Listen to how this sounds. Say it out loud to understand the depths of the lunacy.

A college kid who is going to be a top 5 NFL pick and plays for the number 1 team in the country, took a LOAN and is suspended.

Gtfo

Well, I did say "Winter"....

Looks pretty damn wintery outside in a lot of areas.

 

[TemptressToo]

None bro! He paid the money back!

That's the kicker...HOW did he pay back upwards of $5000 in a summer? He, like most elite football players, would have been in summer training with little time for a full time job.

 

[Sgt Brutus]

so Technically we lost the bye week?

 

[Proud_Okie]

"A family friend I've known since the summer before....."

Yeah, a "family friend"...

 

[tnapucco]

I would say at the beginning of the season during the extremely light OOC schedule.

Which would preclude one to think that this particular nugget wasn't found out about until after the easy OOC.

 

[tabascojet]

urbs fault for sure.....

I thought it was 2k, where did the 5k number come from?

 

[7Samurai13]

You would say? well don't be shy....say it.

I did say it. If Ohio State intentionally waited to report this (which I was not suggesting) then at the beginning of the season when the first five games were Florida Atlantic, Cinci, Indiana, Miami (Oh), and Nebraska seems like a better time than the end of the season of Maryland, Rutgers, #4 Penn State, and #14 Michigan. You want to be playing your best football at the end of the season when the selection committee is putting you under a microscope.

4. The timing of this is suspect to say the least.

Yeah in the middle of the best fucking regular season we’ve have since 2012

I’m not saying what he did isn’t wrong, but to get gyped over a couple grand?!

 

[ellupo]

so Technically we lost the bye week?

I feel like a scUM fan now.

 

[outofyourmind]

Wait
He got 20 of his closest friends and family back and forth to the Rose Bowl with transportation and lodging for $5000.

 

[Boglodyte]

Osu, the legend continues

maybe the NCAA should have looked at urbans ethics class notes a little closer

 

[tnapucco]

I thought it was 2k, where did the 5k number come from?

I haven't seen a dollar amount declared yet. I guess we'll find out with Day's presser later today?

 

[WhiteMamba]

NCAA should be thanking its lucky stars for having the most loyal fans in all of sports. We continue watching when this kind of nonsense happens.

It’s about time for 50-60 teams to break away from NCAA. Don’t let schools schedule games, let the new governing body do that too while we are at it. You play 12 games against the 50-60 teams only, that reside in the new Association.

The old guard is completely broken.

Let’s face it, this season has been a snooze fest. Ohio Stare and Alabama haven’t even been challenged and they are without a doubt two of the best 5 or 6 teams in the country. The games best players aren’t even on the field for the majority of the second half.

Goddamn I want his travel agents deets RIGHT. FUCKING. NOW.

It was 40 not 20. Get your facts straight.

 

[PIBuckeye]

Yeah, a "family friend"...

yea, and it helped his performance on the field so much........

 

[outofyourmind]

It was 40 not 20. Get your facts straight.

The guy is a fucking genius.
