Have you ever heard of Troy Smith?" Murray asked.
Smith, Ohio State's starting quarterback in football the past two years, accepted $500 from a team booster a year ago. He was forced to sit out two games but played most of this season with the Buckeyes.

Troy Smith was given money by a booster and not by the coach.  |

The Troy Smith incident is completely different to what Obie did. Lets not forget about Boban and the allegations against Obie and his staff. Obie is guilty of breaking NCAA rules, its that simple.

The fact that that leech even brought that up makes me want to drive down to the court house and kick him repeatedly in the balls.

Based on what I've read, am I the only one that thinks Obie has a chance at winning this lawsuit?

I believe he will win a settlement. Its to bad that in a court of law, sometimes people who are guilty don't get what they deserve. |

No you are not. OSU really lookslike they may have left open some loopholes when they let Him go. Holbrook admiting in the stand that OSU didn't follow what was written in the contract as far as how to properly dismiss him has to be a big blow to OSU's case. |
