No, I mean the SEC that (with a couple of exceptions) is the fucking joke of higher education in America.

And as for where the real dollars are, compare research, fundraising and endowment figures between the Big Ten and SEC. Football is a drop in the bucket. It pays for some non-revenue sports but very little beyond that.

I'd disband the football program before I let Ohio State turn into the majority of SEC schools.
I think we both know that football and academics are barely related, as it applies to this level.

I don't want to become Harvard, Yale or the other Ivy League Schools.

Stanford is the ONLY school I can think of that is a true academic/athletic powerhouse. All the rest are meh.

After taking into account more scholarship reductions and a bowl ban (which includes no B10 Championship Game). I have to say there is ONE positive here....



Our whole season rest on the THE Game at the end of the year.



Who knows what they will be playing for, but one thing is for sure....we will be playing to absolutely DESTROY them (not that we don't every year).

Look, I'm no fan of the ncaa. My point is that whether to attempt to run a clean program and self-report when things come up does not inherently lie in what kind of an organization I think the ncaa is but in what kind of an organization that I want Ohio State to be.

I'm pissed at the bowl ban (neither here nor there about the scholarships). I think we got jobbed, and I think the ncaa is full of shit. I'm just not willing to make the jump from there to saying fuck it, let's go SEC 'cause they win championships and get away with it.

Here's a thought: Don't break the fucking rules, and then there's nothing for you to report or for them to find.

Miami and OSU somehow kept the AD. Really helped OSU.

Wish Ohio State produced Nike products (Oregon). Maybe that would help with any NCAA violations.

If you truly think the NCAA would not have tacked on an additional year to a one-year self-imposed bowl ban, while they did exactly that with scholarships, you're a moron.

Yeah!! I'm not a moron!!.....at least in Mili's eyes........at least not right now.......

We'll just have to agree to disagree. I want Ohio State to be the kind of organization that shits on organizations like the NCAA.

Key witness refused to cooperate w/ NCAA's Ohio State probe. Had he taken part, sanctions could have been far worse. OSU dodged a bullet.

Why are we going to the freaking Gator Bowl? We should tell the NCAA fine, ban us next year, we'll ban ourselves this year as well. Thanks for punishing us even more after we have already punished ourselves over and over again.

That would be extremely bad. We should have self imposed a bowl ban this year, even though they would have given us one next year too. At least it would make them (the NCAA) look more douchy when they let Miami skate.
