Maurice Clarett confirms what we all already knew about Ohio State

If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'.

Man I wish ohio would have recruited me, I could always use more money, cars, and girls. I also wouldn't mind taking a golf or baseball class. I would be a straight A student. 

To happen were both honored at halftime by the school and fans.

Jim Tressel is one of the biggest phonies in the history of college football.

I'll have the opportunity to meet Mr. Clarrett tomorrow.  Maybe I'll ask a follow up question for my fellow MGoBloggers...

Pain is honesty leaving the body.

and Tressel is gone. They don't have to worry. Bastards!

Probably get neg-bombed for this, but reading the article, it seems like the dude went through a lot and appears to have come out the other side a better person for it.  I'm actually happy for the guy. 

When people with that kind of natural talent have the world given to them, and it all happens so easy, that's when trouble starts.  Particularly at a place like ohio where they're in the win-at-all-costs, sell your soul BUSINESS.  He stood no chance.  Good to see he has his head screwed on correctly today.

Tressell was/is a piece of sh*t.  He didn't care about any of these kids.  Can't think of anyone I'd want to piss on more.

Troy Smith did,for the betterment of tuos,fall on the sword. 

I still maintain...the vest is one helluva of guy. Stadium full endorse him several weeks ago advancing my statement.

Someone send this to Rhamzy at 11warriors.

as Viagra for a eunuch.

Please don't ask me to re-comb through the 11w comment section (even several of their mods are raging douchenozzles) and kill more braincells but I distinctly remember at least one poster there insisting that Tressel *did* report the Tat 5 as he was bound to do but still fell on his sword for the sake of the institution as a whole. 

Even if that was true (spoiler: it's not) you still have a decade long case of Tressel at the very least consistently invoking willful ignorance when it came to side benefits and other shenaningans his players were getting.  I can't argue against his merits as a football coach, but call a spade a spade - he's a sanctimonious hypocrite who built his empire on a foundation of lies, half-truths and an utter lack of integrity. 

My buddy went to a random osu game this year and said Clarett had a booth outside the stadium which wasn't affiliated to the university. He said for 20 bucks, you get his autograph and a picture taken with him. Sounds pretty desperate if you ask me.

anybody can take OSU athletic achievements seriously!  

OH!

Crazy old Maurice...hmmmmmm....crazy old Maurice.

Since the NCAA ignored most of their rules regarding enforcement, statute of limitations, and standards of proof with PSU, it's time for them to finally listen to Maurice Clarrett and hammer Ohio State with the sanctions they deserve for 10 years of cheating.  

Two more years of bowl ban and five years of 10 schollies per season would work nicely.

By even discussing this it suggest that there is some sort of debate or unknown about what went on at OSU and the culture that exists in Columbus.  Don't even give credibility to the notion that its not one huge scam operation by discussing it.  This is not shock or OMG got you...it's the status quo over there.  They cheat, it's acceptable.  Tressel had former coaches knocking him long before he went to OSU, not only after his fall from grace.  He is on of the biggest frauds the sporting world has ever seen.  

The saddest part of all of the cheating Vest's shenanigans is how they robbed a great man and coach, on Lloyd Carr, of the true legacy he deserved....not to mention all those UM athletes that were robbed of fair competition.

But as per a topic of disussion or debate....only the Ohio sheep fail to see the truth about that shady program.  Everywhere else, we know how tainted and filthy that program is.

Yawn
