M-Borg vs. THE Flavortown U Thread, Orig. by Buckeye Paul, absconded w/by talent.

[Optimus Prime]

Phew, boy do I feel better, "investigated" by OSU Compliance, Gene Smith, Urban Meyer, Jim Delany and now apparently Talent.

''We talked to Braxton Miller, the whole thing, and there's nothing there,'' Gene Smith said.

[lineygoblue]

Fortunately for you, M has no star players.

FTFY

If having this kind of scrutiny comes from having "star" players, may we never have another one.

[SeattleLionsFan]

I dont know why anyone would think an OSU Buckeye would sell memorabilia.

[Optimus Prime]

Personally, I will wait for the Feds to weigh in on the latest "situation".

"Ohio State acknowledged Wednesday that they have looked into the sale of memorabilia signed by Buckeyes quarterback Braxton Miller, and found no wrongdoing. The mini-probe came in the wake of the Heisman-winning Texas A&M quarterback being linked to a handful of autograph brokers, some of whom alleged that Manziel received payment in exchange for his signature."

[Optimus Prime]

Will get CFB stuff out this week or early next.

OK good, looking at 6-8 participants from Team OP this season.

[Optimus Prime]

Meyer clears some schollie space.

Buckeyes dismiss backup DB Najee Murray from team

[Rob F]

clearly, Murray was not a member of Meyer's circle of trust, version 2.1.

[Pasadena Blue]

the "violation of team rules" was that Murray was occupying a roster/scolly spot for a higher rated future recruit .... this is just Meyer brining Saban rules to the B1G ... he's a smart cookie.

[SeattleLionsFan]

I guess if violating team rules gets you booted, and Carlos Hyde did not get booted, then it follows that trying to hit a girl at 2am in a bar is not a violation of team rules?

[WM Wolverine]

It's a sliding scale based upon how much potential contribution you can provide.

[Rocky Bleier]

Simple math:

torn acl + lack of potential = "the boot"

[iam416]

UFM already owns you guys. LOL.

[lineygoblue]

Not really.

The great Urban Myth is only 1-1 versus Michigan.

Hardly ownage, even by the most optimistic ohioan standards

In November he'll be 1-2, with a chance to make it 1-3 a week later.

And the website "fireurbanmeyer.com" pops up less than 24 hours later ...

... mortal lock ...

[iam416]

No, he owns you guys.

[lineygoblue]

Nah.. he doesn't own the M fans here.

We're just waiting for the next shoe to drop with him.

Just like the cat whose tail got too close to the fan ... it won't be long now ....
