cats, your posting is truly pathetic. Pure disdain for anything not SEC. Can't you be somewhat objective lol. Just go back to SEC Rant on TD where you belong.

Also for those that think I am backing the OSU players I am not, I stated they are at least being punished while others aren't! I just don't get the NCAA at all, I think we can all agree on that!
Didn't Bloom's situation come down to the fact that in order to be a professional skier he would have to take endorsement monies?

Possibly on Bloom, but if that is part of that profession how does that impact his play in another sport? Because he would be in a commercial, advertisement, or wear certain gear? Hell, ever watch the Big Ten Network? There are current athletes in commercials all the time, matter of fact for any game advertised the players are shown.
Cats you are truely funny!!

I'm guessing that the difference between the two is that Bloom endorsed products and appeared in ads that paid him to do so.
The current athletes do not get paid for promotional stuff for games. (I'm guessing this is the basis in the NCAA's eyes)

I know it is just doesn't make sense as do the NCAA rulings! It's all good. I am as passionate of fan as anyone and I love Ohio State, I just think its such a joke how some things go one way and some another!

And this situation might not be a done deal yet. OSU has a dirty-thug program. Im waiting to find out down the road that TP got paid to come to OSU. It sure did take a loooong time for him to commit, even after signing day.
LSU runs alot cleaner program than what OSU runs even with the recent stuff.
SMH. Yeah that makes TOTAL sense. OSU paid Pryor to come to OSU, which is why he had to pawn off his ring and other shit for some cash.

Wasnt OSU's place kicker this year or a few years ago formerly a professional soccer player?

I am more disappointed in what they sold. The championship rings? What did it really mean to you? I will never believe anything out of Pryor's mouth again, he is not serious.

Be interesting to see if we ever find out why the NCAA came down so heavy handed.

Yall should see the amount of traffic Pryor's facebook page is getting. It is split down the middle. Some blasting him while others are in support.

Somebody should make an espn 30/30 spoof of the "Block O" guys and title it "A Fall from Grace". Remember how they were the biggest thing in OSU recruiting history? Remember how this close group was going to bring a championship or two? As a group, and for the most part as individuals, they underachieved in about every way. Each year we waited for them to step their game up to elite status, but they didn't.
Good luck in the future boys. Just know that The Ohio State University cared more for you than you cared for it.

Coach Tressel has to feel like a guy who's just been told his 14 year old daughter is knocked up. He treated Pryor like his own kid, the way he protected and defended him, and TP stuck it right in his ass. You would've thought JT would have learned after the MoC situtation, but he's got too big of a heart...screw me once, shame on you-screw me twice, shame on me.

For as much as you talk about how religious and bullshit that you are, you really are a tool. Stop acting like the SEC, LSU, and you are better than everyone. Besides, everyone knows the SEC is the dirtiest conference in football, just look at the oversigning issue.cats gone wild;611857 wrote:Who was right and who was wrong when this topic started?

All these guys had to do was ask for $180,000 to sign with a college. They wouldn't be suspended or punished at all, and then they wouldn't have had to sell their shit to get some cash. Only problem is, they would all play in the SEC.
