MATTLUVSAUBURN 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 @ CharlesRobinson: SOURCES: FBI probing guard Varez Ward and potential point-shaving in Auburn basketball. Is this why we blow big leads in the second half? I got that tweet a few minutes ago. Anybody heard anything? If he is guilty, thats probably the reason he is gone from the team.

ArmchairAthlete7 21 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 That's just disgusting. Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigers930410 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I just read the article from Robinson. It's hard to believe, but at least it looks like the school was proactive as soon as they found out. They contacted the FBI and the NCAA immediately and suspended him from the team. I just hate we have more bad press when everything began to quiet down a little. Poor guys on the team busting theirs and this guy purposefully giving it away to lose, pitiful.

Stripe 5 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Wow, kid just ruined his life reguardless of the outcome of the investigation. No team is going to want to touch him. Wonder what he was supposedly(At least until found guilty) getting for shaving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANSBY 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I don't see how this is bad press for AU. Sounds more like bad press for one selfish guy who sold out his teammates and his school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTUmike 79 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I've been saying it seems like we were intentionally trying to lose games all season--but I didn't mean like this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigers930410 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I was just refering to Auburn's name being attached to it. You know how people are these days, they will see the headline and not read the article and assume the worst possible. Kind of like with Cam. I for one am proud of the school for not waiting and contacting the FBI and the NCAA when they became aware and then suspending the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUMed 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Finebaum and a guest were just talking about how this is a huge deal for Auburn... brought up Cam Newton a lot and used a train of thought that I couldn't follow. And so it begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexava 6,973 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 this really does suck. but i would really like to know how denson got back on the team if he was involved at any level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANSBY 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Wait a second....Paul Finebaum is taking to the airwaves and saying negative things about Auburn while spinning this Varez Ward stuff to somehow implicate wrongdoings involving Cam Newton and Auburn University....get right out of town.

Weegle777 78 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The rest of the players should take him behind the gym and beat the crap out of him for hamstringing their season like that. Sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msg6367 1 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I can't believe this news breaks on the same day that we make a run at the SEC Championship.... Denson is one of my favorites so I hope he's not involved. From the article, it looks like once the situation was brought to the Coaches attention everything was handled properly.

autodd03 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Fill me in on what auburn did wrong and then I will panic. In the mean time, I am very happy that Barbee appeared to handle this the right way. BTW, if true, I hope VW's spends some time in jail and would love to read an article where the team sent him to the hospital after confronting him. All the guys busting their tails everyday should have the right to punch him in the face once for every point shaved. There is no room for cheaters and I have no use for cheaters in this world. Sorry if you think this is too harsh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
