Storm Klein Reinstated

According to reporter Tim May for the Columbus Dispatch, Storm Klein has been reinstated by Urban Meyer and will be with the team this year.

Tim May ‏@TIM_MAYsports

The Dispatch has learned that, barring a late complication, Storm Klein has been reinstated to the Ohio State football team.

Practice makes perfect. Unless you're the Buckeyes. Then you have to cheat.

College football is no longer an extra-curricular activity.  It is a business.  The only way that gets reigned in is if the NCAA grows a pair and starts enforcing penalties for everything.  Even that would be disingenuous, as the NCAA culture pushes teams so hard to succeed and then puts a lot of arbitrary rules in place that indirectly prevent that success.

The student athlete system is now a joke.  Those that use it as scripture are the butt of that joke...

Pretty much can't agree with you more.  I don't know if you initially meant this more tongue-in-cheek, but there's much truth to what you're writing, regardless.  I've been saying all along that I think Fitz will play the majority of the game (based on nothing but personal speculation).  I understand Hoke is a great leader and mentor to these young men but part of me thinks he knows this game/sport is essentially a business.  His job in said business: to win games.  This may all get taken the wrong way by some of you, I'm sure of it.  I don't think these players should be given free passes.  They deserve punishment for their negative and deleterious actions.  But it's out of our control (as fans) as to what the punishment for these collegiate  athletes is.  Coaches dole it out and we sit back and watch (and "critique").

To decry a lack of integrity or morals or some diabolical motive in everyone else's actions while ignoring one's own unprincipled actions is myopic and self-serving. This isn't really about the school, it's about fans trying to posture as though the school is somehow above the fray, that to play Touissant would sully the school's name.

There's quite enough of this gamesmanship as it is, and more colorful metaphors to describe this kind of "contest". But this kind of grandstanding is dumb and should stop.

But not to worry, Storm's suspension sounds like it will only be 2 games, not 3...so look for him against Cal.

OSU's 2nd game is against UCF, who are predicted by Phil Steele to end the season ranked #15 overall. They're also the favorite to win C-USA, and I believe have been given better odds at an upset than Cal. They definitely aren't a top-tier team, but they shouldn't be scrubs either.

Strange reactions in this thread considering we have guys suspended currently whose status is still up in the air, and considering Klein's charges have been dropped.  Why would he be suspended for the year if there's no more case?  This thread is making us look pretty foolish.

Yes.  But that doesn't really matter if she's too afraid of the lunatic Buckeye fans to do anything about it, which I suspect is part of the issue.  Such is life down here in Ohio.  I don't know of any coach who's going to suspend a guy for something he's not convicted of.  This isn't the NFL.

Dez Wells was just expelled from Xavier for something he wasn't convicted of and apparently isn't even going to be charged with. And, needless to say, he was removed from the basketball team about a millisecond after he was kicked out of the school.

Every case is different, of course, but it isn't true that there always has to be a conviction before there are any long-term consequences.

But it's still an example of an athlete that's out even though the (alleged) victim (allegedly) declines to testify against him. I don't mean to suggest this is what should have happened to Klein--from the rumors out there, there's a world of difference between the two incidents--but not getting convicted isn't, and shouldn't be, the end of the story in every case.

Most OSU fans were fine with him being booted, actually.  We try to limit our juror/witness intimidation to cases where the defendant is a starter.  This isn't East Lansing, forgodssake.

Reinstate a non-John Simon guy on the same defense that faced us last year?  I'll take it.

“The charges that would have violated our core values have been totally dismissed."

So, disorderly conduct is within the new core values at Ohio.  Good for other star players to know where the line has been drawn.

Although I disagree with the decision to let him come back, Ohio's disorderly conduct statute is a catchall that includes everything from noise complaints, to giving someone the bird, to loitering, to, in some areas, spitting on the sidewalk.

Good thing you left all of the information out. All charges but disorderly conduct dropped, and he will be suspended at least two weeks for that.

The level of Urban hate around here is pretty ridiculous, if it were RCMB saying these things about Hoke we would all laugh at them. I have my own reasons for disliking the guy, but no matter what decisions he makes people around here find a way to hate on him. In this specific case, I think he handled it very well. Most of the charges were dropped, so no shit he should face a lesser punishment. And he's still getting punished for a relatively minor crime. My only gripe would be kicking him off the team before the legal system worked itself out, but outside of that what has Urban done that Hoke wouldn't?

This thread is all kinds of stupid.

A player gets suspended for three games for disorderly conduct and people make fun of Urban Meyer.

I can't fault him for this specific exchange, but the man is a total scumbag.  Read the ESPN article on his situation.  The guy regularly disregards his family and has his head up his own ass so he can walk around smelling his own shit.  If my son ever ends up being some football super recruit, I wouldn't let him play for Urban even if he was the coach of Michigan.  His priorities are out of whack, and even though ESPN tries to paint him as a victim, he still comes off sounding like a complete dick.

I would poke fun at Hoke if he was the OSU coach, but I wouldn't despise him simply for coaching our rivals.  I know that emotional reactions are unpopular on this blog, but the dude seriously rubs me the wrong way.

Hail.

I'm kind of in the same boat in regards to Urban and find this whole Storm Klein situation to be "meh."

But on the other hand, I figure if this raises some eyebrows to folks or media members who see this at only face value, and they question the "core values" of OSU and Urban's ethics, I will have absolutely no problem with that.

It's hard to admit but I agree completely! I hate the Michigan double standard. I do believe Michigan tries to be better than most but sometimes it doesn't always work out. As much as we try and want to believe... Michigan is not perfect.

He's not a factor besides maybe some depth.  Way too slow. If I see him against us, I'm smiling.
