signatures are in doubt now - they may not all be his.
