florida fans throw money at Auburn players, chant 'F-B-I'

A word of warning, Auburn fans: Even if the Tigers do the expected and win the SEC regular-season title, you’re not going to stop hearing about the program’s alleged involvement in the FBI scandal rocking college basketball anytime soon.

Don’t believe that? Well, the fans at the University of Florida had a nice reminder for the Tigers as they left the floor following a 72-66 loss to the Gators. As Auburn headed back to the locker room, Gator fans serenaded them with chants of ‘F-B-I’ while throwing dollar bills down at the players:

Though the latest reports from Yahoo! Sports have shown that the pay-for-play scandal affects several major programs, Auburn was one of the first to be implicated.

Back in September 2017, Auburn assistant Chuck Person was arrested on charges of conspiracy and fraud, as he is alleged to have accepted bribes to ensure that two Auburn players would eventually sign with a specific agent. Those two players — later revealed to be projected starters Danjel Purifoy and Austin Wiley — have not played for Auburn this season as a result of the investigation.

Auburn’s involvement in the scandal is particularly interesting as it applies to head coach Bruce Pearl. There is an argument to be made that Pearl deserves to be both a) SEC Coach of the Year and fired after the season. This is not Pearl’s first major run-in with the NCAA, as he was given a show-cause for lying to the NCAA about an impermissible visit by a recruit while the head coach at the University of Tennessee.

All that is to say is this story isn’t going away anytime soon. And while the Tigers look positioned to close out their first SEC title in two decades, their reign at the top of the SEC could be short-lived.

I think @aujeff11 is allowed to be critical of the article despite who posted it.

Can we not just laugh at the funny and leave it at that? I’m tired of the needless negative slants like this one:

What happened last night with the creative student section was humorous because of the new wave of FBI implications and Auburn’s link to it in tbe earlier investigation, but the author used the student section humor as his platform to portray Bruce as a corrupt coach that could soon be served a pink slip due to the FBI presence in the CBB world. There is no reasonable argument to be made that Bruce should be fired at the end of the season until the status quo changes- and the status quo, as far as I know, is that the violations involving Auburn were isolated to Coach Person. Any writer or pundit that says otherwise just wants to see themselves in tbe headlines.

It's college and college kids.....a step beyond "dirty mop" cries from the AU fans....but nothing to get upset about...JMO...

[BJCrawford 1,568]

Oh I’m not upset about them chanting it. I just don’t know if I would want it done from our students til all has been revealed.

You know I’m not attacking your posting of articles right? I was talking about the writer and the article, not you.

You seem very:

I have no problems with you bringing articles to this site. I was speaking to the content within the article. Here is a gold medal for your efforts: ?

Crap article

I was going to use a different word, but "crap" is the same thing. Any article writer who A.) Equates the CP thing with pay to play; B.) Claims the CP issue equates to BP having "another major run-in with the NCAA," and C.) Insinuates it's as logically likely AU wins the reg. season championship as it is AU fires BP at season's end is an ignorant horse's ass who writes and publishes pure drivel.

Your original comment meaning was clear to me as well. I share your opinion as others do. @aubiefifty has been criticized for posting articles so I see why he could think something else. People can opt not to read those articles and just let it go if they wish since they most likely know where he gets them. 

[aubaseball 2,590]

Concerning the article if I’m not mistaken, CBPs run in with the NCAA was because he was not truthful about a recruit visiting and having dinner at his house.  Stop the presses, but that sounds like quite the infraction. Not!!!  That’s about as lame as it gets.   With all the other stuff that teams are doing, he gets a show cause because the NCAA got butt hurt because he lied.
