In the end, I must say that Phil Steele generally makes me think of Ed Glosser ("Trivial Psychic") for some reason.

2 hours 53 min ago Some Possibilities...

At least my little corner of the company has heavy involvement with organizations such as:

- Gleaner's Food Bank

- People's Community Services

- Girlstown of Belleville

- Race For The Cure

- Oakland Literacy Council

- The Hope Foundation

-  United Way

 

5 hours 13 min ago Worst Of Both Worlds?

It was, in my estimation...

5 hours 43 min ago Went To The Site...

....and I was disappointed as there was no pop-up ad which asked me if I wanted my free credit report for only $29.95.

That being said, after clicking numerous links and remembering that I still had an active Excite page which I should probably take down at long last, I will say  that I had to zoom up to about 200% before I could read the stats page, and that was with my glasses ON. 

I guess saying that we may not match last year's record (which is possible, but I imagine we are within a game of it either way) and then predicting the possibility of playing in the conference championship game make #22 seem like a somewhat low number. 

13 hours 54 min ago Violations Per Capita

“If you have a sport that recruits a large number of athletes, then you’re going to have more of those. If you have a smaller sport with 12 athletes, say women’s golf or men’s tennis or one of those — and they have a consistent number of recruiting violations, then we’ve got a problem.” - Gene Smith

So, if you look at this in terms of "violations per capita" at Ohio, the NCAA should really be far more concerned with sports like golf and tennis, or indeed, per the article, men's synchronized swimming. Clearly, there is some need for cultural change in the non-revenue varsity sports to stem the tide of secondary violations. 

Actually, I understand the whole notion of having an expected number of violations because of the sheer size of the department (employees and athletes) - 40, in Smith's case, but I would really like to see "expected versus actual" broken down by sport. If  Smith really does have a problem at "10", as he claims, let alone 40, then a little meaningful analysis of the department never hurts at  Ohio, right?

It will be interesting to know what happens once these are "processed" - if they are all secondary violations, then Ohio will likely be allowed to continue its "well-established practice of operating in this way."

23 hours 19 min ago Somewhat Local...

http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Berkley-Edwards-127400

That is the complete list to date - mostly MAC schools to date have made offers, but there have to be several schools  that could use a three-star all-purpose back. As someone whose high school was in the same conference as Chelsea, it's great to see SEC (NTSEC) talent get some looks now and again. 

1 day 18 min ago High-Level Breakdown...

So, because I love Excel, I took Mr. Steele's information and toyed with it for a little while - 

The most heavily represented teams are Michigan State (15), Ohio (15) , Michigan (12)  and Nebraska (12) , as they comprise nearly 40% of the list by themselves. Wisconsin, Penn State and Purdue have 10 each. 

By division, he literally has them in a dead heat at 50% each. Between all the teams, he has 8 MSU defensive players, 7 Ohio offensive players and 6 players each from the Michigan and Wisconsin offense, and the Ohio defense getting mentions. 

Among those units not represented, Iowa, Illinois and Indiana special teams and  the Minnesota offense have exactly zero representation on this list. 

 

1 day 5 hours ago The Law Of The Emperor...

"I was kicking a field goal and happen to hit a defensive lineman in the groin.. Along with the spitting up of blood, it looked like it hurt :)" - Emperor Zoltan

The justice of the Emperor is harsh and is applied swiftly. This was merely for invading his personal space, more or less. Imagine what happens if you actually DO something to upset the Emperor...

1 day 8 hours ago BHGP Has Done Better...

This one is "meh", in my opinion, although a full-face respirator is an innovative safety enhancement for Division I football regardless, and if someone would like to paint the exterior of my house wearing this, that would be pretty cool, I must admit.
