Team rankings from rivals:
2002: 5
2003: 41
2004: 9
2005: 12
2006: 12 (Urban was 2nd)
2007: 15 (Urban was 1st)
2008: 4 (Urban was 3rd)
2009: 3 (Urban was 11th)
2010: 25 (Urban was 2nd)
2011: 11
It's obvious how much better Urban is and how people gave Tress more credit as a recruiter than he deserved. He was AWESOME at turning the lesser ranked players into stars, but it is much easier to win when you have better talent, which is what Urban brings to the table.

Uhhh...yeah..no, good for you. I and nearly all Buckeye fans won't be giving two shits about the sanctions that come down, they'll hardly drop the fever pitch of what's happening in Columbus right now.karen lotz;1021510 wrote:Good for you

Even though I'm expecting nothing of significance, why am I not surprised Buckeye fans wouldn't care about sanctions? :rolleyes:ytownfootball;1021520 wrote:Uhhh...yeah..no, good for you.

I care and I would guess that most would care. At the same time though I don't think any new penalties are imposed.WebFire;1021524 wrote:Even though I'm expecting nothing of significance, why am I not surprised Buckeye fans wouldn't care about sanctions? :rolleyes:

I wasn't posting that hoping they they will get hammered. I posted because I saw that the sanctions were going to be announced. I'm happy that you won't give a shit though! Just try not to be so sensitive next time.

Because they will be insignificant, pimple on the ass kind of deals. Anything less than the hammer falling will disappoint those who aren't fans.WebFire;1021524 wrote:Even though I'm expecting nothing of significance, why am I not surprised Buckeye fans wouldn't care about sanctions? :rolleyes:

From other Michigan boards, outside of a few hopefuls, most don't expect much more.ytownfootball;1021553 wrote:You're a little more reasonable and (albeit only slightly) more educated on the situation. When and if the hammer doesn't fall, shit's gonna get funny from a lot of sources.

Let's be honest, UM fans act like the sanctions, in which they're still under probation for, never happened.WebFire;1021524 wrote:Even though I'm expecting nothing of significance, why am I not surprised Buckeye fans wouldn't care about sanctions? :rolleyes:

Made a new thread to discuss the penalties. This thread should be for recruting.

I'd be willing to bet 75% of the UM fanbase couldn't care less about the probation the UM program is on right now, and I'm not saying that's right or wrong. Point is, fanbases are going to downplay their teams transgressions. Didn't expect you to get that worked up over it.WebFire;1021614 wrote:Wow! You don't think UM fans cared?
