Cam Newton’s Heisman is a victory for fact over suspicions

Cam Newton won the Heisman by a wide margin but he was left off the ballot by 105 voters.

(Updated: 9 p.m. Saturday)

The problem isn’t just that some turned Cam Newton’s Heisman run into a morality play. The problem is how we’re judging morality.

His father tried to pimp him to Mississippi State for cash. So is this was supposed to be a vote for Cecil “Huggy Bear” Newton? Is a Heisman vote suddenly not for the student-athlete but for his father, mother and maybe third cousin? Because if that’s true, clear the trophy case. Start with last year’s winner, Mark Ingram, whose father has been in jail for most of the last 10 years for money laundering and bank fraud.

Cam Newton purchased a stolen laptop when he was at Florida, then panicked and threw it out the window when he heard police footsteps. Big mistake, for which he paid a price (public humiliation).

There have been stories of him being on academic probation at Florida. Sorry, but does this put him in some exclusive company in major college athletics that I’m not aware of?

As someone who makes his living in the world of opinion, it nonetheless astounds me how opinion so often trumps fact today.

Cam Newton won the Heisman Trophy Saturday night. Maybe you don’t like it but it was the only choice that made sense.

Newton’s 2,263 points were far head of the next closest competitor, Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck (1079).  But 105 voters out of the 886 returned ballots left Newton off their ballots. For the holier-than-thou voters who want to point to the word “integrity” in the Heisman’s mission statement and yell, “Aha!” — fine. The laptop incident and academic issues at Florida two years ago at the age of 19 prove that Newton is flawed. Welcome to a very large club.

Question: Do Heisman voters hold every candidate to that standard every year, or is this just a new policy of theirs?

But to those who chose not to vote for Newton for the Heisman based on what they think he knew or they think he did or they think he took during recruiting, I would suggest they try peddling that in a courtroom and see where it gets you.

“They’ve done their investigation and the NCAA says he’s in the clear right now,” Warrick Dunn said Friday. “If they say he’s eligible, he’s eligible. People need to just let it go. He deserves whatever he gets.”

Dunn, the former Falcons running back, didn’t win the Heisman when he was at Florida State (he finished fifth in 1996). But he’s in New York with Newton this weekend to accept the Heisman Humanitarian Award for his long-standing.

“Home for the Holidays” program and the work of his foundation.

Few athletes in history have commanded as much respect on and off the field. So his opinion carries some weight.

When asked about Newton as an Auburn quarterback, Dunn said: “He’s resilient. Mentally tough. To be able to focus and stay on course during all of this says something about his character. He’s been able to separate the nonsense off the field with what he has to do on the field. It shows he’s strong mentally.”

As for Newton’s Heisman candidacy, Dunn was bothered that it was even a question.

“They’re just not giving him his due,” he said. “You’re innocent until proven guilty. Most of this is about public opinion, not facts. People want the perfect student-athlete. There are no perfect student-athletes. When I went to college, most of us didn’t even know if we were breaking rules. What if somebody talked to us or gave us a ride or bought us a meal? We didn’t know. I think a lot of what’s happening to Cam Newton just goes back to the Reggie Bush thing [when he had the trophy taken away for NCAA violations].”

Newton overcame his early problems. He plays with pure joy. He lifted a college program like few ever have. He’s one bowl game away from completing arguably the greatest season ever by a college player. He has endured the darkest of clouds hanging over his head, beating Georgia just after the scandal broke, Alabama on the road after it mushroomed and then South Carolina in the SEC title game.

If evidence should come out that Newton knew something or took something, the argument changes. Take away the award. A lack of integrity will be confirmed.

It’s not an ideal situation, but it’s better than the alternative of disqualifying somebody on a hunch. We don’t convict people when we think they might be thinking of robbing a bank. That’s not enforcing morality. It’s a presumption of guilt.

@FALCONS SORRY-
Is that even a real language??? You must have gone to school in Clayton county.

@Jeff-
I can see your point if Cam had just one issue, but he is showing a pattern of moral turpitude. What does it say to the aspiring athletes in high school and younger if he is awarded the Heisman? That it’s okay to commit questionable acts, perhaps even break the rules, so long as you are an elite athlete?

