Slowly?

They're falling from grace faster than Lindsay Lohan and Tila Tequila combined

I'm told it is likely my SI mag story will be posted at SI.com later today/tonight. Timing of Tress dec. will make sense after you read it

I don't mind suspending the team for a season. The infractions, lies, and protection they think they could get away but got busted

I don't know if I'd support giving them the death penalty until I see the full length of everything (if it's even all publicly laid out), but I would definitely eliminate them from Bowl contention and take away scholarships right now.

I'm anxious to read the article.

Not a "U" fan, but OSU probably shouldn't have had that one Title under him. :?

Good riddance! More self-righteous than a TV evangelist...

In my experience, few alumni bases exude as much smugness and self-satisfaction than that of Ohio State. After a run of semi-football prominence over the past decade, Buckeye fans and alums have been insufferable.

Now that it's all said and done, what they have to show for their compromised integrity is 1 questionable championship, 8 tainted BCS games, and an association with Maurice Clarett. Sadly, even with a rampantly corrupt program and coach, the still couldn't match up against the strong SEC teams.

Not a whole lot of new info came out of the SI article. It is pretty interesting that 9 more current players were named in the tattoos for memorabilia scandal, including 4 maybe 5 starters on defense.

Also, Terrelle Pryor has played his last college game. He showed up for a function last night in a brand new Nissan 350 with temporary tags from May 24th, effectively giving the university the middle finger. My guess is once Pryor's career in the NFL flames out, he'll talk to tey and get paid from this. And this is all far from over.

If I had to guess, just from everything that's come out so far, they will vacate last year's wins, have a 4 year bowl ban and lose 5 scholarships or so each year for the next few years. Also the uncertainty that goes along with having an interim head coach is going to kill their recruiting for the next few years. And it all couldn't have happened to a better group of guys.

That reminds me of another big college player's scandal many years back...

Now if only we could find out Tebow clubs baby seals in his free time, I'd be rid of the two most annoying, self-righteous jerks in Football...

Baby seals have not yet found Christ, and so shall feel the wrath of Tebow.

And some free equipment from the equipment room to trade for tattoos and drugs.

Is it possible for this to be downsized so I can have it as my avatar?
