you're challenging the ncaa. >> i'm challenging the ncaa but even as it relates to cecil newton or reggieh's father, why would we impose an obligation on a 21-year-old man to know and police his parents? and then hold him liable for the conduct of his parents? the only reason we do it is because he's an athlete. and we don't do that in america. we don't treat people differently in america based on their common characteristics. >> i wholehearted -- >> the only reason they do it to these men is they're fleets. >> excuse me, i agree with you there. my only problem in this instance, if any of this stuff is true, is cecil newton directly was responsible for where cam was going to go. okay? if we find out there's throughout evidence where he engaged in these conversations to get money for cam newton to play at these universities, then we have a real problem. david, i'll agree with you all day long. we have a messed-up system with the ncaa, but we're talking about a specific player. i totally agree with you. this is a whole separate fight with the ncaa because it is an issue. look what happened
