Naplesbuckeye could go either way
I bet a lot of former Buckeyes are angry as are current Pros and non-OSU pros. I don't believe that someone should be denied a chance to earn a living but I can also see their side that the NFL collective bargaining agreement shouldn't be trivialized by some crybaby ass. All of the guys in the NFL had to wait the three years and many of them never panned out. I think that they both realized what Clarett lost by not staying at OSU. A possible Heisman, All American honors and a first round pick. I think that they are speaking from disappointment but then anger as Clarett and his camp make it seem that anyone can break the rules and act as a rogue individual. In their eyes like many of ours, this is unacceptable.



I was happy to read what Cousineau said as well. No one player is above OSU, and it also helps the longevity of the college game as the ruling stands. He is supporting his feelings by saying that he was happy when the decision came down; I was happy as well. His comments are comming after the Irrizarry thing which also helps to shine all incidents in a collective light. This stupidity and these lessons will be felt by these young men for the rest of their lives. He is reinforcing a believe system that was alive with Woody and engrained in the players minds, just as it is with Tressel and the team today. This has to be the mindset for now and the future.
