Newton wins the Heisman

This past Saturday, Auburn's Cam Newton won the heisman trophy despite his stained story of the NCAA determining that his father tried to make him go to Mississippi State so he could get $180,000. However, the NCAA cleared him to play because they had no proof or any type of evidence that showed he or Auburn knew about his father's scheme. they're still investigating the story but Cam Newton has denied doing anything wrong. However, many are speculating that this story might just be a repeat like the one of Reggie Bush and that he may end up having to return his trophy. As far as right now, the only thing thaat has been done is that the NCAA has decided not to punich Cam Newton but to limit his father's access to Auburn athletics. His father was not in attendance at hte Heisman ceremony which stirred up a lot of talk but his father said it was simply because he did not want to "rob cam of this sacred moment". espite this investigation, it didnt keep voters from making their choice and making Newton one of the most voted players ever. My personal opinion is that as far as everyone is concerned the only one who did anything wrong in this situation is Cam's father. I don't think that Cam Newton should be robbed of his trophy just for what his father did. He earned that and despite arguments, he should be able to keep it. He worked hard and as long as his father has limited access it shouldnt happen again, also because its speculated that Cam Newton will easily be an NFL draft pick.
