WOW!! But not unexpected. Now he can go to USC.

He should have done what Carroll did and leave town when he knew the NCAA was riding in to lay some justice down. Then, like Carroll, he could have just stated he had no idea what was coming and so on... But, it stayed, lied, and now his reputation is far worse.

wonder if this was the right job Bellotti was talking about to leave ESPN for? He flirted with them before.

I think it'd be a good fit.

I dont think USC would touch Sweater Vest with a 10 foot pole right now though. Not that they would be bad fits, just with each dealing with their own trouble they would be under and even bigger microscrope and take a lot of hits to their reputation.

saw this comment on ESPN.. not entirely true as he didnt MAKE the kids come back but I didnt think of it this way.

Jim Tressel resigns, but he made the players return for another college season instead of entering the NFL draft. Those kids could have been drafted or had a chance. Their stock will not be as high next year. No respect.

Get these soon to be out of print classics at dramatically reduced rates!

Now there's reports that Pryor has had up to 10 different cars in his time at Ohio St.

I heard 5, but what's the real difference.

And another thing.... students on athletic scholarships are required to notify the AD's office about every car they register to park on campus. As such, the AD and university President were also aware of a lot of the stuff involving Pryor. Why aren't they stepping down? Answer, Pryor was making the school money. The coach is always the fall guy.

Good news for Michigan. Tressel will land on his feet.

 

[RR7]

If they don't get AT LEAST the same penalty USC got, I'll be pissed. Should be worse, since they have a head coach lying about it, which isn't what happened with USC.

 

[THE HCP]

What was the tie in to the Tattoo shop? I heard a couple dozens kids are involved?

 

[THE HCP]

NEVERMIND!

Heard this on ESPN last night.

"Lying/withholding from the NCAA is worse than the actual violation"

Retarded.

Pryor apparently showed up to a team meeting last night in a new Nissan 350z with temporary plates dated 5/24/11.

The quarterback likely didn't help matters Monday night when he showed up to a team meeting at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center in a Nissan 350z with, yep, temporary dealer tags dated May 24.

I couldn't believe it, either.

Check out Pryor's new ride here. A throng of reporters was on hand to document the meeting -- as well as Pryor and his wheels.

WBNS-TV Columbus reports that Pryor drove a different car -- a 2009 Dodge Challenger with dealer license plates -- from late March through mid-April.

tOSU is going down, and they're going to go down hard.

Apparently they don't teach common sense at tOSU.

 

[maxiep]

So, Oregon is retroactively named 2010 Rose Bowl Champion?

Why is it that the Ducks always seem to play the dirty team of the year in a bowl game?

not much is going to be "right" about the tOSU job after they get hammered by the NCAA

STOMP

Somewhere, GO is thinking the Buckeyes shortchanged him.
