DE Chase Young (Nagurski, Hendricks, Bednarik, Silver Football, NFL DROY, New Orleans Saints)

That Chase Young tweeted about this at all is puzzling. He's had a LOOOONG talk with Day and Smith (at least) by now about what happened.

How can they NOT have told him to keep his mouth shut and the tOSU sort it out in public? Or they somehow approved his tweet?

It's strange to see ANY info is coming from Chase, much less an admission of wrong, because he's got zero to gain.

Seriously, how can they not have stressed to Chase to not say anything?

This quote is key, important points bolded:

Chase had already been at OSU for over a year at the supposed time the load was made (2018). So there could be no inducing or encouraging him to use his services, or the recruitment or solicitation of him, seeing as he had already been there for a year and was already playing.
I'm pretty sure Young said the loan was accepted the summer before his freshman year at OSU.

At the very least his lawyer approved the tweet (and/or drafted the message). I find it unlikely they did so without the knowledge of the compliance team.

The weird thing is why? Why say a word beyond: I'm sorry, I let the team down, my family, etc.... ????

It's like someone let this kid put his toes under the bus. A responsible attorney wouldn't suggest that, nor should representatives of tOSU.

I can't imagine what the strategy is with that tweet.

It sets the tone of the story. Not nearly as many people who aren't OSU fans are jumping up to support Young and rally against the NCAA if you sit quiet and don't have a narrative. Whether there is more to it or people believe it is another thing, but I think it did help his case.

If true......

and also explains why the university would want to get out front on this and self-report.

Like I said though "if true." Lotta ins and outs to this case, and more new shit is bound to come to light, man....uhh sir.

Chase Young, attorney shed light on Ohio State DE's suspension

Tim Nevius, Young's attorney, later confirmed the defensive end's remarks in a Twitter post of his own, in which Nevius criticized the NCAA "punishing athletes to make ends meet."

"Chase took a small loan from a close family friend last year to cover basic life expenses," Nevius wrote. "Toan was repaid months ago and we’re working to restore his eligibility. Unfair and outdated NCAA rules punish athletes for making ends meet while enriching everyone else."
