Not entirely true. The NCAA let Cam Newton play when it he was involved in a "pay for play" scheme while at Auburn.
In that case, a third party, allegedly working with the quarterback’s father, solicited six-figure payments in exchange for the quarterback’s signature on a letter of intent.
Auburn ruled him ineligible and sought and received eligibility reinstatement from the NCAA in time for him to play later that week.
Kevin Lennon, NCAA vice president for academic and membership affairs at the time, explained the reinstatement:
“Based on the information available to the reinstatement staff at this time, we do not have sufficient evidence that Cam Newton or anyone from Auburn was aware of this activity, which led to his reinstatement,” Lennon said.
