No complaints from Cam Newton

By looking at the veterans to choose from, and considering CLausen and Pike are on the roster, Does Cam give us the best chance to win week 1? That is what Rivera and co are deciding. My guess is: Yes, but the risk is high.

Solid evidence or STFU.

Newton's father, Cecil, was accused last week by Rogers, a former Mississippi State player who has worked for a Chicago-based agent, of asking for anywhere from $100,000 to $180,000 for his son to sign a letter of intent with Mississippi State. According to an NCAA spokeswoman, "the solicitation of cash or benefits by a prospective student-athlete or another individual on his or her behalf is not allowed under NCAA rules."

Friday, Mississippi State athletic director Scott Stricklin acknowledged in a statement that the school "was approached with an offer to provide an extra benefit" and that the school refused.

Not that I have anything against Cam, I love the guy. I'm just saying you can't ignore the allegations.

If he knows the playbook, which has been reported, then I would say yes. I don't see how JC would really have any advantage over Cam at this point.

Allegations are not necessarily facts.There is only Roger's word that Newton Sr. asked Rogers to find a booster to donate $180,000 for Cam's signature. Newton Sr. has admitted to being involved in a money discussion but it's only Roger's word that Newton approached him and not the other way around.

And we know Kenny Rogers is a paragon of truth. Uh no! Rogers is a known liar who was being investigated by the NFLPA long before the Newton situation.

http://blogs.clarionledger.com/msu/2010/11/05/rogers-cited-as-recruiter-in-nflpa-case/

"The NFLPA issued a complaint today against an agent tied to Kenny Rogers, who is cited as a “recruiter” responsible in part for violating “numerous” provisions of the organization’s agent regulations."

"Rogers is described by the NFLPA as a “recruiter” for Greengross and is alleged to have misrepresented himself as an NFLPA employee to prospective player-clients in the NFL."

But I just don't understand why people can't move on from this.

"According to the facts of the case agreed upon by Auburn University and the NCAA enforcement staff," the NCAA said, Cecil Newton and Rogers, a former Mississippi State player, "worked together to actively market (Cam Newton) as a part of a pay-for-play scenario" at State.

But again, I don't care. ;)

      Tet wins PFF Rookie of the year

      He is a WR 1. Sean McVey was right to covet him.  Glad he won't be suiting up against us Saturday.

      Sonny Styles

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      OSU runs a base 4-2-5 with Sonny playing in the middle lb and Arvel Reese playing the weak side lb (Columbus Dispatch).  Arvell Reese seems more like the versatile lb who can play edge too.  I think both will be gone by our pick so we would need to look at the UGA and Texas off ball lb's.  If Styles is there at 19 take him as quick as you did Tet; if not, think about trading back to get one of the other guys (UGA or Texas).  I feel like this is a four deep ILB class. I feel like we won't be looking at a quality Edge at 19 either (Texas Tech guy). Trading back so we can address ILB, Edge, and Oline with picks in the first two rounds would be great.  Not really wild about the free agent market for Edge and ILB as the best ones are pretty old.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      also, draft position doesn't mean anything once you make it to the NFL.  Jalen Coker is legit.   Now, he might not of been healthy every game but as of right now.....there is really zero reason this offense is bottom of the league.  We got the OL.  We got the RBs and we got the WRs to be a pretty decent offense.  We just need someone putting the ball where it needs to be.