Shame on you and anyone else who feels that he should win this award. Yes, its okay to make mistakes, and its okay to turn your life around. But should you still get to be able to perform on this grand stage? NO! It’s just like Michael Vick. I’m very happy he’s turn his life around, but no way should he have ever been allowed to play professional football again. Our morality as a country is just plain sickening. We are sending the message that premiere athletes are above the rules and the law.

Jeff: Integrity is in the Heisman criteria. How was Cam even eligible with all of his background. Felon, academic cheating and 12 violation for traffic. Auburn, Florida and this column has no credibility.

How do 11 Dawgs get arrested, one for trying to murder his girlfriend. Dawgs have no credibility.
Last time we checked, a $100 purchase is not a felon. He didn’t steal a laptop. He bought a stolen one for $100. And traffic violations? Is that all you got? Did you know you can get a traffic violation for doing a rolling stop at a stop sign? Or a rolling stop, right turn on a red light? Weak, dude. Weak. Cheating? That’s complete rumor and inuendo, otherwise Cam would not have been able to transfer his credits to Blynn or Auburn. As usual, puppies are “digging” holes in their own lies.

Cam has EARNED the Heisman Trophy with his performance on the field and the respect of many others for his classy behavior during all of this off the field turmoil.

He has also made mistakes and paid for them but they have nothing to do with his performance on the field.

At this point, what I want to know is why is no one writing about how Cam’s academic records from Florida became public knowledge and how releasing those without his consent is illegal and a felony? That’s for more serious than is being acknowledged and I’d like to see those same sportswriters who so zealously wrote about what Cecil Newton MIGHT have done do the same thing about something that was DEFINITELY done.

I read on this site that a player or his representative, including a family member, is prohibited from receiving or agreeing to receive payment for attending a college to play sports. If that happens, the player is inelligible.

So, were to assume that Cam Newton wasn’t represented by his father?
Why doesn’t the rule apply to him, even if he was unaware, a dubius assumption
.
His past doesn’t matter? That’s a dumb stance. Patterns of action distinguish Everyone’s actions, whether good or bad.
So Warrick Dunn’s assessment carries more weight than the next person? Well, what if an even more credible source produces the opposite assessment of the situation. Does that mean we go get the handcuffs?

This whole thing stinks.

Newton is hands down the most dynamic and valuable player in college football this year. Of all time? That’s debatable.
His dad broke the rule. That’s not debatable.
And it appears to me that the rule may be being bent way, way far to excuse Cam.
If so, that is very bad for college football.

We ALL have a few coworkers who have cheated on their wife. Come on and tell us you told your son. Afterall, you share everything, don’t you?

He would have ONLY been ineligible at MSU where the playforpay scheme was discussed. Just like Albert Means at Alabama. A booster coughed up the money and Means was declared ineligible. He went on to play at Memphis where he WAS eligible since the infraction had not occurred at Memphis. It’s the exact same difference with Cam. Ineligible at one school; eligible at another.

Let’s see. The FIRST story that came out was that Cam said “the money was too much”. NOW all of a sudden the Dawgs have ad-libbed and added two words – “at Auburn” so that it reads “the money was too much at Auburn” just to give the lie more credibility and insinuation against Auburn. NO WHERE have those two words “at Auburn” been reported. NO WHERE! And show us the proof he even said it. Oh? Third party source?

You Losers who are still pimping your 1980 trophy go around and make up crap and now you’re going after Florida. And did we read correct? One of you actually entertained Richt going to Florida?

Have you seen the ESPN 30 on 30 titled “The greatest who never was”?
Some similar issues to Cam including a poor family who do not know to wait until the pros to get the money. The player in question played for Oklahoma and the Texas coach was sure Oklahoma has used money to lure him away. Somehow all the going ons managed to ruin him. After some problems developed at Oklahoma, he signed with the same pro league Herchel did. I don’t think he ever got much money. No one in the story comes out looking good.

