i read that article and i had to just laugh.


of all people, dave thomas randomly shows up at this woman's house with a giant envelope of cash. disregard the fact that there were several other more high profile players on that 99 team like scoonie or ken johnson, none of whom got visits from dave thomas.

at least this Farb character stood up and rebuked her claim. This one may blow up in her face a bit.

That is unbelievable to spew that kind of crap about a man like Dave Thomas.
Even if for some unknown reason it was true, how can you report something like that as fact in a newspaper based on the comments on that crazed woman?
Bruce Hooley is an idiot.

Looks like Salyers is losing what credibility she had, at least with almost everybody except Hooley. Claiming Dave Thomas showed up with an envelope is a new low.

But will Thomas's family sue her? She's broke, and the publicity would be bad.

Next thing you know Salyers will find somebody's finger in a bowl of chili - oops, somebody beat her to that one!

You gotta love this; on Kathleen Salyers' website she claims that Kim and Dan Roslovic's attorneys, both from major law firms, have notified her attorney (Jeff Lucas, who maintains a small suburban law office) of their intent to file sanctions against him for filing a frivolous lawsuit! http://www.kathleensalyers.com/

Also, she is trying to sell some stuff (an autographed basketball and NIT watch) on ebay to pay for her legal expenses.

After all of this (i. e. lawsuits and NCAA investigation) is said and done; we probably should thank Kathleen, for without her lawsuit:

1) O'Brien wouldn't have been fired.
2) We wouldn't have hired Thad Matta.
3) We wouldn't be getting what could be a top recruiting class in 2006. We are very optimistic that the recruiting classes for future years will be good too.
4) The future of the Ohio State men's basketball program hasn't looked this good since (maybe) the Lucas/Havlicek era.
5) In addition, I believe that we can now be 100% certain that we aren't knowingly violating any NCAA rules.

When Ohio State/Thad Matta wins the National Championship in the 2006/2007 or 2007/2008 season remember to say "thank you Kathleen".

Woman who supported Ohio State player settles with boosters

12/7/2005, 1:30 a.m. ET The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A woman who claims she financially supported a former Ohio State men's basketball player has reached a settlement in a lawsuit that led to an NCAA investigation and the firing of former coach Jim O'Brien, a court official confirmed.
Jack Kullman, administrator for the Franklin County Court of Appeals, confirmed Tuesday that the parties settled this week, The Columbus Dispatch reported Wednesday.
Kathleen Salyers said in the suit that two Ohio State boosters, Dan and Kim Roslovic, reneged on a verbal agreement to pay her $1,000 a month for letting former Buckeyes guard Boban Savovic live with her when he was a student from 1998 to 2002. She was seeking more than $600,000.
Depositions in Salyers' lawsuit revealed O'Brien had given $6,700 to recruit Aleksandar Radojevic in 1998, leading to O'Brien's dismissal last June and Ohio State's decision to keep its men's basketball team from postseason play last season.
Neither party would disclose the terms of the settlement and no further information was available from the court, the newspaper said.
Salyers, who was a baby sitter and house cleaner for the Roslovics, says she spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on Savovic and did papers and classwork for him.
Her lawsuit was dismissed in May by a Franklin County Common Pleas judge who said the alleged oral contract was unenforceable. But a hearing on an appeal was set to begin this week.
The now-divorced Roslovics had denied there was an agreement for Salyers to take in and care for Savovic. He came to the United States from war-torn Yugoslavia and played on Ohio State's 1998-99 Final Four team.
O'Brien is seeking $3.5 million from Ohio State in a breach-of-contract lawsuit, which is set to begin Monday in the Ohio Court of Claims. He says the university improperly fired him before the completion of the NCAA investigation.
Ohio State has conceded to nine NCAA rules violations, including seven in the men's basketball program, although it argues that it shouldn't be held liable for some violations because O'Brien made it impossible for athletic administrators to know about them.
Among the most serious charges, the NCAA said administrators and compliance officials should have known about transgressions by O'Brien and one of his assistants. A hearing on the university's possible penalties from the NCAA is set for Friday.

Remember without Kathleen's lawsuit all the good things that are happening to the Ohio State basketball program (see above) would not be happening.

In addition, the future of the Ohio State basketball program has never looked brighter with the "Thad 5, part 2" this fall and the "Thad 5, part 3" next year. After Ohio State beats Florida for the National Championship tomorrow night don't forget who started the "domino effect" with her lawsuit that made it all possible and remember to say "THANK YOU KATHLEEN".

:oh: :io:

Do we have to give credit to O'brien for bringing in Ivan Harris?
