Maybe they mean the coach lying when the investigation started.

I mean, that was literally the violation as I understood things. If Tressel doesn't do that, I'm pretty sure the NCAA just suspends five guys for 2-3 games and moves on (Tressel found out before the 2010 season). A true cover-up was worse than the crime scenario. In the current case, the underlying offense was orders of magnitude greater and the cover-up involved more people, went higher up the ladder, went on longer, and had far more on-field consequences. And that's not even counting keeping a coach active after you knows he's hacking computers and social media accounts to get nudes of young female athletes. Maybe others at OSU covered up too, but that's not my memory of it.

Roman Wilson is not looking great either, getting shown up by an undrafted rookie in camp right now.

He sat out pretty much all of last year with an injury, but it was an open secret that he was kept on IR because he was struggling to learn the playbook.

I don't know who said it, but somebody on Al Gore's internet described Roman Wilson as someone you could tell strictly on looks alone that knew the conversion rate of copper wire to sudafed... *chef's kiss*

That's what we all are hoping for/thinking of I think.

Our coach lied, about lesser stuff, the school jumped right in and cooperated. We saw the results.

This coach lied, about a lot more shit, and the school doubled down.

Punishment damn well better be using the same basic formula

The cover up and lying went all the way up to the miserable jock-sniffing university President. Other than SMU, I've never seen that before.

December, 2010, it was reported that Ohio State had players receiving impermissible benefits - magic tattoos that make them faster, stronger, and better at football.
May, 2011, Tressel was fired. I believe the players involved in the magic tattoos were also given official punishments by this time.
By October or November, 2011, official punishments for the university were figured out. Everything was done by December, 2011.

In about October, 2023, we learned about the cheaters' cheating.
It's now 22 months later.

I get that Ohio State cooperated, making the process quicker. But this is crazy. Show them the biggest hammer you have. And then hit them with a bigger hammer.
They were cheating from 2021 through 2023. 3 years. Let's say a 1-year investigation is normal. The second year of this investigation should also be added to the amount of time they've been cheating. 4 years of cheating and/or stonewalling = 4-8 years of hammers. And those hammers need to be soon.
