More OSU "news" soon?
At the same time Les Miles' wife is looking in Ann Arbor
Seems to get repeated over and over and thus has made its own validity by mere repetition, but like Roswell, it's just asking us to believe the impossible. Guy retired less than a year ago for HEART HEALTH reasons. Stress is going to kill him.
So, he'd LEAP at tSIO's job, which brings more stress than UF? And a program that's going to be on probation, with loss of scholies? Yeah, no stress there.
Plus, his daughter completely refuted it. That's not dispositive, but counts for something, doesn't it? At least enough to offset the "looking for houses" thing.
Finally -- guy lived in OH, didn't he grow up there? He has millions. No surprise he might have one house in OH, another in Florida, etc.
tSIO is going to be a shell of itself after the sanctions hit. Recruits bailing this year (AHEM, Mr. 5* RB in OH, lqqking @ u), loss of scholies, bowl ban maybe. No big-name coach wants to inheret that disaster.
Although, Kiffie-kins might be available...?
The Roswell UFO incident was not aliens. According to a new book out(by a credible author) it was a remote controlled Soviet spy plane filled with alien like children genetically engineered by none other than Josef Mengele himself. I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

Why would UM want to go to a tainted program that is crippled for recruiting by massive scandals?
WITH YOUR FEET IN THE AIR AND YOUR HEAD ON THE GROUND
Here's a good one. Hardly anything, especially if things are prepared-for and scripted. Or, like baseball, in the tunnel or out of sight.
"Smith has confirmed that the five-game suspension actually amounts to only a 15-hour suspension — the time during which the Buckeyes are playing games."

Just can't imagine how/why OSU would be financing vacations for players. Seems a stretch, even for them. The only viable scenario would involve boosters, right?
right. i think most of this stuff is booster related (ie cars). A university wouldn't knowingly do these things, but boosters are very difficult to control.
But is it anything new or just coverage of the fact that there have been a lot of scandals this offseason...
One thing is for sure - THAT kind of press is not going to do them any favors in recruiting.
I don't subscribe so I don't know, but I gotta imagine it's the latter. I doubt there's any new information, unless they're the ones breaking the story referred to in this thread. And in that case, we'd have already seen 2 weeks worth of ads on ESPN to watch their NEW OUTSIDE THE LINES SPECIAL REPORT MAY 21ST IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE RAPTURE.
This is getting out of control. At what point does the death penalty become a possible sanction? Has that point been reached yet?
SMU got the death penalty for having a university sanctioned payroll that they didn't discontinue after being severely sanctioned for having a university sanctioned payroll. Nothing OSU is officially accused of (even counting these rumors) even remotely approaches that. It sounds closer to the sanctions that blasted Alabama a while back.
Just wait till it comes out that Troy Smith threw the National Championship Game and that Tressel knew about it after the fact.
That one is juicy. Hehe. Probably too juicy but man would it be awesome.
We've been getting about one of these posts each week. Someone knows a bigshot in Columbus who heard something about more going on at OSU. They can't all be BS at this point, right?
If there actually are housing, vacations, etc extra benefits being given out by OSU boosters, this is program destroying type stuff. USC is going to be trashed in a couple of years simply because they won't have the numbers (aside: who are they going to cut going into the season?) to compete and that was about one player. This is about a lot of players and the coach. Things may be really, really bad there in a couple years once the smoke clears.
Before there is any definite new allegation, before there is a source backing up any new allegation, you guys are deciding on The Death Penalty.
Have any of you considered burning at the stake, dunking, or the stocks?
I didnt know they still sold soap in boxes yet you keep finding them for quick usage. Do you work at a recycling facility or something?
that everything is awesome right now. cant confirm yet, check back in two days
Nothing yet? Did your source fall through? Scout membership run out? Magic 8ball spring a leak?
I knew a guy from Columbus once that went to Michigan. He claimed he never liked the Buckeyes - but we all knew that was a total lie. He turned out to be one of the biggest snakes I've ever met in real life.
Suck it Miller.
Does anyone remember exactly what Alabama did and what their penalty was? USC got dinged for Reggie Bush's family getting housing, and the penalty was a loss in scholarships and a ban on postseason play. I am trying to figure out where OSU ranks in the hierarchy of skulduggery . . .
SMU all over again
please resign and appease the gods - I can't even get outside to carve my annual Block M in my backyard lawn.
Typical precip days this time of year 42% or so, but we've had:
- Wetzel breaks story, then rediculous press conference and 2 game suspension - clear days
- Next 8 days - 50% rainy/snowy
- Players' appeal denied, JT says, oh, I'll stretch my 2*3 hour suspension to 5*3 hours - clear day
- Next 7 days - 71% rain/snow/thunderstorms
- Well, so there really wasn't confidentiality as it comes out mails were sent to TP's "mentor" - clear day
- Next 30 days - 63% rain/snow/thunderstorms
- OSU Notice of Inquiry - another rainy day
- Next 11 days - 82% rain/thunderstorms
- Dispatch reports on cargate - yet another rainy day
- 12 days since - 75% measurable rain, but storms came through on 2 of the 3 "clear" days as well
Columbus also had lowest high temperature on record on May 16 and 17 (not quite hell freezing over, but...)
the weather in Columbus sucks. Blame God or yourself.
So we have a giant thread because some shlub's "friend" (and like everybody, this is no ordinary friend, he is a Notre Dame "alum" told him some rumor?
Congrats. MGoBLog: Making Scout look intelligent one thread at a time.
Your parents didn't hug you enough as a child, did they?
Great use of Paint!
