NCAA Informs Ohio State Of Ongoing Investigation

According to 97.1 The Fan in Columbus, the NCAA has informed Ohio State University that they will be continuing their investigation.  The report comes from the Common Man and the Torg show with its sources coming from former OSU football players.

 

More details to come once I find a print source.  I know we all love to see it, but they broke the news on the radio with promise of following up on it. 

 

EDIT: Here's the link

EDIT #2: Torg now saying he thinks PRYOR is talking in an effort to get him into the Supplemental Draft.  Granted this is heresay and high speculation, but it raises some interesting questions.  Mind you, Torg is the one who broke this story on air when I posted it....before it made it to ESPN.

EDIT #3: 97.1 NOW REPORTING THAT THE SIGNING OF MEMORABILIA DID NOT STOP AFTER OSU "PUT THE CABOSH ON IT!"  This is getting unbelievable!  Torg says booster involved is from Northwest Ohio. They are livid! Tune in and laugh your ass off.

 

Gordon Gee had this to say:

Formerly akron_wolverine and columbus_wolverine.  New home, new name.  A year in Columbus was enough.

From the story:

"Among the reports since then: an ESPN "Outside The Lines" story alleging that former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor was paid thousands of dollars for signed gear by local memorabilia collector, photographer and Buckeyes fan Dennis Talbott; an "OTL" report about Pryor and other Buckeyes playing free rounds of golf with Talbott at a Columbus-area country club; and a Columbus Dispatch report that scrutinized dozens of automobile sales to Ohio State athletes and family members from a pair of Columbus-area dealerships.

Those media reports could be the subject of the ongoing enforcement investigation. If any of them are verified by NCAA investigators, they could result in additional major allegations against the school."

I think the last line of the paragraph above gave me a chubby.

Drip, Drip, Drip, for the next 8-16 months would just make my year! Nothing is worse than not having closure. Nothing is worse for them than speculation. Recruits do not like the unknown. The longer the NCAA takes to close the case the longer into the future it hurts them. I think the best case would be punishment finally inflicted around February or March 2013.

It seems ridiculous to tell them July 14th "Hey, you're fine and nothing more," then file something new a few weeks later.  Wasn't TSIO told the investigation was concluded (maybe that was confused media reports)?

they were told that they wouldn't be getting failure to monitor or lack of instutional control (the two harshest violations) for the tattoo for memorabelia stuff. The NCAA never said that the weren't done investigating other issues.

I think a lot of people (media included) took that to mean something very different. I took that to mean the SI and OTL stuff that came out.
