Buckeye Man and Buck-I-Guy??

The one where he gets other people to give him money that he hands over so he gets all the pub?

How different is that from Neutron Man?

I said it made me dislike him less because I get the feeling from the amounts and the self promotion that it isn't really all about the university. That is a far cry from saying I like the guy.

Buck-i-guy, otoh, doesn't even bother to use his self generated notoriety for anything other than self fulfillment so he can still eabod

Now I am drawing on my memory but I believe that he owned his own business and gave quite a bit of money to The Ohio State University marching band. He did not go to playgrounds and ask kids for money to have their picture taken with him or anything like that. I will admit that he did draw quite a bit of attention to himself with the way he looked but he was a successful businessman.

Yes. He owned several Ponderosa steakhouse franchises I believe and donated out of his own pocket.

I get it, sort of. He's on TV. People love people on TV. I'm sure most Buckeye fans only know that and instantly become enamored. Or their kids want to see a guy they view as a mascot/face on Saturdays. They don't know better.

But can we stop? Too many stories about this guy being a self-serving asshole of the worst order. It's beyond disgusting. If there's other opinions I'm missing, glad to hear them, but screw this guy.
