I'm not defending Tress for the lies, but Pryor has been a cancer on the program.

Never thought I would say it, but thank god he turned down Penn State.

You read the SI article yet? It's pretty damn good and in-depth.

i liked the piece on rigging the summer camp goodie bag winners. that was a nice touch.

haha, yeah. Classy. This quote was pretty rough


"In the morning he would read the Bible with another coach. Then, in the afternoon, he would go out and cheat kids who had probably saved up money from mowing lawns to buy those raffle tickets. That's Jim Tressel."

I know this guy is a natural on TV talking football, but at some point you'd think he'd be tempted to try out all the scheme studying he's been doing at the college level. Gruden spent hundreds of hours going to school on Chip Kelly's system and several others. I suspect it would be quite a lab for him.

Does Bruce Feldman eat an entire plate of pot brownies before watching MNF???? That's the only way to explain that comment.

if they get hit with tough sanctions, which they should but will the NCAA have the balls to do it, what good coach is going to take that job before the sanctions are up though? got to think scholarship penalties are coming. always thought Tressel was a shaky dude anyway. not surprised about anything like this from him. good riddance.

I agree with you. I think they are gonna get hit with some pretty bad sanctions and will keep Fickel (sp?) as head coach until they are penalty free. When they are in the free and clear, they will drop this guy and go for the best hire that they can make.

i can see Luke staying around during the sanctions, and i can also see him keeping the job post sanctions IF he does a solid job during that time frame. it's pretty rare for a Buckeye coach to actually be fired for on field performance.

very good point

MNF should be Tirico and Jaws. Michaels and Collinsworth are fantastic as a 2 man crew on SNF. The less I have to hear gruden, the better the broadcast will be

Wouldn't it be fantastic if the ultimate late flag got called on OSU and they had to give the 2001-2 National Title Back to the team that rightfully won the game? The best part is people actually believed the "cleaner" program came out on top (I won't say "won" because that would desecrate the meaning of the word). Enjoy your time in NCAA football purgatory Buckeye fans, the U shall exact revenge this fall.

Wowowowowow. This is quite possibly the most laughable thing I have ever read. I hate Ohio State but is a Miami fan really criticizing another school for being dirty? This is gold.

RW81233

Miami has had one kid serve jail time in like 4 years, and he now plays in the Big 10 for Purdue (Robert Marve). Their graduation rate also skyrocketed. However they just fired their coach for losing too many games. Of course the comment was meant partially in jest, but was basically pointing out the ridiculousness of anyone rooting for a successful major college football team calling anyone else's team out for being "dirty".

Fair enough but jail time shouldn't really be the barometer. Every big time school is getting away with some type of shit. The Ohio State issue isn't that big of a deal as it stands right now, the biggest problem is Tressel hiding it.

Kemba Walker also just graduated early and says he has only read one book in his life.

RW81233

Well, as a professor, I can honestly say that their are several students who have graduated by reading less than one book in their lives. It's annoying but their is so much information on the internet and elsewhere that you could literally earn a degree by being intelligent with where you reveal how you obtained information for papers, etc. I try to make it difficult for those students to make it through, but I am sure there are plenty that do.

Honestly, reading isnt needed for most classes to pass

Like I've always said...

Fuck Tressel!
Fuck OSU!!


OSU vs USC should play next year in the "Corrupt Piece of Shit Bowl" - Sponsored by Goldman Sachs.
The winner only gets a one year suspension...
