It never ceases to amaze me what schools will do to get players to come play for them. It remains to be seen how much of this Cam Newton clusterpryor is really true, but as of right now it isn't looking good for maybe the nations most exciting player. The whole situation seems a little shady, but it wouldn't be college football without 16 different people playing to their own agenda through a student athlete. Thankfully Penn State, and really the whole Big Ten doesn't have to deal with issues like this as often as the SEC.
