    OL Jamarco Jones (Official Thread)

    I don't love when they flip...but kid has to do what's best for him...However, I think it's lame to hold an OSU scholly this late in the game and then flip. No backup plan for us. Disrespectful to the school you flip from.

    RB Ezekiel Elliott (All B1G, All-American, National Champion, Pro Bowl, All Pro, New England Patriots)

    Unfortunately I think this is the writing on the wall right now. A reaffirmation would not be big news in Missouri. The mere fact that he's making an announcement on NLOID can only be viewed as unfavorable for our chances of him becoming a Buckeye.

    Yahoo, Tattoos, and tOSU (1-year bowl ban, 82 scholly limit for 3 years)

    Yea, that is true, but I meant it in the sense of...we already had these guys on our roster. We didn't go out an pay players to come to OSU. Had noone got a free tattoo these guys would have still been suiting up. The school didn't pay them, didn't arrange for a booster to pay them, and these...

    Yahoo, Tattoos, and tOSU (1-year bowl ban, 82 scholly limit for 3 years)

    After having read the emails and about 18 thousand pages of internet posts on subject, it seems like when Tressel found out about this in April he tried to discipline his players and straighten them out inside the program. He had a clear duty to report this and didn't. Honestly, I think coaches...

    Game Thread BCS Championship Game, tOSU vs. Florida - Jan 8th

    Worst god damn performance in the Tressel era. Pathetic.

    Former Alabama Head Coach Mike Shula (official thread)

    Personally, I think their problems are attributable to a couple things... 1) High coaching turnover 2) High pressure environment for winning Its hard to say much about them when we couldn't lure a top name coach during our last search. Tressel may have been the only one offered, but I...

    Florida or scUM

    OK, I could handle Herbie being his usual diplomatic self and just chalk it up to being professional...but he seriously should NOT be campaigning for Michigan. He's one of the one's keeping this ridiculous rematch talk alive. Herbie, for the love of god, STFU!!!

    Mark Snyder (Texas A&M Defensive Coordinator)

    This reminds me of how "Jim Tressel is the only one we offered" quotes kept popping up in stories out of OSU during our last coaching search. It is possible that Holliday was never officially offered the job but I'd say it is more likely that he was unofficially offered and both he and the...

    Jim Bollman (Stay calm and run Dave)

    I had suspected that there may have been something like this going on when Geiger announced the uncermonious dumping of Derek Morris as a member of the recruiting class. The way that was handled back then should have let us know that the kid would have meant NCAA sanctions if he had enrolled.

    ABC/ESPN losing part of BCS??

    Since Ohio is a red state we are likely to get good press from Fox's "fair and balanced" sports coverage....I say bring 'em in.

    2004 Heisman Trophy

    There have been several assaults on Archie's achievements...I think its just a matter of time before it happens and this year might be the year. It could have very easily happened in the past with Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson, and even our own MoC (if he wasn't an idiot) likely could have done...

    Hollywood, out of ideas

    Absolutely true. I'm a huge fan of HBO series...there isn't really a one of them that is bad. There are some I like better than others obviously, but all of them have great writing and acting talent. Getting the FCC out of the way, in my mind, gives the writers a bit more latitude in making...

    Robert Smith on Mike & Mike

    The thing about all these OSU players coming out to say "I was never offered improper benefits" is that it doesn't necessarily prove or even suggest that MoC wasn't offered or accepted them. My reasoning is that a standup guy like Robert Smith, Craig Krenzel, or Mike Doss would never go seeking...

    ESPNtheMag Editor is on now....

    If the NCAA comes out and issues a report that says "we investigated, MoC is full of shit, there will be no further inquiries into anything this retarded ingrate says" then we'll be in the clear. I wish there was some way we could definitively prove the allegations false such that we could...
