Yeah, but if you count it up by "sell their own stuff" quotes, mine is dwarfed. :paranoid:

For me, the issue is feeling like a guest in my own home. I'm interested in what my Buckeye brethren think of the most significant issues affecting us. Instead, even when I put you on ignore in order to see what other people have to say, it's a needle in a haystack scenario to find any of their posts that aren't about you.

Self-moderation is one of the basic principles on which BP was built. Could we get a little of it in here, please? You're a good poster when you aren't lecturing people and monopolizing conversations. Just leave some space for other conversations to develop.

Sorry, BB73. I'd split this off... but it's the whole thread.

Thanks for the pic. A much needed pick me up after watching Browns Training Camp Daily on STO. Guess who was in attendance today? None other than Coach Jim Tressel. Lloyd Carr was there as well and they had video of the two walking and talking together. No doubt laughing their asses off about Rich Rod.

Made me very sad to see Coach Tressel. Still can't believe that he isn't the coach.

Anyone that says that Ohio State is getting off light after this whole fiasco doesn't know what they are talking about.

Also posted in TP's thread, but thought it may apply here-

Why Pryor left, per the Dispatch-

Two sources told The Dispatch yesterday that the new investigation centered on his relationship with his mentor Ted Sarniak. The NCAA alerted Ohio State that Sarniak, a businessman from Pryor's hometown of Jeannette, Pa., had to scale back his relationship with the quarterback once he enrolled in 2008.
The sources said that the NCAA was checking into a trip Pryor made to the Miami area during spring break in March that Sarniak may have helped arrange, along with other benefits that would be considered rules violations.
When pushed to provide explanations, Pryor instead opted to end his college career, the sources said.
The NFL is said to be privy to those details, though James would not confirm that.

Absolutely.. and that's obviously what people around the country think given that their information source is an evil little network that feels that anything short of SMU-type "death penalty" sanctions is just a slap on the wrist.

The U is getting similar coverage these past couple of days though. Maybe it will start steering away from us for a change.

Does anyone know if this TP situation is new? Or is this basically Mo C situation...his mentor gave him benefits so he is no longer eligible?

tough to say. supposedly OSU investigated Sarniak before TP stepped foot on campus and the NCAA actually ruled on the matter. I would guess that this wouldn't impact LOIC or FTM since OSU did complete a comliance review of the situation. It obviously isnt great news since the NCAA has yet to close the book on the 8/12 hearing. Worst case I would think is vacating every game TP played in.

Sarniak has nothing to do with Pryor's eligibility. He's not a booster, he's a Jeannette businessman who likes good stuff to happen to Jeannette kids. So he was not prevented by NCAA rules from giving gifts to Pryor and his family - much as ESPN would like to imply otherwise.
