Fickell is saying he isn't dismissing anyone. So lets stop calling for it...

That's bad coaching IMO. Coaching isn't just about football, it's about taking these young boys and turning them into men. If you're going to let these guys get off with only another game suspended (on top of the first five games) that doesn't teach them anything. Sorry but they had a secod chance, and they blew it. Time to cut ties and move on. Time for them to grow up as well.

Fick has nothing to gain at this point by dismissing them either.

Disagree. You had a chance to STAY out of trouble after getting caught the first time, you blew it. Fickell needs to put his foot down kick them off the team and show everyone he's not messing around and is taking this seriously. Because honestly, he hasn't shown me that DRIVE a head coach should have

I think it's time for a No Tolerance policy. First, Herron and Posey, off the team.

Maurice Hall, suspend him for a few games.
any future rule breaking, you are off the team.

If you are tempted to be forgiving with these players because we have a top ten team to protect, forget that noise. we will be fortunate to get 7 and 5 this year. Hurts to say it but it is true.

Maurice Hall hasn't played at Ohio State since 2004.

Some of the same people screeching now for him to dismiss these kids will be the same people screeching about the play-calling and the lack of experienced players on Saturdays too.

Trust the coaches.

I think we just may be beyond trust the coaches at this point.

I am just ready for all of this stuff to find it's way into the past. I am thinking about a couple seasons from now. I will still pull for the Bucks until then, but I am really longing for when all of this stuff is in the rear view mirror. I want to know who our coach is going to be. If it is Coach Fickell, great. If it is someone else, great. If we win a few more games this year with kids who have been repeatedly suspended, fine. If we boot them in the next ten minutes and win a few more games this season, fine.

I just want to FIDO (Fuck It, Drive On)

And you can be POTUS. :eyeroll:

If I felt like I could do a better job than anyone currently running to be in that position, then I would attempt. But since I know I'd be in way over my head, I wouldn't try and I don't go around telling a professional how to do their job.

It seems as if the people who are calling for a total "house cleaning" have the solution to all the recent woes, so why wouldn't they apply for the position once they inevitably come available? I love the university just as much as the next guy, but let's be honest, only a select few in the country can handle these positions. And I highly doubt they post on a message board.
