Too much.

This [Mark May] has been going on at colleges (including tOSU) for years. Singling these kids out because they're the ones who got caught is incredibly lame.

Lame? BS! Who would you single out since you don't want to single out the ones who did it?

Dave Biddle believes this IS related to TP trying to beat the NFL suspension which I also believe.......all this and his buddy Posey may be done for the rest of the year Ohio State in more hot water and his appeal was smashed

Since the letter detailing the work records of the players was dated in June, the NCAA should have been aware of this issue well in advance of the August meeting. Remember that about a week before that meeting, there were rumors that the NCAA was still investigating something that wasn't in the LOA from March.

Since the issues relating to both the chartity event and the employment during school breaks should have been known by the NCAA several weeks before the August meeting, and FTM and LOIC were NOT in play at that meeting, the fact that the public is just now becoming aware of those issues shouldn't change whether the NCAA would invoke a Failure to Monitor charge.

No, we're passed documentation of compliance on Gene's part. The fact that he's thrown multiple people under the bus in an attempt to save his own ass is the last straw. We need an AD with ACTUAL integrity and honesty.

Archie Griffin would be my choice, but I'm not sure even he'd want to step into this mess tOSU has gotten into.

Nor should we ever ask that of him. Way too much history to put at risk in an event like this... I'd never put AG's rep on the line and make it dependent upon 18-22 year old kids.

maybe I have the time lines mixed up......I did pick up in Smith's comments that this was known or being investigated at the time of the aug 12th hearing...and he eluded to this in particular back then...is that what you are saying?
