    I remember this game when it happened, we were talking about it after the game, guy got in game and just committed numerous turnovers and committed an insane amount of fouls in a couple minutes, Auburn still covered so he screwed up big time for whoever he was shaving for.

    He either really sucks or is guilty. The Feds usually bungle these things though.

    There's a lot more fixing in college than people know. These kids come from poor neighborhoods & most of them have no nba future. Of course they'll throw games for some cash on the side...

    What are you talking about?

    The main game that is at question is Auburn at home vs. Alabama.... they were 5 point dogs and lost by 18. Ward played 17 minutes and had 3 points, 6 turnovers and they DIDNT cover.

    In the other game that he allegdly did it... was when they covered vs. Arkansas. He came in...made a horrible turnover, and then hurt his knee and had to come out... didn't play more then 30 seconds.

    So you obviously can't read... and you don't have a clue.

    Someone at the college notified the coaches... who notified the NCAA... who notified the FBI.

    Point shaving happens in probably 60% of all college games, this guys was a stiff anyway so Auburn getting reported in basketball and this guy at the center of it is ho hum. Having some scrub in your pocket isnt sure money either. Looks to me like they were 50/50 and thus lost considering they only won half of the games he was supposedly trying to fix.

    Just a toothless story from a bad basketball department. If they really want something try and find out if the Auburn FOOTBALL team shaved points THAT would be a story.

    Like I say I imagine theres a guy or guys on a lot of teams every night not trying their hardest or outright playing bad. Nothing to see here.

    Why would he fake an injury......Him playing badly on purpose is a sure thing to hurt the team whereas his replacement may or may not light it up

    Where there's smoke there is usually fire.... This kid could be in deep trouble and have his life turned upside down. Be good to follow this story as it develops.
