Ohio still has option to continue being "Ohio", Hyde not kicked off team per Cleveland news source (Edit: Confirmed by OSU)

Submitted by Butterfield on

Hold up everyone, OSU still has a chance to be the "Ohio" we have come to expect and Meyer may still have an opportunity, with the help of C-Bus authorities, to show off his old abilities to sweep things under rugs.

Can't vouch for this guy, but a google search shows he is sports anchor for the Cleveland Fox Affiliate...so credibility is at stake if he is wrong at least:

Don't throw Carlos Hyde under bus just yet, Ohio State has NOT officially kicked him off the team. They are surprised by Dispatch's report. 

GABE SPIEGEL @GABESPIEGEL

Carlos Hyde was NOT arrested. Victim to be interviewed by investigators tom. Victim was NOT knocked out.

GABE SPIEGEL @GABESPIEGEL

When police showed up, Hyde was NOT there at Sugar Bar 2. It's misdemeanor assault charge. He is on report as "person of interest." 

 
And....confrmed by OSU.  Hyde not kicked off team, suspended pending further investigation (or lack thereof, being this happened in Columbus).  Roby, at least, should at least face a decent investigation since he was stupid enough to leave the C-Bus safety net.  http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9499059/ohio-state-buckeyes-suspend-rb-carlos-hyde

"I have a clear set of core values in place that members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor," Meyer said in the statement. "There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions."

There are going to be some groundings, and possibly allowance withheld for these heinous crimes.

You can only keep running a program this way for so long.  Unfortunately, as was the case with Tressel, it will probably be a few years before the total implosion, and until that point, OSU will probably be pretty good. It's the formula for success in college football these days.

It appears most of this will disappear. There is supposedly security footage that contradicts the assault story and supposedly the Vonn Bell incident was made up by some angry Vol radio personality. I think the rug has been lifted and there is nothing left to do but sweep.

Does this stuff really matter? Urbz will do what Urbz does, which means in about 3 years he won't have the level of talent at Ohio as when he came in. His heart will hurt and he will retire for "family reasons".

I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong location, but apparently I'm not allowed to post a new topic so this will have to do. I am a buckeye, always have been. However lately...lets say since tatgate, I have been questioning my allegiance to this football program. At first it just seemed like a few knucklehead mistakes, things being blown out of proportion, all mixed with the medias hatred to OSU. But it just hasn't seemed to stop. I've been on 11w all day just shaking my head and wondering maybe we are the ones that are just completely blinded by our love for this team and this program truly is corrupt. So my question to you, my enemy, is...do I just throw in the towel? Find another team? I can't stop watching college football. It's just too good and my Saturdays would be empty without it. I can't believe I'm asking this question. Turn the tables, guys. If UM went through what we have been going through the past 3-4 years what would your response be? Be honest. Is Ohio that bad? If so would UM continue to go there for talent year in and year out? I'm just word vomiting at this point because I'm just at a total loss. I hope you can keep it classy. Mgoblog has always seemed to be so for the most part. Thanks guys
