ATLANTA -- Auburn athletics director Jay Jacobs says he has talked to the NCAA about recent allegations surrounding his program, and the NCAA is "satisfied" with his defense, according to CBSSports.com reporter Jeremy Fowler.

Jacobs continued Thursday to vehemently deny allegations against Auburn published in a report authored by Selena Roberts of Roopstigo.com in March, which included quotes from former players alleging pay-for-play, grade changes and discrimination ranging from 2007 to 2011.

"I'm going to fight for Auburn," Jacobs told AL.com on Thursday. "When somebody puts something out there that I don't believe to be true, I'm going to fight back and so that's what we're going to do and we're tired of it. I'm tired of it. When people get the story wrong, it's my responsibility, and the fight in me, I'm going to get it right."

An NCAA spokesperson Thursday would not comment on Jacobs' conversation with CBSSports.com -- a common practice by the NCAA when asked about allegations.

"I cannot comment on current, pending or potential investigations," Emily Potter, NCAA associate director of public and media relations, wrote in an email to AL.com.

The Auburn athletics department has strongly refuted the report, backing up its stance with point-by-point rebuttals in recent weeks. Through its own reporting, AL.com discovered inconsistencies in Roberts' report, and players quoted in the story have also said they were either misquoted or allegations in the story were flat-out wrong.

Auburn has also refuted details in an ESPN: The Magazine and E:60 report claiming widespread use of synthetic marijuana use on the 2010 team that went on to win the BCS national championship in January 2011.

Jacobs and Auburn University president Jay Gogue fielded questions about the allegations during an event in Atlanta announcing the creation of the SEC Network.

"When you get in and begin to do all your careful reviews and analyze everything said, we didn't find anything," Gogue said. "In my judgment, it was a story that went out and was refuted."

Jacobs said Auburn has been in contact with the NCAA on "a lot of different issues."

Yahoo! Sports reported in November that NCAA investigators were looking into potential violations involving Auburn recruits, players, coaches, boosters and third parties. One of the central figures was 2012 signee Jovon Robinson, who was ruled ineligible by the NCAA in August after it was discovered his academic transcript in high school had been forged.

Former assistants Trooper Taylor and Curtis Luper declined to say whether they were taken off the road recruiting in 2012 due to possible NCAA violations, which were alleged by Danny Sheridan.

When asked Thursday, Jacobs did not say whether the case has been closed by the NCAA.

"The NCAA, we've worked with them on a lot of different issues and so we'll continue to work with them any time we have to or any questions they have, we're happy to answer," Jacobs said. "But I know this, I'm 100 percent confident in our compliance efforts at Auburn."

Auburn expanded its compliance department on April 22 with the hiring of Dave Didion, who served as an NCAA director of enforcement for 14 years. The compliance staff at Auburn stands at seven full-time staff members.
