1. You're job is only as safe as your last victory, although a victory over Michigan might get you a one year extension.
2. I love and admire Jim Tressel, but he's as human as the next coach.
3. In my time the only coach that seemed fully embrace the concept of recruiting only good kids and turning down troublemakers was Fred Taylor and you saw what the public did to him.

And we must remember that this is the same team that recruited Lil' Romeo.

1957 was the slush fund scandal that ended the PCC (Washington, Cal, UCLA, and USC were all paying their players through bogus educational funds). 1959 was for USC providing transportation for two student-athletes to come to Los Angeles. 1982 was a ticket-selling scandal where assistant coach Marv Goux and players would sell comp tickets for profit. There was also some bogus speech courses and students who were admitted under a program that wasn't supposed to be used for athletes. 1986 was for too many complimentary tickets distributed, a weight-lifting program that didn't conform with NCAA schedules, and various minor recruiting violations. And 2001 was the tutor writing papers for athletes.

on oj
i know for a staff multiple staffs passed on this kid due to eligibility issues and his history. that being said know that obie didnt want lebron for one year. lebron wanted to come to columbus for one year. obie said two min. obie shyed away from lebron but realized if he could get a two year deal out of lbj what it would do-get him off the hot seat... lebron had similar issues as oj. that being said to some level tressel but some effort into lebron-more than obie at least.
it is what it is and honestly at this point i dont know what it is-so to say. time will tell. at this point i think its important that this board remeber the moc saga. this is america, innocent until proven guilty.

I notice that you conveniently ignored the fact that I said there was an article on cnnsi.com that contained virtually everything (and more, arguably) that the espn.com article stated. FYI, those were the only two sports websites I visited yesterday, yet I hardly think that they were the only ones that had scathing indictments of the USC athletic department. But go ahead and continue deflecting--that seems to be what USC does best, after all.
