Either way, I don;t think the player's dealings had much to do with drugs except maybe a dimebag here and there. It seems to me that it had to do with trading stuff that came "easy" to them as well as nothing more than their signature for things that they felt were status symbols, money, tats, car(s). Drug dealers tend to have quite the hobbies. They have to get rid of the money somehow

OSU football players can be very influential and have lots of friends. If Rife could convince a couple guys to deal for him on campus then he becomes more profitable. I've met Rife and know his family and he tends to value his family (I know it's ironic because he was a drug dealer). I just don't think his sole satisfaction was with hanging out with OSU football players. I think he used them to profit off them.

No no, Rife didn't just get his rocks off through memorabilia, he talked HIGH PROFILE IN THE SPOTLIGHT guys into dealing for him. Man, if I was a drug dealer, I would want guys who are under a spotlight

If you were smart you would. I'm not saying Pryor. But maybe other guys who can get into any party on campus, can be convincing and who have friends that do drugs. Drug dealing is still sales.

Where did I say it was startling or even act like it? Just telling you the facts. If you want to attack me for it, go ahead, but you still will be ignoring reality

I don't know what LJ's agenda is. He's denying such obvious things. Says Wexner was the only one keeping Tressel's job for him and then says Wexner alone isn't big enough to have him axed.

That Wexner pulled his support when the NCAA started an official inquiry about the cars. Read the thread instead of asking stupid redundant questions

thedynasty was talking about how he got a full ride to school, and was acting like a know-it-all badass because of it on another thread. I called him out, and he got all defensive.

A badass? I gave an opinion that players didn't need a stipend to survive. And I never got defensive. Why are you completely making up lies? Get a life.

Where has that been stated? Gee put together an advisory committee that said Tressel should resign, Wexner wasn't a part of that committee.

The board asked him to resign, he sent the resignation to Gee and Smith and the advisory panel said "yeah that works"
Just in case you were wondering.

Did they? You are the one that wants facts, so where was the board involved? There were members of the board on the advisory committee, but it wasn't the board of directors.

The advisory committee nor Gee asked him to step down. The Board did. There are your facts

Honestly you may be right, but that's now how I understood it. Again where did you learn the board of trustees asked him to resign?
