Believe what you want Tresselites...those of us who can actually think for themselves know exactly what went down and when it went down and what is still going down with this fraud.

Googled it. Bill McCartney was the founder of Promise Keepers, not Jim Tressel. Not to mention your definition of the Promise Keepers group is wildly inaccurate.

I missed Tressel handling snakes...

Tressel is a good guy. He's not perfect by any means. But in this world, I'd say he's a decent man - and that's pretty good. I saw a news piece on Clarett a few months ago and was glad to see he's moving his life in the right direction. I'm looking forward to seeing this show.

Geiger was an absolute **** when it came to anything like this. People think that Gene Smith is bumbling, but Geiger was as arrogant as can be.

Was Geiger even asked to be interviewed? His reputation is now ruined based off of this documentary. I mean, how many Andy Geiger documentaries are there out there?? He's not even able to defend himself here.


Wow!! It's Jesse Jackson!!!

His reputation was ruined when he was forced to retire. And when he confessed that he knew all kinds of violations were happening.

Geiger was asked if he wanted to be a part of it and declined.

I didn't see that anywhere, but wouldn't surprise me.

And I honestly forget how good Clarett was until I watch his highlights. He was unreal for a freshman running back.

These voice over are awful.

Tim May is loling on twitter on the voiceovers they did of him in the osu press conference scenes

I must say watching this, it's a travesty how Clarett was treated. Now, he's not a saint by any means, but the way he was railroaded is unmatched in another scenario I can ever remember when it comes to a college player. I mean look at high level D-1 sports today and how much trouble there is, and how many chances players get.

Yep. He challenged Geiger about the assistance program issue at the Fiesta bowl and Geiger tool the chance with the car thing to show who is boss.

In the end, Geiger, Smith, Tressel and Clarett all lost...

Even better though, this brings back the memories of the whole challenging the NFL thing. What a circus that was.

I am watching this about an hour behind but man they killed Andy Geiger. Hard to say it was without good reason too.

Pay close attention to with just a few minutes left it is Tressel speaking to a crowd. They really used his comments to slam Geiger.

He was talking about how people around you just want to throw someone away and that is the worst mistake you can make.

I thought is was fair and showed Clarett as real, vulnerable and worthy of being respected for facing demons and coming out on top as a caring and productive human being.
