  1. Andy Geiger- Retired Athletic Director (Merged all relevant threads)

    Is that all he said? Can you tell us more?
  2. Andy Geiger- Retired Athletic Director (Merged all relevant threads)

    This could be used as an opportunity to quell the rumor that Geiger is being forced out, by announcing that he will retire, but on some future date. They could also use this as a platform to blast ESPN. Imagine, LIVE, on ESPN's own air, a scathing counterattack!!! And ESPN would have to...
  3. RB Maurice Clarett (B1G Freshman of the Year, National Champion)

    "speaking fees" :slappy: :slappy: :slappy: Perhaps he could have been a visiting professor too.
  4. BKB's ESPIN like analysis of Mark May

    I just want to add my two cents on the Mark May complexion thing... I think he either looks like "Davey" from that "Davey and Goliath" claymation TV show from the '60's, or I think he looks like he's been embalmed.
  5. Big Boosters Call The Shots

    I think it was stated in the media recently that booster contributions make up about 10% of Ohio State's athletic budget. A far cry from the one-third at Florida. Maybe this is where the media latches on to a larger truth: that the problems faced at Ohio State are systemic of the entire NCAA...
  6. Go LONGHORNS

    Heck, Michigan's gonna score with 4 minutes to go, and give Tejas too much time to respond.
  7. Go LONGHORNS

    Clarity, I don't remember what the old Rose Bowl trophy looked like, but darn near anything would be better than the new one.
  8. Andy Geiger- Retired Athletic Director (Merged all relevant threads)

    Amen, San Clemente... I think someone should look into how Ohio State deals with NCAA compliance, and then compare it to all the other programs. I'd truly like to know if Ohio State is better, the same, or worse than all the other college athletic departments. My bet is that Ohio State...
  9. QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    I think they should get all of the athletic departments together and see which ones do the most to protect against situations like this. They should see who has the best procedures in place, who commits the most resources to it, and who preaches the loudest. Then Ohio State could be properly...
  10. Tressel and A month...(Merged Simialr Threads)

    This was a year for struggling and learning, in preparation for a NC run in 2005. Those mid-season losses were not such a bad thing if you think of them as opportunities to teach discipline, instill drive and desire, and bring forth team leaders. Remember fellas, when the going gets tough...
  11. Outside the Lines

    Here it comes. Jeremy Schaap. Outside the Lines. ESPN. Jeremy Schaap. Fucker. This is their best shot. We'll see now what they've got.
  12. Andy Geiger- Retired Athletic Director (Merged all relevant threads)

    Well, Bluffton, my point is that the problem needs to be fixed, and a symbolic act won't do it. Simply firing a coach or administrator won't fix this problem UNLESS they are at fault. If the problem continues, it can mean real problems for OSU. This is not about firing a coach for losing...
  13. Andy Geiger- Retired Athletic Director (Merged all relevant threads)

    Firing someone will not solve the problem. There will still be booster wanting to rub elbows with the players. That's the problem, not the athletic department. And, I don't agree that bringing in the big money has caused the problem. First, the big money has always been there. Second...
  14. How many TD passes does Zwick throw tonight?

    It is my fondest hope that the Buckeyes can both pass and run effectively, and that they are able to score RUNNING td's. Those have been sorely missed recently.
  15. GASP!! I may have to root for scUM. ( can't believe I said that!) read on....

    Wow. Until I looked at that picture of Bevo, I never realized that Texas' colors come from longhorn fur.
  16. Where is Heather Lyke???

    Having Heather Lykes "fall on the sword" won't fix anything if she's not the problem. All the athletic department can do is preach and educate. They can't live Troy Smith's life for him. I believe that with all the recent problems, Ohio State will emerge as the leading authority on NCAA...
  17. GASP!! I may have to root for scUM. ( can't believe I said that!) read on....

    Cinci, that's that mature, intelligent, rational stance. Too bad it doesn't register for so many Buckeye fans. If Michigan sucks, Ohio State sucks right along with them. That's the flip side of the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry. It's the greatest rivalry only if both teams are feared and...
  18. Cleaning up the program; what would you do?

    I don't think the program is "dirty" so I don't think it needs to be "cleaned up." A dirty program is one that participates in, encourages, knows about and does not discourage, or discovers but does not disclose, NCAA infractions within the program. There is no evidence that OSU has done any...
  19. WR Ted Ginn, Jr. (All B1G, All-American, HC Columbus Aviators)

    Wang Ho, meet Adam Fletcher...Adam...Wang... :)
  20. WR Albert Dukes (official thread)

    Well, that's right AKAK, it does seem obvious, but if it's not stated, some over-zealous prosecutor will try to prosecute a doctor.
