Why does Auburn have its own hoops thread on our basketball page?

RJ, good post. Mark Bradley has been one of the AJC’s top columnists for 30 years. Writes about everything. This time he happened to choose the depressing state of college basketball.

Just thought I'd drop this here. The beat reporter for Auburn at the AJC. This is the view of Auburn from anyone who is not an Auburn homer. Not my opinion, an Auburn beat reporters Op-Ed.

Yep, I think that article sums it up. It is not just the view of Auburn, though. That is the view of all of college basketball.

He was just granted an extension by Auburn, which – not for the first time in school history – finds itself at the center of a storm over recruiting methods and player eligibility.

"suggesting" "and another calling for"

I guess the defense will be that he was investigated/punished and reinstated. I suppose we learned from the Cam Newton thing that you have to prove the money changed hands.

Still doesn't sound good, but at this point I'm marveling at the lack of repercussions from all of this. At first it sounded like a lot of people would have to lose their jobs and some teams would be bombed back to the stone age. That hasn't been the case... yet.

We might have to vacate the wins, but I think they'd have to prove that someone at Bama knew about this or was involved to punish us further.