Schltz…one of your most amateur articles…

Newton is, without a doubt, one of the most gifted college athletes to come through the NCAA in years..no question as to ability and with his size and the right coaching, he should do well in the NFL..
but, he has a lot to learn and I feel that if someone can get through his ego, he will be a real star…

As to his Dad and dealings, it would be hard for any intelligent person to believe that he was not aware of all of the dealings…maybe not directly involved, but too many things said do not add up to the point that he did not know…also, his own actions have proven that he was certainly not above sliding around the law and/or greater punishment at Florida… so, those who do not take the character flaws into consideration are not very smart or do not want to look into their own mirror..
should the character flaws be eliminated for consideration of the Heisman…since there was no overt active effort on his part in the financial dealings, it probably should not count against him, even though I would bet that he knew every detail… maybe the Florida issues were just normal juvy ignorance or just habit from his paternal upraising…

Let’s give him a chance….give him the award….the athletic part he earned outright… it is yet to really be seen what his real character is or will become… he will have lots of money come his way; maybe he needs a few days sessions with Mr. Vick to decide on his real future… that would honestly not be a bad time spent…!!!!

Difference between this and Reggie Bush? It’s called evidence. And to those of you who think he will eventually be found “guilty”: Hold tight to that dream. Organizations like the NCAA are not very likely to a) continue investigating when they’ve rendered judgment and b) overturn their decision later. Tends to make them look (more?) foolish.

The Auburn Hillbillies-

Come and listen to a story about a kid named Cam,
A liar and a thief, but Auburn didn’t give a damn
Then one day he got paid to play the game
And out of nowhere the investigators came
NCAA that is, judge and jury, Committee on Infractions

Well the first thing you know Auburn decides to go “all in”
Cheating didn’t matter just as long as we can win
Glendale, Arizona is the place we want to be
So we threw out the rulebook and called ourselves “family”
The Auburn family that is, yes we cam, “lean on me”

Well now it’s time to say goodbye to Cam and all our wins
He’ll play in the NFL with that same sh*t eatin’ grin
How in the world could we have been such fools,
Now we have to pick up the pieces of what’s left of our school

Sanctions that is, reduced scholarships, bowl bans

I’m a fan of Warwick Dunn but not his opinion on either Bush nor Newton. He essentially said if Bush would have paid the agent back all would be well. That is not true.

He wont be guilty until after the season, which will be after everyone makes their money on the game. Cam will be in the NFL next year and won’t be impaired one bit by any NCAA ruling. Chizik will move on to the NFL also, a la Pete Carroll, just before the NCAA wraps up its investigation and he’ll be just fine. The real loser in all this is Auburn. They will be put on probation, lose scholarships, not be able to compete in bowl games, and whatever else the NCAA decides. The fans and university are the real victims of the scum that is the Newton family.

Now we have this saga that really puts a bad taste in your mouth — it is ruining college football. Yeah — we’ve come to expect the crimes and corruption at the pro level, but now it is infecting the college ranks. Anyone who thinks for one minute that a kid who had no problem stealing from another student or cheating in his classes didn’t know anything about his Dad pimping him out — is living in fantasy land. The NCAA has established a precedent this time around that will reverberate through college football for a long long time. Me, personally — I’m sick and tired of hearing about it. I’m starting to feel about college ball the same way I felt about pro ball after they went on strike.

You are jealous, just admit it and get on with you life. You are so sanctomonious to assume nothing bad is going on at your program…..you are a fool. If Auburn was paying players $200 G to go to school there, they would be the Yankees of college football. THEY’D HAVE ALL THE TALENT. They’d have LaMichael James, AJ, Cam, Julio, DeQuan…..ALLL OF THEM. And yet they don’t….hmmmm how could that be? Either they don’t pay players or everyone does…..my money is on EVERYBODY DOES. Which makes you all blithering hypocrites. The only thing keeping your schools keister out of the fire is that your player didn’t all of a sudden turn into the best player in football in his 1st year after flirting with another program. All it takes is to say “He took the money” and your program is tainted. And you’ll be the 1st person jumping on Jeff Schltz when he calls your program dirty…..or dirtier in UGA’s case since half of them have a rap sheet.
