No. Inflammatory remarks. Hey, fat [censored], go [censored] your mother! [censored] like that. Stuff one would say if they were trying to provoke another.
and they received a vacation if they used words like fat.mooktarr;1578746; said:Give me a break, Herbstreit hasn't said anything that hasn't been said, implied or posted in here over the last 2 -3 years.
jimotis4heisman;1578610; said:slant against? maybe its true, maybe its the reality. maybe everyone has their panties in such a wad around here they cant see the reality. whens the last time ohio state beat a team that was equal in talent? 2002? certainly not in the past 3 or more years, no way, i wont even entertain that discussion. maybe its time to pull of the scarlet glasses and take a look at reality.
mnc? multinational corporation? or do you mean a national championship? if so with a laughable loss to purdue and the usc game and prior showings and... not gonna happen.

Magua;1578821; said:I think you're taking this "fat" thing a lil too far. If these players can't tolerate being called "fat" than they have no business playing for The Ohio State University. You think Bollman is screaming at them during 2-a-days using compliments?
I'm not saying any of this makes Herbie calling them fat right. But if that is the worst thing they have to hear right now than life must sure be good for them. Anyone can call me anything they want if I am getting a full football scholarship to play for the Buckeyes as a 19-22 year old. These kids are getting the opportunity to make millions in the NFL while getting a free, good education. I doubt any of them will cry over someone calling them fat.
But, like I said, it doesn't make Herbie calling them fat right. I just think some of you are getting your panties in an overreactive bunch here. There's a lot more wrong in this world than an analyst calling a handful of athletes fat and lazy.

BuckeyeFan 52;1578917; said:Jesus Christ guys, it was unprofessional, unclassy, and uncalled for. But it's done and over with now, no one is crying over it, no one is losing their cool over it, I don't think the University, nor the football program, nor the coaching staff even gives a [censored] about it.
It's over with, Herbstreit will still co-host College Gameday this Saturday, he'll still have his radio show in Columbus, and he'll still be allowed in his home in Upper Arlington, just like the football team is still going to dress for the game this Saturday, and the coaching staff is still going to prepare the team to play New Mexico State.
What's done is done, it's time to get over it and move on with life.
matcar;1578926; said:Most of what was said is true. You don't like it...I get that. I agreed that the fat/lazy bit is hyperbole, but the rest is a mighty fair assessment.
BUCKYLE;1578943; said:I think the bit about Pryor's lack of progression is highly suspect. More of a product of unrealistic expectations than reality.
His whole little rant was hyperbole, wich makes it not fair at all.
