Ironic…considering UoM just suspended letter grades for incoming freshmen and went to a pass/fail standard because college is hard or anxiety or some bs combo of the two. Seems like lowering standards and coddling to me, but I didn’t get a degree from that school so I must be wrong and misinformed.

Reggie 0.0 Germany who then went on to earn a 3.5 the rest of his time at Ohio State.

For those that don't remember Reggie:

Google AI: Former Ohio State wide receiver Reggie Germany famously posted a 0.0 GPA during the 2000fall quarter, causing him to miss the Outback Bowl. He later admitted he stopped attending classes to focus entirely on the NFL draft out of youthful immaturity, though he eventually returned and graduated with a sociology degree in 2015.

Background and Impact

• • The Incident: At the end of the 2000 regular season, Germany was declared academically ineligible for the upcoming bowl game against South Carolina after earning a 0.0 term GPA.
  • The Aftermath: Germany acknowledged that he completely neglected his coursework because he viewed college merely as a pit stop for a professional football career.
  • Professional Career: Despite the rough finish to his college academic term, he was drafted in the 7th round of the 2001 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, playing briefly in the league.
  • Later Life: Germany returned to The Ohio State University through a degree-completion program to earn his bachelor's degree in 2015. He later transitioned into business as a franchise owner of Crumbl Cookie locations and local athletic trainer.

Former OSU player finding success with cookie company

“And welcome to Crumbl!” Reggie Germany shouts as customers walk into his Crumbl Cookies location. He suits up to make sure his customers are taken care of.

Germany is the franchise owner of the Crumbl in Centerville, the first one to open in the greater Dayton area. And now, he’s opening even more locations across the state.

To beat Doom, all that’s needed is a subtle spell that prevents anyone from referring to themself in the third person. His head would explode.

So they went and got LeBron AND Brown?

Professional sports has become pure shit. Basically like everything else.

Jamir Lee says Ohio State, Georgia and Miami are recruiting him the hardest and he plans to visit all 3 this season.
Says he loves the way LJ coaches, said he has the best method. One of those kids where you ignore the ranking, elite talent.

If there is a big GA or AL defensive lineman out there, Miguel Patrick is all over them.
Visited us in June.

I knew the Miguel Patrick hire would eventually start paying off. Coaching HS in GA and winning state titles, to coaching in AL and also playing CFB there as well. He is well known in those 2 states

Just sayin': Hayden did worse at Colorado (as a Jr & Sr) than he did at Ohio State (as a Fr & Soph). Hopefully he can put up some better numbers at Memphis.

Anyone capable of giving the Springboks a challenge next year, @Steve19, or will it be three in a row?

Sources: Josh Kushner, Bob Iger to buy Lakers for $12.5B​

The Los Angeles Lakers are being sold to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger for $12.5 billion, a record-breaking price, multiple sources told ESPN.

The businessmen were involved in the expansion process in Las Vegas, but in a stunning turn, they pivoted to make an aggressive offer to buy the Lakers from Mark Walter, who purchased a controlling interest in the team from the Buss family last year for a then-record franchise valuation of approximately $10 billion.

Just sayin': $12.5 Billion......

Yes, it's an official ncaa D1 sport. It's considered co-ed though, so there's only one set of points to get.

Yeah, almost everything you would imagine has an NCAA Championship. The exceptions include 2 sports that are dominated by tOSU.

Artistic (formerly Synchronized) Swimming, which of course tOSU has won 34 times.

And Pistol, which the Buckeyes have won for the last 6 seasons, part of 11 overall co-ed and 8 women’s titles.

So there are a bunch of championships that haven’t been included in the Director’s Cup.
