JT Barrett was driving a brand new Ford Explorer with dealership tags

So says a OSU poster on the Ozone board. Can't wait to hear Gene Smith tell us this is just another "isolated incident."

I wish we could just ship those cheating cooler poopers off to the $EC where they belong.

I went with applesauce, pudding, tomato soup, and milkshakes (without a straw) for the first few days, then I added soft solid foods like mac and cheese and instant potatoes. I was back eating all foods within a week. As long as you don't play with the stitches, use a straw, or rush to eating solid food you should be back to eating solid within 4 or 5 days.

The Columbus Dispatch has reported that the NCAA and Ohio State are investigating more than 50 vehicle purchases by Buckeyes players, family members and friends over the past. Sports Illustrated, citing a source close to the investigation, reported that Pryor, who will be a senior this fall, might have driven as many as eight cars in his three years in Columbus.

Pryor drove up to a players-only team meeting on Monday night in a coal-black Nissan 350Z sports car with 30-day plates.

"dealer plates" and "30 day temp tags".  Temp tags are for when you have buy or lease a vehicle which grant you 30 days to go get your car registered, get real plates, etc.  Dealer plates are for cars the dealership owns.  They are used for employees rides, demo drives and loaner vehicles for service.  I used to work at a dealership and believe me, there is no way in hell a typical dealership would loan or demo that car over \night to a 20 year old, if this is true.

caught in the act driving a car with dealer plates.

Dealer plates. Nobody who isn't on a test drive, let alone a DUI spin, is driving a car with dealer plates. The most logical answer is that the kid is connected with the Buckeyes football program, not that the kid's family couldn't afford to get him a car.

The next logical question you might ask yourself is this, if his family did buy or lease him the car, why isn't it registered in their name or his, and why would the car have dealer plates? I mean if a coach is driving around with dealer plates, that would be suspicious. But this?

If you aren't suspicious about this, well, you believe Ohio State doesn't have boosters who help the program with extra benefits not available to other students. Yeah, it happens.

I think it has to do more so with Ohio States history. If they did not have the scandal a few years back this wouldn't be an issue. Let's not assume people are thinking it's because he is black. Your assumption is just as bad as your accusation of racism.

Dude, wake up, it's because he plays for osu, not the color of his skin.
He was cited for driving while impaired in a new car that may be a dealer vehicle in a town & at a school that's had a persistent issue with just this thing.
I'd be looking for dirt if it was Joey Bosa too. Find another example to play the race card. There're plenty out there man.

I just do not know why the OSU booster did not just give him the car in his mom's name.  They really dropped the ball on that and subjected themselves to further scrutiny.
