Greg Jackson's camp = Cheaters?

Seems like this issue was just swept under the rug and we're led to believe that Marquardt and GSP are innocent. I don't know, I just finished reading BJ Penn's book and basically he seems genuinely honest about the whole issue.

I wish I could quote the book, but I don't have it on me at the moment but here's the jist of it:

When Sean Sherk lost to GSP, BJ overheard Sherk talking to his coaches saying "I couldn't grab a hold of him, his legs were covered in vaseline." BJ was thinking to himself "Shut the fuck up Sherk, quit crying, you just got your ass kicked". Later, BJ would soon sympathize for Sherk, as he would find out for himself a few months later with his match with GSP.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission saw for themselves that GSP was being covered with some sort of foreign substance, but nothing was really done about it.

I just find it more than a coincidence that two people from the same camp (GSP and Marquardt) were being accused of greasing. I understand that the UFC wants to protect GSP's squeaky clean image, so sweeping this issue under the rug seems like the logical thing to do.
