NCAA finds no new OSU violations, no LOIC, no failure to monitor
How do we contact these pricks. Give me an e mail address for Emmert,, Lach etc. It is time to blow this shit up.
Fuck the NCAA. Fuck OSU. Fuck cheaters. And fuck the people who don't stop it and let it go on.
Yep it figures they would get away with it. Oh well just proves how messed up the system really is. All I know is if you are a football player for Michigan just go on out and get a "loaner" car because its not against the rules apparently.
Dont get upset however just sit back and laugh at the low life Buckeyes who are not worried about the fact that their beloved coach is a liar and the school they love fired him and also lied. Watch them revel in the fact that they got away with it. Let them show you how much integrity they actually have.
At the end of the day we always new what that school stood for now we just know we were right all along.
I think you may be off with number 1 (although I hope not). If they're only giving up 2 schollies a year, i doubt the NCAA feels a bowl ban is warranted.
One more bit of INFORMATION: at least is two words.
God knows they can't fuck you, because they're CASTRATED.
Personally, I am fine with them not getting any type of penalty. I want and expect UM to regain dominance of the B1G, and it will be even more satisfying without the help of the NCAA.
I am sure Greg Mattison could give a rat's ass what the sanctions are that Ohio receives as he plans to bring the hammer that fcuks.shit.up for Braxton Miller this autumn.
Fair enough.
Thank you for going there.
Good Dr. Saturday response to this.

I don't for a second believe that tOSU is contrite. I believe they did the necessary evil of offering up the sacrificial Tressel lamb, but not before they gave him the sweet deal they did. If the NCAA doesn't respond with additional sanctions, I hope the media skewers them for being the weak, ineffective organization they are.
(Ohio is claiming that) it's not Ohio State's coverup. It's Jim Tressel's. In fact, Ohio State acted — or rather, reacted — like a model citizen in removing the bad apple. (And the bad apple's rogue quarterback.) Is it really possible for the people in charge to have that little interest in enforcing their own rules, as long as the paperwork is in order?Another great, unanswerable question, that we need to find a 4th grader to answer.
But it's beginning to look like a much murkier answer than almost anyone outside of Columbus, Ohio, has imagined before this afternoon.Suck it, trolls above saying only Michigan fans think Ohio should be heavily punished. Non-Michigan fan commenting on which side is in the minority of public opinion.
The Ohio State and USC cases are similar in the sense that they both involve a star accepting a lot of money from shady characters on the fringes of the program, but the the case against OSU is on a different level. Where USC's violations (as chronicled by the NCAA's final verdict) involved a single player, Ohio State's involve at least six. Where USC consistently disputed that anyone affiliated with the program knew what was going on with Bush — as well as the sketchy evidence the NCAA used to reach that conclusion — the paper trail leading from Jim Tressel's hard drive is an indisputable smoking gun. Which he intentionally concealed as the offending players led the Buckeyes to another conference championship. Ohio State's star player(s) and its head coach did the crime, and no one denies it. Tressel's silence after being tipped to the investigation is the definition of a program failing to cooperate. He's the head coach: He is the program.
Well, I guess I'm not surprised - the more the NCAA dragged its feet investigating matters, the more you had a sense that OSU had dodged a bullet when Tressel left and Pryor skipped out. This also makes me think nothing will happen to Auburn and Newton, and pretty much the rest of the SEC and the various recruiting issues you see down there.
The party most aggrieved by this ruling has to be USC - they were pillored for the Reggie Bush fiasco, but OSU stands to lose far less for what was, at best, a bunch of athletes trading equipment and autographs for money and gifts. To me, the latter seems far worse than the prior, at least when you consider just how many people were aware of issues going on in Columbus.
Don't forget about ESPN's FOIA lawsuit against Ohio State. If we have learned anything from the past couple years, new violations are almost inevitably revealed by the media, and NCAA investigations then follow. And considering the money and effort ESPN is putting into that lawsuit, there WILL be a story about whatever documents come out of it. There will more than likely be an NCAA violation uncovered. The only question is whether that violation is a big one or not.
By my reading of the Ohio Supreme Court rules, OSU's response is due Wednesday, August 3. More could be revealed then. Or not.
