The -- situation the Cecil ruling. Came at a point when the SEC champ. Was in place that we didn't know was every plant and an SEC championship game it's like this all happened after Auburn had clinched. A spot in the national championship game so it's not like. Always we're joined -- just because we want him to play in the national championship game if they had him. They would and you know it's funny the athletic I don't understand what else they -- they said there's evidence. To suggest that Cecil Newton. Had an agreement would Mississippi State. Where he was trying to get some -- But they're only thing is. Cam wasn't aware of it. -- by now that are chill you can have come here you gotta right now if you want him so. If they don't have on in 2002 and I don't think our 2011. I don't think anything is coming in 2014.
The the athletic director for Auburn University said Cecil would not be at the national championship game last night. Not only was -- at the game he was on the field after the game. Because a newspaper photographer from down their got a picture of him hugging his son as you would do if your father and your son just on the national championship. If if the athletic director of opera goes out of his way to say Cecil won't even be at the game. And he's not only on the -- and at the game on the field with your team after the game. Sorry I don't leaving NATO. I don't believe anything. I don't believe anything the NCAA says -- beneath the NCAA. Should be either suspend the five Ohio State players from the ball game.

Maybe. The Ohio State players it was not a national championship game. They lose Ohio State loses of Terrelle Pryor and four others don't play in the game but it's okay. So what they they lose a game that's not Ford championship. I think they would the players would rather be out of that game than be out of five games next year and OK let's say Terrelle Pryor goes -- to -- that he's not -- But I think to go to the pros there are three guys. Where two guys who'll be there next year missing five games I would much rather miss a game after not playing for a month there missing half of the 2011 saves.
