Herbie said that it's just more crap ontop of everything else(but doesn't believe him), brought up the fact that OBrien is suing the school for $3M..
Corso basically said to forget about it and moved on to talking about the game.
Basically they cop'd-out of talking about it.

Why is Entertainment Spin the only media that is talking about MoClit?

Herbie had a chance to take a stand - but skirted around the issue.
Basically ESPN just plays their quote by MoC, reads the statements made by Geiger and JT, and all of the commentators dance around the topic.

I did that 14 years ago and still bitch at myself for not doing it sooner.
Unfortunately I also missed Gameday today. I did think that during the game Davie was showing much more than lukewarm support for JT and OSU.

I give up. This board is too hard to understand.

Davie made numerous comments backing JT and the University... it was good to hear that someone on ESPN has their act together.

davie and his guys were all over it and sounded like a broken record talking only about 19 days of football and then moc, following every moc comment by "remember this is jsut an allegation"

By the end of the broadcast, I was sick of hearing Davie bring it up. I think ESPN had him on a quota.

I wouldn't doubt that they had their guys on a quota, those folks are a hype/spin machine.
On the subject of Herbie skirting the issue, I told ya so!
