Auburn Erecting a Cam Newton Statue

[Lumps]

the fug cares

has nothing to do with panthers and as much as cam has already been though I doubt it will affect him. 5 years from now when he'll have 3 pro rings, better than any stupid statue.

I'm sure people here do care. Out quarterback has a statue - a statue sculpted in his form after arguably the best year ever by a single player in NCAA history.

The thing is, Cam doesn't have a ring - yet - but he has a statue ffs.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

I'd love to see Cam erected

Auburn announced its plan to erect statues of its 3 Heisman Trophy winners, to include Cam Newton. When asked if erecting a statue of cam Newton was a little premature, the Auburn spokesman responded with the following:

Anyone who knows anything about journalism or politics KNOWS 'words matter'. The words you choose always have a purpose. Jacobs did not say 'Auburn did nothing wrong, Auburn did not pay Cam Newton or his father, or Cam Newton's father was never paid by anyone for Cam to play at Auburn'. He said 'there was no evidence'!

Cam Newton is now a Panther. I think he is an awesome athlete, and can potentially be the best Panther QB we have ever had. As long as he wears the uniform and his name is on the roster I will continue to pull for him because the Panther's success depends on his success. There is no way, however, that anyone will be able to convince me that Auburn did not pay Cam Newton's daddy for cam to play at Auburn or that Cam Newton never knew what his daddy was up to or did not end up with some of that money.

1st of all, NCAA violations in college football are not a matter of who is doing it but rather who does and who does not get caught.

- Look at Ohio State. Jim Tressel writes his book 'The Winners' Manual', and now it is being reported that as many as 50 (FIFTY) players and their families are being investigated for receiving cash, goods, and/or benefits while the players are/were playing for Ohio State!

2nd, there have already been ex-Auburn players who have said Auburn pays its players:

3rd, you can't tell me Papa Newton shopped his son to several different schools EXCEPT for the one he ended up playing for?! :roll:

As I said, the guy is a Carolina Panther now, and I can get behind him and pull for him to be a great player and QB for Carolina...

....just don't ask me to hold my nose, close my eyes, and 'swallow' the bad tasting story that the guy is completely 'clean'.

The end of the Lockout, however, and ths start of the NFL season will mark the end of one era and the beginning of another for Cam Newton. In his new era of playing football for the carolina Panthers, I hope he brings as much success to carolina as he did to the 2010 NCAA College Football chamion Auburn Tigers.

Awesome stuff.

Helluva job of investigative reporting, sir.

you guys realize this is a megabump from last year right? Someone just updated when they were gonna unveil the statues.

[Keith Moons Liver]

I can't respect a player who DOESN'T receive money under the table. What sort of self-loathing mouth breather would play for pennies when their school and the NCAA system exploits them for millions?

[Razzy]

Plenty of Auburn girls have already erected Cam.

There is a place on Hwy17 in North Myrtle Beach where Martin's Golf used to be... you could get these or a pirate... or a suit of armor.

I wonder if they'll consult with Texas about where to find high quality statues

and if you wanna revisit the shaggybevo thread about those statues here you go

It looks like a lazy chorus line
