Looks like Posey got paid for 50 hours that he didnt work....according to the press release after the tattoo stuff had already come out

I dont like that

When players already suspended for taking impermissible benefits continue taking them you lack institutional control. Sorry, beloved school.

I am trying to digest this. I would say this seems serious for Ohio State.

Hindsight is so easy. It looks now like it would have been better to have suspended those guys (Pryor, Posey, and Herron) for the bowl game, lose to Arkansas, and have them all declare for the NFL in January.

this would have been awesome

If that's true (the timing after tat gate especially) and he was aware he was getting paid for hours he knows that he didn't work...buh-bye. End of story.

Somewhere at this very moment, George Dorhmann is giving himself a stranger with a glass of merlot.

I think the list of possible coaches for next year has suddenly shrank. Who would want to come into this situation?

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

I disagree. If you discover it and turn them over to the NCAA, you've done everything you can do.

EDIT - in regards to the LOIC tweets.

 

[buxfan4life]

Being brutally honest here, Gene Smith and the AD need to be hit with a LOIC. Obviously, to me, this Athletic Department and its Compliance Office are turning a blind eye to things that have been going on in the football program for some time now. This weighs heavy on me as I thought that OSU was above all of this, but it is now apparant that they aren't. This should cost Gene his job, and probably the rest of the football coaching staff as well as it seems to be a deep rooted probelm.

Ugh, my stomach is in knots now.

If that's the case, boot him. That's just incredibly stupid on so many levels.

 

[Flocka]

OSU should just stop giving press conferences and give press releases. It's just laughable now. I'm sure when they say this is everything and the last of it they are telling the truth. For the third time.

Getting paid for hours you don't work takes place all the time for athletes from D3 to BCS schools. I've seen it and lived it. Most of the time it happens in on campus jobs.

That said, the part I have trouble with is that these guys were already in so much trouble and continued to do it. That's just ignorant. You've got to lay low at that point.

If that is true...then Posey should be gone. Where's the press release?

 

[buckeyboy]

I'm really not looking forward to the NCAA ruling. It's going to be ugly.

Anyone involved with the football program must go sorry ..from the Bottom to the Top..to pretend this was a rogue booster and a couple of kids is hard for me to believe no one knew this was going on..especially when the Booster had been involved with the program for years

There is a guy at work that is a USC fan. He tell stories of players who had jobs of snow removal at the stadium.
