Who Knows . . .

Feel as if I am talking to myself a lot . . . .

Another person that is sticking in my craw is one Jim Tressel, the Ohio State football coach. You know the dude that I am talking about, or beginning to talk about. See no Evil, Speak no Evil, Hear no Evil. That guy.

I read and hear a lot these days about SEC football and the term corruption interlaced. For starters it would be conversation about Auburn and the talk going on there. You know, money for services. Also read and hear a lot about SEC football players in trouble with the law, guns, drugs and anything else one would put on the list.

Brought me back to other conferences and their management of college football. In this case of course the Ohio State. Auburn has been a big distraction for the problems going on with OS and others in the Big Something Conference. Never believe any different, the media wants so much for schools above the Mason and Dixon to once again take over college football.

So how does the Big Something Conference regain its once highly regarded place in college football? Starters . . . . allow certain schools and coaches to dance through the tulips unnoticed. Allow their best football team to play in maybe . . . . the Sugar Bowl. Knowing full well that their coach and players are going to repent and make things right . . . . next year.

Copied a site or two, worth the read. See if you feel the way I do about favoritism . . . NCAA has not ruled yet on OS, wonder why it is taking this long . . . . Maybe Richt needs to either do the same things that JT has gotten away with, or . . . . . become more enlightened and shoot the NCAA a bird, much like OS is doing now. JT never got a slap on the wrist after Youngstown State. Appears that Red Vest is going to show the NCAA how it is done again.

Buc, you need not worry about talking to yourself. In looking around schools in he BCS what we have here in Athens with our Ad is a program that is taking the correct course.

Much conversation has taken place about CMR and does he have the right stuff to win a NC.

We know he has the stuff to recruit and run in todays terms a clean program. I don't blame him for the AJ jersey mess. AJ needed to see that coming. Yes the NCAA is a group of dumbos running a fire drill,however you don't sell your stuff while still in school.

We stand a far better chance winning a NC with Mack than we ever did DE IMO.

With each passing day with what has been taking place here in Athens over the winter and spring.

CMR and staff do have the skills and players to turn the program around this season.

I like were we are this March 27 better than last year by a whole bunch ! Go Dawgs

Buc may talk to himself in other venues, but not here. I watch with great interest how OSU handles their systemic cheating problem. I suspect they will make it all go away somehow though the NCAA is not a big fan of being lied to or deceived. OSU should have to forfeit all their games last year.

kentdaddy, I hope you are right on the NCAA not liking fibbers.

When the NFL had its recent display of one upmanship, made me sick to my stomach. The "press" was all over the Arkansas quarterback, not just during the interview, practically the whole session. I did not hear a peep about Ohio State and the mess they have caused "college football". Which is the bigger deal, a kid smoking a joint or the total corruption that exists and has existed in the last two college football teams that Tressel has coached? Both smell.

I notice that money is always at the root of the Tressel problems. He however does not seem to have a problem "scratching" up a quarter of a million bucks for a fine. Show me the withdrawal slip where he actually withdraws that money and pays it directly to the NCAA. Holding my breath on that one, not . . . .

Since when is a coach allowed to set his own suspension. Tressel is making Lane Kiffin look like an amateur at the cheating game. Who would have thought. Bruce Pearl was fired for much less than Tressel has done, and in my opinion will continue to do. Makes for a better win/loss record. Tressel starts with a two game suspension, suggested by him, that tells me all I need to know about his damn character. Later really steps up to the plate with a five game suspension. Will it get worse?

In case some have forgotten some of the details, the site below goes a bit deeper.

I am glad that Richt has not been caught up in this kind of controversy. Yes he is a character coach. Now I want to see the "football coach" side of him again. I witnessed it when he was at FSU, he now has the perfect chance to return to what he does best. Coach Bowden did well when Richt took care of the offensive side of the ball. Richt has said that McGarity put him back on the football path . . . . I say great, Richt continue, don't let the incoming jewels keep you from using your "God Given Abilities". We are what we are, no more, no less.

Go Dawgs! coach'em up!
