Tressel has a history of recruiting known thugs. It may come back to bite him this time.
Terrelle Pryor should be fined just for using a girls’ spelling in his name.
He’s also the most overrated QB in the Top 25.
Call me a cynic. Nothing will be made out of this. This is Ohio State after all.
Ohio State ping.
I agree with you.
Typical yahoo Load of Shit
I give WTVN a lot of credit for running the story. Channel 4, too. Not a peep, however, at the Dispatch web site.
Could this cost Jim Tressel his job at Ohio State?
Highly unlikely. Tressel is worshiped here, and Ohio State almost always gets its way, no matter how it affects anyone or anything else.
College sports are a big business. The NCAA loves hussein. Yup - thugs, more thugs and rapists in college ball.
Bull Crap! Ohio State harms as much as it contributes??? You must be on something....name any other Ohio team that is a consistent winner and source of huge revenue and pride. The Indians???LOL The Browns...even worse. The Bungles? Tressel is a man of pure class...what “thugs” has he recruited??/ and don’t say Clarett...that was Cooper.
Recent recruit Chris (The Fondler) Carter says hello. (Tressel probably recruited him because he has such good hands . . .)
Revenue? Yes, businesses ride their coat tails, but OSU football's $100 million in annual revenue is kept on campus, while our taxes that support said campus go up every year, as does tuition.
Ask Columbus police and Fire about the "contributions" of OSU students, especially on weekends.
As for recruiting thugs, I give you Christopher Carter, Louis Irizzary, Ira Guilford, Santonio Holmes among others. And Clarett IS Tressel's baby, as Tressel became coach in January, 2001 and Clarett signed in February, 2002.
Yeah, I guess it doesn't matter that Yahoo broke the Reggie Bush/USC story in 2006, does it? After all, OSU football is sacred and untouchable... /s
Too bad the coach couldn’t get his players to sell his goofy wardrobe of white shirts and vests.
The NCAA is a joke.
Indeed, this is why I think Bruce Pearl may be gone as Tennessee men's basketball coach after the current season ends.
Tressel has a history of recruiting known thugs. It may come back to bite him this time.
LOL. Sure I'm a little biased but this is nonsense.
P.S. Ohio State, including the Ohio State Medical Center, is one of the biggest employers in Columbus and is one of the biggest research institutions in the world.
Worrying about kids selling memorabilia in exchange for tattoos warrants serious consequences like suspension for almost half a season, but shopping yourself around in the SEC to the highest bidder through a family intermediary nets you a one day suspension (Scam Newton).
If you want the real dirt, investigate the SEC...
