BwahahahahahaBrandon Hanning, the person in the Rufus costume, said he was not upset with the aftermath.
"It was the whole reason I tried out (to be Rufus) last year," he said. "I knew we were going back to OSU this year, and I wanted to tackle Brutus."
Hanning, 19, is a student at Hocking College. He enrolled at OU last year but dropped out, he said. He added that he still hadn't been informed of his firing, but didn't care.
Ohio coach Frank Solich said he did not know much about the situation.
"Obviously we needed to tackle the guy with the ball, not the mascot," he said.
Nope. Rufus goes to Hocking College.Piney;1775910; said:Wait... you mean the guy wasn't even a freaking student...
Makes me wish for ol stoner bobcat. Back in my day the only way you could be the mascot was if you lived in Lincoln Hall.

that's assault brotha
BigWoof31;1775923; said:Then let the law handle it. And if Brutus was hurt, then let him deal with it legally and privately. It doesn't mean Ohio should have to give back the money.
There hasn't been too many posts about poor behavior from Ohio fans making the trek or Ohio players talking smack or taking cheaps. Just mascot stuff.
They're green, and don't you make light of it.BayBuck;1775926; said:I seriously doubt anyone has raised that as an actual response to the situation, not sure why you keep mentioning it. The one quote you provided was silly internet rhetoric, nothing more. But anyway, welcome to BP, where even the silliest of topics get the multi-page treatment. :tongue2:
