Before the Jim Jordan story hit major headlines CTH received an email.

CTH will not reveal the name however the email does describe motive. Here is the email:

SUBJECT: “Ohio State made NIKE the sole vendor”!!
The only named and quoted source in this garbage Jim Jordan story is Mike DiSabato of Columbus Ohio.
I am well acquainted with Mike back from when I had a sideline writing/covering college wrestling and MMA for some websites.
Mike is a known scumbag. He is in the athletic apparel business and owns Cage Fighter, a semi well known brand of fighting and wrestling gear.
He also was the driving force behind Agon, a short-lived wrestling promotion where everyone involved was cheated out of their money.
Mike has been sued REPEATEDLY for breach of contract by almost everyone he has worked with. It is well documented.
If you check his Twitter account, @thenotoriousmds, you will see he is a wacky left winger supporter of Bernie Sanders who repeatedly retweets Nancy Hogshead-maker, herself a fraud and one of the leading public voices behind advocacy for the current enforcement if Title IX in varsity sports (aka a “quota queen”).
Mike has a personal vendetta against Ohio State and Jim’s brother, Jeff.
He is mad at Ohio State because they made Nike the sole vendor for athletic gear for every sport back in January. Before this Cage Fighter provided the gear for the Wrestling program (which is now a BIG TIME program)
Jeff, Jim’s Brother is the head wrestling coach at Graham high school in St Paris Ohio, one of the 5 most prestigious high school wrestling programs in the country. Jeff and some partners started the apparel line RUDIs which they now use to supply their team gear, no longer doing business with DiSabato and Cage Fighter.
Since ending their relationship with Cage Fighter, DiSabato has been out for blood and is lashing out at Jim to get back at Jeff and Ohio State.
He’s even been attacking 22 year old OSU alum, Olympic and World champ Kyle Snyder, whom I’ve been around since middle school. Kyle, as far as I can tell, is a young man of absolutely impeccable character.
Kyle recently signed a sponsorship deal with RUDIs

Can someone give me cliff notes on Jim Jordan or why I should care about this?

That is horrible news.
The long knives are out. Not implying these two events are related but the long knives are out nonetheless.

These sick pieces of shite will kill anyone to promote their policies

I'm no good at math, but I know enough to see that the odds of this ginned up "scandal" from two decades ago and the untimely death of the presumed next Speaker of the House's nephew both happening on the heels of Jordan embarrassing [[RR]] in live testimony are practically astronomical.
Is I said in the Q thread - I'm cynical to put anything past some of these motherfrickers.

Perkins Coie, yes the dossier Perkins Coie, did some opo research on Jim Jordan and got some former OSU wrestlers to claim the team doctor was sexually abusing them while Jim Jordan as assistant coach stood by.
Jim Jordan denies everything and he has former wrestlers that back him up. Right now it’s just a he said he said situation.
The question is why and why now. The email offers a reason why and the now, he is making a strong run for speaker and making strong head way in the SPYGATE investigation.

Makes sense, if this BS about Jordan being an enabler were true the Swamp would have swallowed him months ago.

Yeah, two decades of absolute silence on this "story"? At least there were murmurs about Penn State. I chalk this story up as the "harrassment" cases that Gloria Alred was parading around last year.

There is nothing wrong with grown men taking showers with students.
Nothing to see here.

OHIO STATE SIGNS 15-YEAR, $252 MILLION DEAL WITH NIKE
And DiSabato already sued and LOST this battle in 2006.
Fighting for, then losing to Ohio State
quote:So parts of the email seem spot on (DiSabato sues everybody), but the timelines doesn’t make sense in regards to losing business 2018, and why be would decide to take it out on Jordan who has no involvement with these business decisions.
In December 2006, he complained to The Columbus Dispatch that the university was exploring a deal with Nike Inc. He said that if Nike signed a contract with the university that included exclusive rights to jerseys, it would destroy more than half of his sales.
It did. Shortly after DiSabato’s comments were published, he was notified that he was being terminated as an OSU licensee. DiSabato then sued the university, claiming the school wrongly terminated its deal because of his outspoken behavior.
So DiSabato’s motives are definitely questionable at best. But I think Jordan is just one of the many targets of his motives, which is why he’s target the university and well-known wrestlers who have no connection to the scandal anyways.

The question is, why is Perkins Coie involved, they are a friggin DC law firm involved in an Ohio lawsuit?Total horse shite.
These clowns dont even hide it any more, they just do the shite in plain site and say try and stop me, and thus far we havent, so they become even more bold.
