No big name coach takes this job until the shite storm is over. I'd imagine the death of OSU football for many years is forthcoming.

I'm also tickled shitless that the players that were ruled inelgible for the first 4 games of the season had to promise to come back this year so they could play in the Sugar Bowl, and have the bottom fall out from their sorry asses.

Bottom line, for all of you Tressel haters who are in elation right now...this shite happens at every major school.

When you think and brag that your guy isn't doing it...they probably are.

Think about it.

It's a close race with the one concerning Cam Newton where it was determined the player had no idea his father was pimping his big arse all around the country for the highest bidder. Stevie Wonder could see what was occurring in that situation.

How do you know they weren't the ones that "encouraged" him to resign? I doubt he just did it on his own.


It's too late. The Ohio State school administration has put themselves in Tressel's corner from the start, despite all of the known evidence. This entire mess has been botched from an adminstrative level. Starting with letting these guys play in the bowl game, then only suspending Tressel for two games, and so on and so on.

You have no idea how right you are apparently. This is from an SI writer that is having his story posted later today on the website.

I'm told it is likely my SI mag story will be posted at SI.com later today/tonight. Timing of Tress dec. will make sense after you read it


He also tweeted this whenever the story first broke.

Suppose to be a big story about this on SI.com later this evening/night and things will start to make sense. Guess we will see.

nobody is saying that it ain't happening everywhere.

the fact that it happened will get them the violations.

the fact that he blatantly covered it up and lied his arse off cost him the job.

Yeah, the 2010 NCAA rulings were absolutely ridiculous. It really has tainted the game, and they boldly showed the world that "money is king" in the NCAA's eyes.

Before I even read the story, I knew there was going to be an "interim" coach for the entire year. That gives Urban Meyer a year in his "retirement" and take over in 2012. I don't know if they're making it obvious enough.

True. I've always said Meyer would end up at Penn St. Just so happens this one comes open first.

I think if Ohio St. gets USC type sanctions, I think he'd take the OSU job.
