Maybe that's what he was going for ..."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Blog site from mark titus, a former b-ball player from o-lie-o. About 2-3 paragraphs down talks about comparing the football players with b-ball players on campus during his time. Didn't know if I should put this in the big ten thread regarding stipends or this one.

Hmmm. Doug Flutie agrees with me.

From Geo's link, in the comments section. My favorite part is when the writer notes that he``gratuated top 10% of my class''.
Im an proud graduate(1999) of The Ohio State University and I must say I don't agree the NCAA will find anything out. So a few player's got discounts on cars? While, alot of people get discounts on cars. So what.
You should be proud of the University you gratuated from and not be so sarcastic on them. I love The Ohio State University and I would never say anything remotly bad about my University. I hope you will consider doing the same thing.
Us gratuates have to stick together. Alot of other programs look the other way when things like this happen so its not like we are any diffrently then other programs it just so happens we got caught with are pants down so to speak.
I will always be proud of my acomplishments at OSU(gratuated top 10% of my class) and I hope you always will to.Comment

What Mr. "I Graduated Top 10% Of My Class" needs to ask himself is, could Math major Suzy Sophomore walk into the same car dealer and get the same "discount" on a $40,000 car, that Terrelle Pryor got?
My guess is ... mmmmm.. no."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Good grief, whoever wrote that needs to go back to 8th grade grammar school. Maybe 5th grade. I honestly hope that whoever it was learned English as a 2nd language, but probably not.Comment

I was thinking that, too, Jamie! osu must be thrilled that he's such an ardent supporter of the quality of their education. Hilarious.Comment

The 8th grade was best three years of that osu grad's life.“Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.” - Groucho MarxComment

The "everybody does it, but we got caught" defense.
Priceless.
I don't have a college degree, but to my pea-sized brain, wouldn't a "Ten-Percenter" actually hope that his alma-mater was above reproach? Seems to me, that much more pride could be taken in ones university if they could look at them, and know that they pride themselves on how strictly they follow the rules.
I mean, isn't that the message that Saint Jim brought with him from Youngstown State? Pride in the program?
A "Ten-percenter" is reduced to being proud that his university "got caught with their pants down"?"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Latest rumor per MGoBlog is that the SI story on OSU is dropping by the end of the month. It was apparently done by the same guy who brought down the Minnesota Basketball program when they had their academic fraud issues. Apparently the article may detail issues with Tressel that go back to his YSU days.
There were additional rumors as to the details of the article, but as I don't trust people who claim to know specifics, I won't repeat them. If the first rumor is right the story will be here in about 7 days anyway. If the rumors about the story content are right, not only will Tressel never coach again anywhere, but OSU could end up being the biggest NCAA violator since SMU.
There is also the possibility that the issues may not be restricted to the football program either.Comment