I'm expecting the NCAA to accept Ohio's self-imposed penalties (as weak as they are). Ohio has likley already coordinated with the NCAA on the proper punishment (I believe Smith said as much in his press conference on the self-imposed penalties). The NCAA is unlikely to dig as much as the sports writers and even if they did people are less likely to talk to the NCAA (you can't go "off the record"). TP is gone and with him the NCAA's ability to interview him. So.... Dunn is probably unlikely to make a switch. All in all, this will be significant b/c it brought down Tressel. Overall, though the coaching loss and uncertainty that has hovered over the program (leading to lost time and decommits) will be the biggest blows to the Buckeyes.
Are you scrubs so pitiful that your only hope for success was to see Ohio St suffer some unwarranted Bowl ban and/or loss of schollies? That is sad.
I tell ya what, as a token of our sympathy for your talentless program you can keep Kalis. We'll be running over him November of 2012. Havea nice day!
Welcome. Welcome back. Nice to see you so confident you can come back here and act like nothing happened.
As a token of my sympathy to your ignorance here is a picture of The Senator. He was just looking out for his players,right?. Enjoy.
Oh, I forgot, he's not your coach any more.
Sorry about that.
This proves it is all about the money. The inmates are running the asylym. AS far as college football is concerned, there is no "god". Looks like cheaters will win and if you follow the rules you'll be left behind. The schools that follow the rules can't win any championships in this scenario. Whoever cheats the best, will win.
Sad but true... The NCAA hasn't officially handed out penalties yet, but it sure looks like osu is going to walk.
(singing)
Build a Bonfire!
Build a Bonfire!
Put Treeeeeeeeessel* on the top
Put the Ncaa* in the middle
And we'll Burn the fucking lot!
(repeat)
* = insert TP, Fickel,gordon gee etc
mispost..server was wacked out. didnt say that i even posted it. :/
HAHA...You guys thought we were getting the death penalty??? Sorry its not going to happen...enjoy a one year recruiting advantage..oh wait we might still get them back once they realize Hokester was feeding them a line of bull&^#@!
Whoa there truck driver. You better pull that rig to the side of the road, it's dangerous to be posting and driving
LOLLOL...is there a reason all osu redneck write the same way????? Did ya'll go to the same school....or come from the same dad????......or is it just a coincidence.....I would like to know!!!???!!!
What a proud day to be a buckeye! You've apparently managed to get away with your cheating, covering up your cheating, and lying about covering up your cheating. Again. Congrats!
Did they 'get away with it'? Ohio fans are fcuking delusional. Remember this guy below who was their moral compass and coaching leader?
What happened to that guy?
Perhaps the NCAA will pull a Joffrey Barathian on TSIO's Eddard Stark?

Page 4 - details timeline of events noting benefits from Rife back to Fall 2008. Maybe NCAA could take away 2008/2009 seasons from OSU as well?
Not that this whole vacating wins business really means anything, but still I wouldn't mind seeing TP (and RR vs Ohio) completely erased from the record books.
is that there wasn't as much money involved here as there was in USC. Remember, Reggie Bush alone involved hundreds of thousands of dollars (he was sued for $290,000, there was the nice house etc...). The only accusation here involving a substantial amount of money approaching that is the Talbott autographs for money (ESPN report). I guess the report was either wrong or the NCAA just could not find enough evidence. Taken together, if you believe the number of players involved according to the reports, the money could end up somewhere approaching Bush alone (although it's hard to quantify car discounts), which would justify a failure to monitor.
The fact that there wasn't as much money here allows OSU play a sympathy card about how disadvantaged athletes should have been given stipends blah blah blah...a nice diversion from what most of us think is willful blindness. USC (and Auburn potentially with Cam Newton) could not play that card because the gifts were substantial. I absolutely think that angle factored into the decision because now everyone is talking about stipends.
Maurice Clarett claimed he was getting paid and driving free loaner cars way back in 2002. Nine years later and the same things are happening but the NCAA doesn't consider it LOIC? What the fuck do you have to do to get hammered for LOIC?
I knew it. The NCAA joke continues. I knew they wouldn't have the pills to come down on tOSU for breaking the rules the past DECADE. Once again they prove to be a disciplinary organization with the will or inclination to actually discipline. Why would anyone follow the rules if you are merely slapped on the wrist if you break them. Unbelievable.
Posts over on bucknuts, show that even though the NCAA may not be doing anything to tsiO, they're more than willing to hammer each other. The bad mouthing Spielman now, because he gave honest opinions about the program, when the storm was just starting. Classy bunch to the end.
uuggghhhh I seriously fucking hate the NCAA. when will they grow a backbone and finally uphold what they claim to endorse?
can we just pay players then?
