Again, you look like a fucking moron for trying to call me out on something I never said.

Once Tressel got the emails, he forwarded to his personal lawyer, asking what to do. Because at that time, it was a Federal Drug Investigation, maybe his lawyer advised him not to do anything. Maybe his personal lawyer got in touch with the FEDS, and they relayed not to go anywhere with this information for fear it could blow up the investigation, and possibly cause harm to the players involved. Thus Tressel sat on the situation, but continuing to email Cisiro to keep tabs on players and situation as much as he could. If this were the situation, his hands could have easily been tied.

Have you been hiding in a cave for the last few days?

thedynasty1998;708717 wrote:Are you on drugs?

Who would have been handcuffed? And how would that have any relevance to Tressel lying to the NCAA?

ytownfootball;708718 wrote:So were you the stenographer during Tressels convos with the feds? You have all this pertinent, factual info.

Not speculate....KNOW?

sherm03;708725 wrote:No...I follow that thinking perfectly fine.

However, as I've said on here before: not reporting the violations in April/June is not what people are upset with Tressel about. People are upset that Tressel signed a document in September saying that he reported any and all issues to the NCAA when he clearly didn't. People are upset that in December when the investigation into the scandal started, Tressel did not mention the emails from April. People are upset that when asked about it, Tressel said that he had just found out about the tattoo scandal in December when we obviously know that is not the case.

That's three lies that we know about for sure. There is no denying those complete and utter fabrications. So why are people who feel that Tressel's lying was wrong getting bitched out on here?

thedynasty1998;708732 wrote:So the Feds forced him into lying to the NCAA. Got it. I'm sure that's exactly how it played out. You are a fucking clown, in all seriousness.

Not speculate....KNOW?

centralbucksfan;708733 wrote:Again, the only time I am disturbed about, is why he didn't come forward in Dec. when it all went down. I don't believe the investigation or Feds came to OSU until Dec. So the investigation was still ongoing. SO if my scenario has any truth to it, that would have been the only time Tressel could have come clean once the Feds were finished, or had come to OSU. The April, June or Sept dates mean nothing to me as I can come up with many reasons why Tress didn't come forward during those times. Now Dec. I can't come up with anything. And thats the major head scratcher.

The emails didn't mention any names, the lawyer just said players.
The only reason the lawyer e-mailed Tressel was because he was pissed that players would trade such things of Ohio State value. He didn't even know it was an NCAA violation. All the lawyer wanted was for Tressel to put the tattoo parlor off limits for players
After the 2nd e-mail Tressel asked the lawyer for some names, no names were given. This lawyer wouldn't know names unless he personally handled the memorabilia. Was the stuff on display? Was the stuff for sale? Did this lawyer get tats at the place?

Read the e-mails.

sherm03;708740 wrote:The really disturbing part to me is that he still never willingly gave up the information. The only reason why he came clean about it at all was because OSU stumbled on the emails in January during a different investigation. That leads me to believe that if they hadn't found it...he still would be keeping this little nugget of a secret. So basically, the guy who puts out that he is clean and always does the right thing was prepared to keep this hidden forever. It really calls his character into question. How many other times was he aware of violations that didn't get found out and he just let it go and never said anything?
