Let's not do a victory lap just yet. For all we know, JT could resign at the pc. Not saying it's lokely just that this isn't over until the press conference is finished AND yahoo fires off whatever they might have in the other barrel.

David Filo was born in Wisconsin.

Ohio State just beat the Badgers like David Duke at a Black Panther Partee.

Coincidence? I think not.

1-7-07 Tressel: Saint or snake?

And here is an interesting one...



A new look at Newton, dad
Dec 11, 2010 - Maybe the actions of Cam Newton's father should be seen in a different light. Why can't the family profit too?
...
Exactly why should Cam Newton, who is worth millions to a university, whose jersey is being sold all over the school website, who fills stadiums and boosts television ratings, be asked to play football for just room, board and tuition ? an amount far below his market value?
...
Rule? What rule?
And yet we demand that Cecil Newton respect these guys and those rules?
...
Would he have been a better father if he just let coaches, athletic directors, universities, commissioners, television networks, bowl directors and so on and so on profit off his son in exchange for a deal that was well below his value?
Was he wrong to demand more from the establishment that had plenty to give? Was he misguided to look at the charade and say not this time, not with my son?
Is letting Cam play for ?free? in the face of rampant profiteering really better than asking for some of the action?
It would?ve been easier, sure. Would?ve it been right? If your son was an actor, would you let him star in a Disney movie for free because Disney said so?
...
Why, because one dad did not respect the NCAA, its wobbly rule book and situational ethics? Why, for considering it all a sham and asking for a share?

I am curious. You have asked several questions in this thread - are they asked because you truly want information or you have some negative assumptions based on this Yahoo report?

JT has always handled things this way...talking to players first because that is the wisest way to handle this kind of adversity. They are told not to comment so the media would not have a field day by asking additional questions that could be misled and hurt the team even more.

Have you find one incident that JT has been untrustworthy?

:oh:

I get that, but if the message passed down was there was nothing to worry about, why would they be told to not comment?

Be aware that Buckeye Nate Oliver is at a funeral today... a lot of the chatter is directed toward him.

The Sporting News ran a story (intentionally not linked) based on a Pryor tweet that they took as a reaction to the Yahoo story - but looked more like it was directed toward Oliver's situation.

It's pathetic that the Sporting News has lower standards for its sources than our humble little message board.

Ahhh, understood. I'll hang back then. And let the good folks at BP be my inside sources.

A Co-worker told me to go to JJ Huddle for decent information, but he seems like a little bit of an idiot, so I'll stay away from there.

Unless you're itching for a '14 year old slapfight about high school sports' I'd steer clear of there.

Can't believe this crap. Hopefully that anonmous source won't be after tonight. I can say I do have a pretty bad vibe about everything I've heard but at the same time I really can't see Tressel getting fired bur resigning maybe... Or possibly even stepping down for a season but I still see the most likely event being Tressel has his job intact.

On another note how the hell does Cam Newton and Auburn get away with basicially blatant cheating and they win a heisman trophey and a national title yet the hammer is coming down on Ohio State for selling their own memorbilia seems pretty stupid...
