Can anyone make a short list of say top five Universities that wouldn't hire JT on the spot if the appropriate opening came to pass?

I can give you a long list of 119 programs that wouldn't hire JT if they had an opening - because he wouldn't coach for any other FBS program.

:wink2:

I got your wink..:slappy:
Reading comprehension time, the question wasn't if he would go coach there but if they wouldn't hire him.

Time for you to quit the sauce for tonight? :drunks:

My reading comprehension is just fine, actually You said hire him, not offer him. I'm not too drunk to know the difference, but I wish I were. :drunks:

No, they were allowed by the NCAA to play in the BCS game because the NCAA decided to push the penalties into the 2011 season.

No, they were allowed to play by Tress and tOSU...after they were declared eligible for the Sugar per the NCAA. The NCAA does not make anybody play, they just say who can't play. So when I said:

"They were allowed by tOSU to play in a BCS game ...because their suspensions were put off until the 2011 season",

you can say that my statement could have added the additional info regarding the NCAA's position first, but it is a "yes, but....", and not a "no, because..."

Once they were eligible for the game per the NCAA, it was up to tOSU to decide whether they in fact did play. A University does not have to play an athlete just because he is eligible per the NCAA. A university can impose its own sanctions in addition to the mandated NCAA sanction. If Tress had decided to sit them all for the bowl to prove some kind of point he wished to make about discipline and responsibility, the NCAA wouldn't have done a thing. The NCAA cannot order your coach to play them. The NCAA is not going to file a demand for specific performance on their behalf demanding/requiring that they play.

Would they (the NCAA) have been [censored]ed in an unofficial way and shafted you on your appeal of the five game suspension yet to be heard? Possibly, seeing how they are vindictive, power mad little [Mark May]s. I think it is eminently reasonable to play them, given everything.

And Deets, there was no intent to be read into the comment. I did not say that to imply that being allowed to play by tOSU was improper. I said it because they were in fact allowed to play - because they were. :box:


And anyway - we both agree with each other on everything about this one. I'm just getting my post count up past the current pathetic 18K. :p

No kidding. He still could have suspended them? Who knew.

I'm about done hearing about how we have to be all concerned about what some misinformed folks with agendas are going to take other people's actions. How refreshing would it be to get the facts, make one's own judgment according to the information available, and discuss that?

No shit? Since that's true, one would think that ESPN could have pointed out in the days leading up to the Sugar Bowl that JT had the option to sit them.

But since ESPN never, not even once, mentioned any possibility that the players could be benched by their coach, how could any Buckeye fan ever have known that was even possible?





I'll be relieved when this thread dies.
