    I always wondered why they did not "Self-Impose" last year.. They were having a down year and some of the kids involved were there still..

    I think arrogance in thinking the NCAA wasn't going to punish them with a Bowl Ban lead them to gamble..

    Smith may make his statements but he better be kicking himself for his and Gee's decision to not "Self-Impose".. The season was over anyway.. Might as well got it over with...

            wrong. Do stupid schools implore the POTUS to issue a presidential pardon so that the football team can play in a special game? I didnt think so.

                All is well in the world.. I have been missing you 2....

                Sadly the Bowl Ban has kept your hatred to a minimum (Even though we are upstaging SC with our undefeated season but has zero impact and YO must be getting breaks from the fanatic neighbors).. It has lessened the season for me...

                    The right thing to do would have been to suspend every played involved for their Sugar Bowl game.

                    They didn't do that, so I think they can go without this year.

                        Well, the POTUS owes the state of Oiho for delivering him his reelection. Perhaps they think he'll deliver the Buckeyes a fake championship by executive order in return?

                            I already addressed this angle in my original post. Bad form to use it again.

                                I used it for context for the next sentence. I didn't see your original post. Touchy.

                                    Smith and Gee are taking heat over the Bowl Ban and their "Stupidity and Arrogance" and there was a quote from a player this week who mentioned how Smith came and before any punishment and said "There would be no Bowl Ban"..

                                    Sports Talk radio here made it the topic du jour yesterday and are using this player's quote to stir the topic...

                                                        Not sure what you meaning here.. Either way his decisions has put us where we are now.. With Urban as coach and a team that went undefeated..

                                                        And hopefully many more future great seasons...
