Two of the quotes below bothered me.
The one from Cam reeked of entitlement - not that the claims were
true or false, but "I don't have to answer that question, I am Cam
the mighty Heisman hopeful." Well, one thing that got him into the
Heisman race was his father's claims that he left Florida because he
didn't want to sit a year behind Tebow.
If his father's claims are false (and I am certain that they are) a
question about those claims would be both timely and relevant.
Then, the father - instead of denying the truth of the accusation -
goes into patented deflection mode; "Who is going to profit."
Gag me with a spoon.

"I'm not going to entertain something that took place not three
months, not six months, not a year but two years ago," he said
Tuesday, when asked about the cheating allegations. "I'm not going
to sit up here and say anything about it, whether I did or did not
do it, because I don't want to beat a dead horse talking about it."
"This is a character assassination attempt," Cecil Newton said
earlier Tuesday on a radio show. "Who is going to profit and why
are they are going to profit? We sure don't."
