The 27-year-old Williamson will be sentenced by Franklin County Common Pleas Court Judge Sheryl Munson on June 25. Sentencing options range from possible probation to more than 40 years in prison for the Westerville, Ohio native.

According to The Dispatch, court records say Williamson would give a note to bank tellers around the Columbus area saying he had a gun while demanding in writing money in dominations in $20, $50, and $100 bills. While Williamson didn’t make away from every bank with cash, he did get about $22,000 in total.

tOSU Recruiting Discussion

off-the-wall question. Did Day get tOSU Lear useage as part of his contract? UFM did, guess some was for family (taxable event), but thought he'd have 'approved' useage for recruiting. Just a Sunday musing.

Ryan Day, Ohio State Agree On a New Seven-Year Contract Valued at $12.5 Million Per Year

Ohio State and national champion head coach Ryan Day have agreed in principle to a new seven-year contract with a total annual compensation of $12.5 million.
www.elevenwarriors.com www.elevenwarriors.com

Ohio State agrees to fly Coach by private (not commercial) jet aircraft when Coach is making recruiting visits and for other, mutually-agreed upon, Ohio State business. Coach’s use of such private aircraft for recruiting and other mutually-agreed upon Ohio State business use shall not exceed seventy-five (75) hours per year. As additional compensation, Ohio State agrees to arrange for fifty (50) hours of such jet aircraft use by Coach for his personal use each contract year during the term of this Agreement. Each hour the aircraft is contracted for either business or personal use, including but not limited to, empty “deadhead” legs of the flight, will count toward the corresponding seventy-five (75) hours per year for Ohio State business or the fifty (50) hours per year for personal use (except Ohio State shall only count the “deadhead” hours if Ohio State is charged for such “deadhead” hours). Coach recognizes that the value of such personal use may be treated as taxable compensation. A maximum of ten (10) hours of personal flight time not used in one contract year may be carried over for personal use in the next contract year. For sake of clarity, the maximum accrued flight time Coach will have available for personal use at any one time is sixty (60) hours per contract year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any business use and personal use hours is subject to Ohio State maintaining a contract with the jet aircraft provider and subject to all of the terms and conditions in such contract.

Ravi Bellamkonda, tOSU President

I've been disgusted at some of the things I've read on social media about this appointment. Judging from his Bio, Bellamkonda is better qualified than several of our last few leaders. ( time will tell how he navigates today's political climate ). I only hope that as you said, most of these racist hilljack chucklefucks are people with no connection to OSU.

The chucklefucks won't give a shit if the teams are winning. But I think that this is a good hire. He won't be a sport jock sniffer, but he needs to know that is what sells the brand nationwide. That is not the most important aspect to his job though. Academics need to be raised up across the board. Focus on what brings in revenue and helps make tOSU a better public University. Rename the medical center (my hot take).

I'm not sure how, but the Schott is in prime real estate territory and needs revamped in some manner. Turn it into another Larkins center for students or similar sports (Make it the ice hockey arena for both teams. And during the offseason, it can be a training center. Switching over from an ice rink to a different floor is a pain in the ass.)

And get something akin to a stand alone basketball/volleyball arena (A new St. John Arena). Concerts can go downtown or to the Newport.

If you could change the outcome of one Ohio State football game, which would you choose?

WoodyWorshiper
I'm 63 years old, 53 of them as a die hard Buckeyes fan, and there is one that will haunt me until the day I die.
1974 Michigan State.
It's mind boggling that the teams from 73-75 won zero Natty's. They should have won all three, and this great team was tucked right in the middle. I was 12 years old at the time and cried like a baby the rest of the day after that loss. I still to this day have nightmares about Levi Jackson taking that handoff and breaking through the line and................Fuck it. We all know what happened after that.

Ohio State Women's Ice Hockey (2022, 2026 WCHA Champions, 2022, 2024 National Champions)

ORD_Buckeye said:
Tough loss, but Wiscy was always the odds on favorite this year. They lose all their stars though while we have most coming back including all our Olympians which includes the top overall scorer (Svensson) and top goal scorer (Dunne). We should be the machine next year that Wiscy has been the last two.

It would sit easier but for the way last year’s championship game ended in regulation.
