An Ohio State offensive starter said today: "I haven't spoken with Terrelle and I don't care to... It really sucks Coach Tress had to take the fall for a couple idiots' mistakes."

They were talking about the whole situation on WKNR this afternoon and they said if Tressel had one major fault it was "loyalty." Compared it to a father protecting his kids.

BOTH were given special treatment (more than they deserved) by their respective franchises. I never said Lebron was a trouble maker but, like Pryor, he was spoiled ROTTEN by ownership.
There are far better comparisons. And you said turning in Pryor. Far different than giving special treatment to the best player in the NBA, a guy who is worth over a hundred million to your franchise.

How about winning? That's what his fault is to me. A win at all costs mentality.

That's funny because others seem to see the validity in my comparison. You might too if you got your head out of Lebron's ass. Both players were enabled/coddled. Doesn't matter how much they make of their status. It seems like their coddlers have been turning the other cheek their whole lives.

Yeah I think Tress's actions had more to do with the fact that we were National Championship contenders

His loyalty/stupidity was his downfall. He should've thrown that prick Pryor under the bus. What kind of repayment does he get for that loyalty? Loses his job and Pryor is flaunting that he's an asshole by showing up in a car in dealer plates. I'm not saying what Tressel did was right, because it was FAR from it but someone should seriously curbstomp that smug prick Pryor.

TP is done at Ohio State. I would be shocked if he is still around come August.

Fans hate him now and it looks like his teammates are turning on him now too

Hmmm...and now that I think back on it, Pryor made OSU, Michigan and Penn St wait on his "Decision" too. Eerily similar....

Are you kidding me?! I took the ACT after partying the night before (we'd won the conference in football, and I was only a junior), fell asleep halfway through, got a 24, and still got into Ohio State without having to retake to get the 30 I had aimed for. Athletes get in with 17's and 18's all of the time.

I think it should be a team vote. Or at least the seniors should vote on it.

Is he getting dumber by the minute or can Fickell not control the players already? Is he even a part of the team right now?

It's actually getting comical to me. I feel distanced from it because hardly anyone in this city gives a shit about college football and I don't talk about it much with coworkers. But damn I'd be sad if I was in Columbus.

This is a full blown free fall. :(

What an idiot. As exciting as he was to watch I can't wait to watch the Buckeyes without #2 at QB.
