Chuck Person should be the last domino that topples Auburn AD Jay Jacobs, writes @KevinScarbinsky https://trib.al/ZegsuXS

Scarblog: If the FBI is right, and it's gone public with a case both comprehensive and compelling, Chuck Person is done as a basketball coach. He'll never work as an assistant again, let alone land the head coaching job he worked so desperately to find. One of the two greatest players in Auburn history will be fortunate to avoid jail time.

The FBI has charged Person with federal crimes, including bribery and corruption, allegedly for abusing the trust of players and their families for his own financial gain.

It appears the Rifleman is not who a lot of us thought he was.

Auburn is now part of an ongoing national college basketball scandal that could touch an untold number of players, coaches and schools before the digging is done. The sham of amateurism is on display again for the world to see.

Auburn basketball likely is headed for an NCAA investigation of massive proportion that could prove far more difficult to weather than that 13-month colonoscopy into the football program that resulted in no major charges.

How many scandals can happen on one man's watch before that man is relieved of his duties? For Auburn Athletics Director Jay Jacobs, this should be one scandal too many.

The time for regime change in the athletics department, starting with the man at the top of the organizational chart, is long overdue.
