    I agree with you Hurricane! I see all them heading to the NFL Draft, especially since they have to sit for the first 5 games! Now the Hurricanes have a chance to beat the OSU this year, since that will be one of the game they are sitting for.

    Definitely not something lost on me, my friend. It'll be a great chance for Al Golden to get off on the right foot.

    It's so true. I mean where does this shit end? If somebody sees pryor walking on campus and they offer him a ride does that make him in violation of rules?

    I mean how about let the kids make their money. It's ridiculous how much money a big team will make of these kids and all they get out of it is a education they'll never use. So if football is a business want can't the players be businessmen ...

    Do you understand how much a college education costs? They are going to some of the best schools in the country for free.

    They need to earn that scholarship on the football field and make their money later.

    I don't mind them trading autographs/pictures/etc for tattoos, weed, coke, blowjobs, etc. but them selling their jerseys and rings is bullshit.

    Anyone drafting Pryor should be sitting him for at least one season. Whichever team picks up Donovan McNabb should be where Pryor lands.

    I think he needs to sit at least one season before he steps in to play. Whatever team picks up McNabb is likely to start him so that's his best bet.

    As for McNabb's skill set specifically: My biggest worry would be Pryor going to the run too often instead of passing so McNabb might be a good option to learn from in that respect, so long as Pryor ignores anything McNabb has to say about clock management, conditioning and ovdrtime regulations.

    C'mon, Tressel isn't a dirty coach.

    Does OSU have issues???...you better believe it.

    It's not Tressel's fault he has a few guys on the team that don't play by the rules. Tressel can't babysit these morons 24/7.

    If you don't like OSU, no problem, but don't attack Tressel for being dirty.

    I can remember a 2-10-1 record against Michigan in John Cooper's tenure.

    Tressel....9-1 against Big Blue.

    I would say 4 Div 1-AA Championships at YSU is pretty good. YSU's program was in the toilet when Tressel took over. I believe Tressel's first year he only had 2 wins, after that, the program was on the rise big time.

    I'm not a Buckeye fan or an apologist for Tressel, but he's a damn good coach. He's a little too conservative in play calling for my taste, but is a consistant winner.

    Every program in the NCAA has issues, the Buckeyes are no exception.

    If you blame Tressel for all of the Buckeye's problems, you have a myopic POV. Most teams in the NCAA would kill for Tressel's services.

    Tressel will probably retire in a couple of years. There has been talk of Urban Meyer as his replacement. You hate Tressel now, wait till Meyer ruins the OSU program.

    Michigan fan, that explains your hate for Tressel.

    You shouldn't throw stones...Richie Rich and Lloyd Carr couldn't hold a candle to Jim Tressel's class.

    I met Carr once on Campus, an arrogant SOB!!!

    I've been around Tressel a few times and he's a quiet, unassuming, nice guy!

    I'm not a fan of either team, I just speak the truth about NCAA football.

    I have no opinion on this, but this doesn't have anything to do with what he said.

    He didn't say Tressel doesn't win.

    He's a boderline troll!

    He hasn't proven anything that Tressel is a dirty coach, as he claims. It isn't Tressel's fault 5 morons decide to sell their jewelry and get tats.

    I brought up Tressel's record on the field, you can't support his "dirty vest" claim cause it isn't true.

    He's a Michigan fan that hates the Buckeyes.

    He also has totally ignored Michigan's issues under Rich Rod!!!

    Fact- Rich Rod and is staff was found gulity by the NCAA violating rules of going over the set amount of hours of practice.

    Fact- Rich Rod had too many coaches on his team, he used a number of Grad Assistants as coaches and was found guilty by the NCAA

    Fact- Players have accused Rich Rod, and his staff of being the most degrading coaching staff. Threating them, and cursing constantly in their face. I wasn't a Carr fan, but at least he ran a very clean program.

    The 3 examples above Richie Rich has 100% control...it's his fault.

    The poster shouldn't throw stones!!!
