I read that, and I've read Smith's interview in the link below, dated Nov 21, 2011 - Supplemental Case Summary contains a PDF file that includes a lengthy interview between NCAA staff and Gene Smith on October 14th on the OSU campus.

http://www.osu.edu/news/ncaadocs/

tOSU got nailed with the bowl ban because of the Bobby DeGeronimo stuff, which was Failure to Monitor a booster than had known compliance issues in the past. That, along with the repeat violator status, is what did it. The blame for those things falls on Gene Smith and on Doug Archie, and they should both pay the price by losing their jobs. Having the bowl ban affect the 2012 season, instead of 2011, is the clincher for Gene Smith's status.

The short story regarding Bobby D was that it was one area where JT actually was being proactive and the athletic department staff undermined all that (IMHO).

I agree, it's stupid, but it's not like the '11 Seniors are the only violators. That it happened during an ongoing investigation doesn't help matters. Rules are rules. Plain and simple.

Stop it.

Major rules were broken, we are being punished for them. Accept it and move on. This really isn't as big a deal as everybody is making it out to be. Sucks for next year's Seniors, but sometimes, you have to pay for other people's fuckups. That's the world we live in. I'm sure you're outraged for the USC kids that are paying for Reggie Bush and Todd McNair as well...

This pretty much sums up my reaction of today's news:

On a lighter note, if you saw the 2nd to last episode of BMS this season you'll see Alex Moran make a joke of the NCAA (not that it already wasn't).

I am not sure Urban would do this, but considering how Schollies are actually only valid for one year, I wonder if there may be some kids who are informed that their scholarship won't be renewed.

Not really articulating that all that well - what I mean to say is - there are ways, are there not, to signing 25 kids, and still reducing your scholarships, no? Another way might be - if you know Taylor Graham is transferring, you just don't fill his spot. Or... if you have some running back who's not thrilled with the depth chart and bails, ya don't fill the scholarship but it doesn't mean you can't offer the 25 to prospective incoming recruits, right?

Did any of that make sense (I'm not asking you, Bucky!)

Fuck no, it didn't. You < Sammy Sosa.

Also, prepaid cell phones for all players and coaches, so numbers and whereabouts can't be tracked. And any booster should use cash, never a check. And wear gloves when giving the $100 handshakes, so no fingerprints are on the money.

And can the University do something legally, similar to the BS that Penn State invokes, in order to not be treated as a state institution and be thus be exempt from FOIA requests?

Ohio State sucks at cheating. :tongue2:
