….now

I couldn’t hear you over the sound of Terrelle Pryor sobbing on the sidelines.

you aren’t trying hard enough

“I don’t view it as a bad thing. If we suddenly had zero violations, I would have to ask myself what the coaches were hiding,” said Doug Archie, OSU’s associate athletics director for compliance and camps.

I just love that…it’s not a bad thing…LOL

however that was a horrible article.

OSU committed 26 total violations for the 2007-08 year. Twenty-one of them were level I, 11 were level II and two were either Big Ten or violations of OSU’s policies.

Gotta love the math in that paragraph.

I wonder how they do it? Do they just violate equally across state lines, or do they just assume that every recruit they want in Ohio is going to them and just pool their violations in places where there’s competition like Texas and Pennsylvania?

any violations with respect to Clarett or Pryor (or Troy Smith) were booster violations. I think what the article is referring to are technical violations committed by members of their athletic department. Which is why the story is boring, yes, they self report a lot of “violations”, which are probably better characterized as mistakes, but they are relatively minor and cause no real problems.

Ohio State has a huge athoetic department, this story is really just a crappy article written by a journalsm student on a deadline.

I’m incredulous! These falsified accusations against the instutution of higher learning known as Ohio State are livacious, salacious, scandalous, and meritless! (somebody in the background whispers that OSU admitted to these violations) Well, the glove still didn’t fit! I rest my case your honor.
