IMHO that's a bigger loss for the Buckeyes than most will realize.

It’s not

This has been discussed for months. I’ve heard about it way before the CFP

Externally? Whatever

Internally? They are well prepared

Agreed. Time to promote Hartline.

I figured one more year then he'd go. Mission accomplished though!

He probably wanted to beat Michigan but the natty is just as good.

It's better.

Hopefully Chip K. does not follow Knowles's example of being photographed in an "Ohio State Sucks" hat one day after resigning. That was most unseemly.

Chip Kelly is getting 6M a year from Vegas

Good for him

[asujbl]

The @Raiders told candidates during their search they were making a serious commitment with an infusion of cash from the new owners. Here it is—Chip Kelly was lured to Vegas with a deal averaging $6 million per year, per sources.

Kelly is now the NFL's highest-paid coordinator.

I guess thats what Im grasping.

It's quite funny to watch you guys talk in circles.

After the National Title The Game doesn't matter. It's a scrimmage. "We won the natty, who cares about The Game!!"

Less than 2 weeks later here we are, back to your true north, which is *quite obviously* obsessing over Michigan. Now we have this imaginary hammer that you've been calling to drop on Michigan for over a year now, for a "rampant cheating scandal". OSU fans are like pigs in mud - screw the national title, they need to someone explain getting abused by Michigan for 4 straight years.

This whole sign stealing saga is such a joke. And let me make this clear - Michigan is stupid for breaking the rule with scouting in person. There is no need for that.

If anyone actually cared about sign stealing, the NCAA would've adopted helmet technology YEARS ago. But coaches have voted that down. Hmmm, I wonder what would motivate a coach to vote against helmet technology?

Again, just to reiterate - Michigan is stupid for this Stallions stuff. And now they will have to deal with likely a fine, scholarship reductions, etc. You don't need to be scouting people in person to get their signs when you have all 22 film, etc. But to act like this is some huge scandal is seriously softer than your coach. You know - the guy who was receiving death threats from your fan base because he can't beat Michigan. That game you guys don't care about.

Michigan Scandal Defense Timeline:

Bet?
Nothingburger.
Everyone does it.
It's not that bad.
Not even gonna get punished.
We need an extension.
Fight!



Keep thinking it's nothing. 6 Level 1 violations. Biggest scandal in NCAA history.

From what I understand these violations are alleged, not finalized. Correct?

Also, only a fragment of Michigan's response has been leaked, as far as I know - again, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Of course Michigan is going to fight this - it is only logical that they would do so. The allegations as made are quite serious, if also unprecedented in severity for the offenses alleged.

The process has not played itself out yet.

I know not everyone will choose to see it this way, but the equation of mounting a spirited defense with a tacit admission of guilt is dumb.

The Yahoo article from last week was made from appx 10-15% of the NCAA report and Michigan rebuttal. The vast majority was still either private or not released

As I said last week, the process (at max) will end in June/July area. There are some 90 day windows now between what the NCAA does then Michigan's reply so on and so forth before the final verdict.

Then after that will be the gambling stuff. I'm still wondering which part Mike Hart had a hand in. Was he whistleblower or was he gambling? Just odd that RB coach with the success he had just disappears a year after a title. Is he hiding? Is he protecting others? Did he make a deal with the school to lay low? It's all scandalous!

The Hart speculation can be dismissed right now - he is named in the report. The whistleblower is explicitly mentioned as unnamed and thus is likely either Gattis or Dudek (both disgruntled ex-employees, so take that for what it's worth).

I know this might harsh your vibe, but facts are facts.

And the bolded is why I can't take you serious. This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read on Blowout - and there has been plenty of really stupid ish.

Let me help you, since you seem to have no handle on what you are talking about here. Tennessee just had 18 Level 1 violations. Simple math (albeit not simple for Buckeyes) leads you to Tennessee having 3x as many Level 1 violations. And remind me the punishment Tennessee faced again?

And this is 1 freaking example that I lazily pulled.

Calling this the biggest scandal in NCAA history is nothing but you losers trying to explain 4 years of getting your arses kicked.

BE MORE SOFT!!!

[hairysasquatch]

In the interest of providing a firmer basis for the discussion - here is a news report from 6 days ago:

https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sp...n/78005595007/

I saw nothing in here about any gambling allegations so I'm kind of wondering where that came from in all honesty.

How many Michigan sports are under investigation currently? Seems like a culture of scumbaggery going on up there. Not surprised. Then add on the gambling stuff.


Losers? Soft? I prefer 'NATIONAL CHAMPIONS'
