Bobby D disassociated from program. Not sure if that had already been known, but Smith just answered a question regarding that.

Are you posting from the past? Or do you mean August 12th of 2012?cats gone wild;920758 wrote:By August 12th, how many more things will come up? Im sure this isnt the last press conference.
NCAA ruling now expected to get pushed back past October.

So since Hall is now part of this group will the Buckeyes get to keep the wins?

IMO, I think Gene Smith's tenure as AD is tenuous at best...I look for him to be gone by year end.

Talked with a buddy of mine a few weeks ago whose dad coaches at OSU and he said that Bobby D has always been close to the program, but that the staff noticed some problems several years back and began informally distancing him from the program (not allowing him on the sidelines or at team functions, discouraging players from working for him, etc.). He said the guy always seemed like a sleaze bag and the staff knew it and tried to do something about it.karen lotz;920756 wrote:Bobby D disassociated from program.

They probably had jobs there too but the math worked in their favor

I thought Smith said one of those two were already out due to a medical hardship or hardship of some kind so it didn't change their status.

Three Ohio State Buckeyes (DeVier Posey, Dan Herron, & Marcus Hall) suspended for summer job pay; two suspensions extended (Posey & Herron).

For those who took anything after December of last year, when all this crap first started coming out -- boot them off the team. That means Posey, for sure. It's ridiculous. They obviously don't give a crap about following rules, and they're too stupid to steal without getting caught. Kick them to the curb.

How about you fire the AD, scrap the coaching staff, clean out the whole damn place, and get someone in there who will actually tell kids that Ohio State et al. don't owe them entitlements and illegal benefits, they owe Ohio State for the unbelievable privilege of being a Buckeye.
Stop making excuses. Stop saying let's just be like "everybody else" and fix that damn program. It's embarrassing that a university as awesome as Ohio State can have a program filled with corruption. Get some players who will hold student-athletes (BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE) to some standards and develop some God damn character.
I've said it before but I hope Gee puts the hammer down on the athletic department quickly and the rebuilding process can begin in earnest. If he doesn't, the NCAA should blast this program.
