Former Auburn quarterback Cam Newton throws at Auburn's Pro Day on March 21 at the Woltosz Football Performance Center.
Cam Newton doesn’t go to the Heisman Trophy ceremony each year because he was told in 2010 that his father shouldn’t be present at the ceremony when he won it, Newton revealed in a podcast visit with Shannon Sharpe published Thursday.
“I remember winning the Heisman, the ceremony, stuttering, I was nervous — but I didn’t want to be there,” Newton said. “I wanted to be with my dad. I wanted to be with my family.” He said his recruitment coming out of junior college was entirely different from his recruitment coming out of high school, saying it was more business-like. Not business-like in that money was involved, but business-like in that he wanted to make an educated decision on what offense he best fit in and what team was in the best position to get him to a BCS game. He said he was confident that if he had that kind of season and played on that platform he’d be a top 10 pick in the NFL Draft.
Newton’s side of the story is completely different — with him saying it’s not that unreasonable for any recruit to pick another school besides Mississippi State — and saying those sources were Dan and Megan Mullen. Cam says Cecil took the rapNewton said his father took a fall that season to expedite Newton’s return to the playing field when presented the opportunity to do so.
“It could have come out of mouth; that’s what happens. These guys try to make money on their own, they are kind of like escort services. That’s what I call them, escort services.”
