Just my opinion, none of them will, or should return to school next year. It already looks bad on the university and will only look worse if they play. Not to mention if they do actually achieve anything of value next year it would be discounted and cheapened because they are labeled cheaters. I don't want to be in the same class as Auburn. Win or lose, play with clean players.

We've now been called "Tatto U." It's sad and shameful. They knew the rules. I hope that they are benched for the bowl game as well. That being said, they are Buckeyes and after they get their nuts busted should be given all support necessary to be successful. Hopefully they learn from their dumb ass decisions......

Troy shouldn't have been allowed back in 06?

I say Norwell, since Shugarts at right.

I wonder if the staff won't give Shugarts a shot at LT and let Norwell stick at his more natural position of RT... lets Marcus Hall stay at guard as well. Who knows, this just hit, plenty of time to figure it out and the staff will have our best guys out there in their best positions.

Are you fucking kidding me? Cheaters? Now they're cheating?

Where is TPs competitive advantage in selling his gold pants?
Please show me how Mike Adams has gained an edge over his opponents because he was able to sell his gold pants.

They broke rules. They did not "cheat"

my thoughts:

1) these players get suspended for making a profit off of their accomplishments. yet the ncaa makes sure they are eligible for the bowl game so that their profits are not impacted. wow, what a way to make a statement. so essentially the ncaa can make decisions to cover its own interests but will penalize others from doing the same.

2) i realize that these players get a quality education for free, which is absolutely a big deal. but when you bring in millions of dollars for your school and other people (businesses and schools) can profit off of your name but you can't that is just unfair and clear exploitation.

I think we all need to take a meltdown lesson from ShaggyBevo. I've found it's easier to poke fun than tragically collapse.
