Lights Out Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 You forgot to mention, in this very thread, calling Boise State one of the top ten NCAA football programs.You forgot to read, in this very thread, that I said today's most relevant programs, not most relevant all-time. If I had done a list of most relevant college football programs in history, Oregon, VT, TCU, and Florida would have been left off the list as well, and Michigan would be in the top two. But you didn't complain about any of those schools being included/ranked where they are. Why bother when you can just give me ?=========================Putting the Ohio State sweater vest in mothballs isn't going to make anyone forget Tressel's legacy of fraud. I'd be surprised if he gets another college football job for a long, long time. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamikel Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 The thing is, he was under a Federal Gag Order because of the Drug Trafficking and possible Weapons Trafficking. Wait, what? I haven't been following the situation that closely; where did this come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanmaldonado Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Stunning news, but it's really the only thing that makes sense. The school itself didn't have the cans to get rid of Tressel (and it may have looked like they were throwing him under the bus), so he had to bounce. One way or another, dude had to go. It's not the crime, it's the coverup.The thing is, he was under a Federal Gag Order because of the Drug Trafficking and possible Weapons Trafficking. I can't fault him for NOT saying anything to the NCAA or The University because it would have brought far more discipline down on him, from a far higher source The owner of the Tattoo Parlor where Pryor and the others sold their memorabilia was the one under investigation for trafficking, not Tressel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I didn't "flip my f-ing lid" Kev. I pushed your buttons just so I could watch you do what you do. What can I say? It's Sunday night and I was bored. That is literally the definition of trolling.At first it was about Ohio State and the problems they're having. I only started messing with him because he got all self-righteous about Arizona. He has a history of bashing Ohio State every chance he gets. But when people dare to start talking about Arizona he loses it. He shouldn't expect to be able to talk without getting some in return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 In a OH SNAP moment..The Columbus Dispatch (and ESPN) is reporting that Jim Tressel has resigned as Ohio State coach.Wow.Brace yourself folks; willmorris was right about something in a college football thread. Former Ohio State Player: I sold Big Ten Championship Rings for MoneySo much more in here. I think this will be the last year of Tressell as coach of OSUI only disagree because I think he gets fired before the season starts.He didn't get it exactly right but he did say Tressel wouldn't start the season.

It's not the crime, it's the coverup.Especially since there's supposed to be this SI article coming out tomorrow that will likely be reporting further NCAA violations that will pretty much obligate the NCAA to drop a USC-sized hammer on the program (at minimum).If I'm the Big 10, I'm already working on trying to plea against a TV ban for OSU.

thespleenenator Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 This is what needed to happen. Hopefully this will send a message to big time coaches that they aren't invincible (although it probably won't). Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me.

The "lesson" is The Ol' Ballcoach recognizes his team could be a serious BCS/MNC contenders so he's going to make sure he assists Garcia in developing the decision-making skills that are needed for managing life in general...until early January, anyway.
