The blogger seems to be the only source on this story. The only other thing I've found on-line is an article about the listed arresting officer having charges of cocaine possession filed against him.
Which, assuming that blogger's careful documentation is accurate, says something very sad about the environment he's blogged in and in which we are raising sons and daughters into men and women.
But at least the blogger is still there and doing it. If Kirk Herbstreet had to move to Nashville for being objective about the football program, someone who reported on same in the way that blogger did would probably need to apply for asylum on the International Space Station.

Setting aside M's transgressions, including a captain that allegedly threatened a rape victim with, well, rape....
...Ohio State moves on to San Diego State this week. UFM will be looking for his 14th consecutive victory and to remained undefeated as Head Coach at Ohio State. Some notes heading into Saturday (offensive then defensive):
*Corey Linsley will be back. He played the first 18 plays against Buffalo before getting dinged up. He probably could have played, but at 23-0, no need to risk it. When he came out of the game, the OL's performance dipped. Nice to have him back.
*Interesting rotation at RB against Buffalo. I think they have lots of really good RBs, but they stuck with Jordan Hall almost all game instead of rotating in players. Warren Ball was first in and Ezekiel Elliot was next. Brionte Dunn did not see any time. This week, Rod Smith is back in the fold and I'd expect him to be the first "power" back in the game.
*Dontre Wilson showed his potential, no doubt. They need to integrate him into the offense rather than sending him every 7th play to specifically get him the ball. Also, I think Jalin Marshall will gradually get more time. He was concussed during summer ball and fell behind a bit, but he is still a monster talent.
*Brad Roby will be back. Always nice to get an All-American CB back in the fold. Roby should be a huge boost. Doran Grant had a nice game on Saturdday. Pairing Roby with Grant is really nice. And I still like Reeves -- he just had a couple tough plays that came in short order.
*Gareon Conley is in the 2-deep ahead of Eli Apple. Conley, you all know about -- Apple was a near consensus 5*. I think it's more a comment on Conley's ability.
*Joey Bosa. Awesome. And his little brother may be even better!
*DT was meh. The Schutt injury could prove more costly than I originally thought. It may not manifest itself completely until Wisconsin.
On the recruiting front, as we all know, UFM rescued the 2012 class with a miraculous finish and killed it last year. This year looks to be no different as OSU seems set to, once again, land the top class in the B10 and a top 5 class nationally. With 17 commits, the spots are limited. Here's where I think they stand:
*Marshon Lattimore and Erick Smith are very likely IN. OSU really likes Smith and will hold a spot for him as he goes through the process.
*Raekwon McMillan still seems most likely OSU, but you never know.
*Noah Brown, a 4* WR from NJ, visits this weekend. He is set to decide next week and it's between Rutgers and OSU. Based on how the recruitment has gone, I'd pick OSU if he has a good visit, but it's close.
*Johnnie Dixon, a 4* WR from Florida, is seriously considering OSU. Would love to get him, but I think he stays home and goes to Miami.
*On the OL front, OSU probably wants at least 1 more and would take 2 if it were the right 2. OSU considers Damian Prince the best OL recruit in the country. Right now it's Maryand or OSU ala Stefon Diggs. Chad Mavesty is a JC recruit that would step in a start instantly. With Alabama loaded up with another ridiculous OL class, Mavesty is likely choosing b/t FSU and OSU.
And then there's others that may fill out the class. I'm sure some names I haven't heard of will pop up.
I think Lattimore, Smith and McMillan are in. That's 2 more top 50 players. I think OSU wins the battle vs the home state school for Brown but loses it for Prince. Sadly. And I don't have a sense on Mavesty at all. Alex Bookster is a very good Plan B OL option, but it is again a battle with the home team (Pitt).Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.
