Who the hell cares. The damage is done. Everyone thinks we're cheaters and there's plenty of evidence to back it up. You think if we win the national championship that any article or blog post about us in the next fifty years is going to leave out the investigation? You think anyone cares that it was leaked by a disgruntled regent? Or that lots of people have their phones out at football games. Or that sign stealing may not have helped us anyway. Nope, doesn't matter. Our already dodgy reputation is toast.
I would love to see a former sign stealer explain how this worked. So many questions...
Every play you have 2-3 signalers, a board with 4-8 dumb pictures on it, you're likely changing the signs every game (if not more often), the qb is cross referencing a hidden wrist playbook, etc.
But then you do figure out what play call is coming. Now what? It can't be more specific than run, pass, or rpo right? And are you going to have a chart that tells you how to figure out which caller is real, which picture is real, etc. And then after they get their signal in, you give your sign? Are you really going to line up based on what you think your Rudy-like coach wannabe has predicted, and not what your professional DC and his staff has determined is the optimal defense?
It's quite an ingenious plan. Schedule softies for the first few games. Commit some recruiting and compliance violations. Self impose some suspensions. Get some assistants in-game training for head coach roles. Be ready to go for day one of Big Ten schedule.
Yotes are in town. Tickets seem to start at $230 which is insanity. Even more insane? Tickets for the ASU/BC game on Friday night start at $80. For middling college hockey.
The FiestaBowl seating map lists that the team in front of section 130 is the "higher ranked team". Presumably this is Michigan. SeatGeek, the official ticket scalper of the Fiesta Bowl, also lists Michigan as being in front of section 130. TicketIQ lists the home team as being in front of section 108, and the away team as being in front of section 130. So I think that your statement that we are most likely on the *HOME* sideline is incorrect.
As a computer engineering alum, I love that Zoltan's twitter feed is a mix of how to protect a field goal and why you should use snowflakeDB for your database architecture.
Oh stop. They lost respect when they littered the ice after the major. But are there really any fans who would stick around for an opponents trophy celebration?
Do the state borders really matter? Clemson is virtually the same distance to Athens as Atlanta. Would a top recruit really pick Georgia over Alabama because it's in-state?
If there was ever a game to have a Desperate need to win level above 100 in the last 20 years this is it. Loss will cause me to wish last week never happened.

Honestly it's amazing we still have athletic facilities named after this guy.
No, they're claiming they are much happier with a season long Big Ten championship than a fluke one-and-done game. Seriously...
Interesting that it's the NHL that funds the feasability study.
Are they allowed to remove a women's sport?
It's our destiny. No one controls it.
Fuck you Paul Finebaum
I root for laundry.
At least we know what Jim is going to look like in 30 years.
Theoretically, demand is probably about half of what it will be in a couple hours.
Didn't they say on the broadcast it had been twenty years?
That definition makes no sense in this context.

I want us to win our 1000th game, have a huge celebration, make a big deal. Then get a few games vacated and get to do it all again next season.

Everything's so blurry and everyone's so fake.
Man, I would give anything to have highly regarded academic institutions recruit my kids.
Of all the losses this year, this one is the most recent.
Poor FDU. Beats the #1 seed and their prize is two nights in Columbus.
If my math is right, Brian was still in the student section 5 years after he graduated?
We going to talk about where Steph was?
Were you also returning to the football team? Brian seems to indicate that's the only reason someone would enroll.
I think we can all agree on one thing after tonight: Twitter is the worst.
This one is my favorite. "Major rumors" about Harbaugh leaving, and they quote two random twitter users and a local sports radio guy.

My vote was for Jay Bilas.

Who's the 1?
I thought their kicker was supposed to be shaky.
Harbaugh wanted Corum to actually run the last over-the-head flip pass play to run up the score but he decided against it.
Why did we not run it on 3rd down?
Corum ran out of the tunnel
Who just said we never get INTs?
Little brother?
Nice comment to make once we win the game.
I don't get the mustache shaving offer at all? Are there people who want it shaved off?
And, you know, cancer.

Damn I'm old.
Everyone here wondering why OP has OSU friends and I'm more surprised he has a Browns ticket rep.
That's BTO. They were Canada's answer to ELP. Their biggest hit was TCB. That was how we talked in the seventies. We didn't have a moment to spare.
Oh stop. They lost respect when they littered the ice after the major. But are there really any fans who would stick around for an opponents trophy celebration?
I haven't seen any articles or announcements where Clinkscale is referred to as a DC, or Minter as a co-DC.
It's not just the caller to Finebaum's show. It's the replies to the tweet.

There's no way we get to the semi-final kickoff unscathed.

Also strange that OSU was not the final regular season game.
A real story or your aunt on facebook's story? And no benefit? What the hell are you talking about?
