Craig Roh's father speaks out.
Thankfully, the post he made at the premium board on Scout...he also posted on the free board there.

"As I watched 35 schools recruit my son, I would put Michigan at the top of the integrity scale when it came to recruiting."
"I was tired of hearing about all the rules. It was like dealing with the IRS."
RR couldn't have written a better script. GO BLUE!!!

Gee, somehow I don't think that this is one of the mysterious "four parents" that Rosenberg claims he interviewed. How embarrasing for the Free Press.

Good material for next season's recruiting

that was one of the greatest pieces of writing i've ever read, and i've read dante's divine comedy!
(note: i've read the words, "dante's divine comedy")

good to see quotes that rosenberg can't twist.

He'd find a way.

He may now be my favorite alum of Grand Valley.

GVSU alum? No shit? Nice.

Family Values!

Will Valenti read on on-air? Will Forde comment on it? Will Pete Fiutak post it in its entirety on CFN?

Of course not. And that's the media we are dealing with these days. The backlash is 2 days too late, and no one in Topeka or Spokane will ever know anything but what ESPN blasted within the 12 hours after Rosenberg/Snyder lied in order to make a name for themselves.

I can just see Rosenberg's next article shaping up:
Roh's father confirmed the allegations, stating that his son learned of the workouts "that were required," which would cause him to be "pushed to the limits." Little did he know just how far he'd be pushed. Dealing with Rodriguez was as unpleasant as "dealing with the IRS." If Roh wanted to go to class during the summer, instead of working out, "it was on his dime," forcing Roh to pinch pennies to survive. Rodriguez made it clear that "nobody . . . had . . . free time." The halcyon days of Lloyd Carr, in which football players were the true embodiment of Joe College, balancing rigorous academic pursuit with wholesome sporting pleasure, were over forever.

You should work for the Freep. A+ work, son, that will get you on the front page!
September 1st, 2009 at 9:59 PM ^
that is some nice investigative work!!! +100000000000000
September 1st, 2009 at 8:25 PM ^
Quite simply that was the best article I have read the whole time this has been going on. Put that on the front cover of the Free Press.
September 1st, 2009 at 8:43 PM ^
We should pony up some cash and pay for some of this stuff in a full page ad in the Freep and other local papers... not sure of the cost but man it would be sweet...
September 1st, 2009 at 8:52 PM ^
I really don't want them getting any of my money.
All for it if we pay with counterfeit bills.
