Yes hide away is exactly what I would have him do. His one big ass lie cost OSU more than we may ever know.

I think Tressel screwed up. But it was a relatively minor screw up in my mind. The guy has done a lot of good both for the school, for the student-athletes, an for different charitable causes. Tressel can do whatever he wants in my opinion. He doesn't have to hide.

His punishment was losing his job. He has the right to be at Browns camp if he wants to. As said before, he lives a couple minutes away and is a lifelong fan.

But it wouldn't be surprising if the Sarniak/Pryor stuff was not part of the original investigation. In fact, wasn't the letter than surfaced last week dated in July? So they could have found out about this, but decided to move forward on the current case and treat the "new" stuff as a separate case.

IDK. Like I said, speculation.
I know there's an investigation still ongoing, but I don't think it has anything to do with Pryor and his "mentor" paying he and his mother cash to help them out. The school has said that neither they, or the NCAA, were told about any of this. I honestly think that Pryor is doing all he can to get into the NFL. For one, he looks like a donkey after turning the CFL and UFL so quickly because he thought he was NFL material. So he's doing everything he can to get into the NFL to save face. He has to prove he wasn't eligible to play in the NCAA this year. My worry is, the NFL is going to keep delaying this...and he's going to start barking about all these violations he committed.

That's just a ball park figure. Could be a little more.
