Yea, filming practices are a hell of a lot different than just being good at scouting game film.

Seems as though that is not the case, but if it were how would it be different?
That's like asking me if someone who is being accused of murder had actually done it, would it be okay?

Yeah, no shit it would be wrong then...but OSU did nothing wrong, so these are not similar in any way.

Too busy having press conferences about their players going to jail?

LOL stealing signals...can everyone just stop for a second and think about why you would have signals in the first place?

Well duh! But that wasn't the response of some people. They were insinuating that there was nothing wrong with it and that Oregon was just making excuses.

?????? You are talking about completely different situations. It is ABSOLUTELY illegal to tape the opposition's signals and review the tapes at half time and figure out their signals. It is COMPLETELY legal to watch tapes of past GAMES, not the sidelines, and look for any tendencies. It is COMPLETELY legal to watch the opposition's signals during a game and pick up tendencies.. If a coach doesn't change something about their signals EVERY game he is STUPID.

Do you honestly feel the situations are similar in any way?
What if it were found to be true? Would it be ok?

Seems as though that is not the case, but if it were how would it be
different?
OSU could post their entire playbook on the Jumbotron and scUM still could not beat us.

Sounds to me like a bunch of excuse making and whining. OSU manhandled Oregon. Oregon had no answer for Ohio State's relentless D.

Maybe Oregon should worry about taking care of the in-house problems they have going on and not trying to place blame where there is none.
