If he can match Meyer's first season with that group... I'll be impressed.
If he's worth his paycheck at all they should easily sweep that OOC schedule at a minimum.

A former ESPN W and ESPN columnist is writing a book on fan behavior and mob mentality. Her inspiration? Columbus, Ohio and OSU Fans from Tattoo Gate through Tressel's resignation. It's going to feature other school and their fans (Most notably, FSU), but prepare for her to hit the radio and TV circuit trashing OSU fans for awhile.

I do not choose to discuss it
Classic "who's the biggest, most active fan base that a can troll for maximum attention" move.
While there were some emotions involved in the year or two that shit went down, everyone got over it quickly and certainly no one gives a damn right now.
That's hardly cult behavior in my opinion. If anything, and I'm seriously not trying to be a troll, tbdbitl is being far more cult-y about the firing of the band director than anything the general fan base did regarding the Tressel firing.

Mr. Such and Such
I mean, yeah Columbus is an easy target for a fan piece like that. But, after watching what went down in Happy Valley two years ago, and still is going on, I'd say that's a much better place for source material for such a piece.

Report: ESPN wants Olbermann to stop ripping Goodell
There’s long been a perception in sports media circles that when the NFL tells ESPN to jump, ESPN asks, How high? Whether it’s the cancellation of Playmakers, the shunning of League of Denial or the suspension of Bill Simmons, ESPN seems eager to please the NFL, which provides ESPN with its most popular programming.
So today’s story from the Hollywood Reporter about ESPN’s negotiations with Keith Olbermann will be closely scrutinized within the sports media. According to the report, ESPN has told Olbermann that if his contract is going to be extended, the network wants Olbermann to stop engaging in commentary.
And that request is the result of the fact that Olbermann’s commentaries regularly rip the NFL in general and Commissioner Roger Goodell in particular. Olbermann called for Goodell to lose his job over his handling of the Ray Rice domestic violence case, and Olbermann has regularly been a thorn in Goodell’s side.
The report says that ESPN remains sensitive about its relationship with the NFL, and that multiple sources within ESPN believe that the NFL gave ESPN a weak slate of Monday Night Football games this year as “payback for Simmons and Olbermann.” It seems unlikely that the NFL would cut off its nose to spite its face like that, but some folks at ESPN apparently believe that’s exactly what happened.

Keith Olbermann is leaving ESPN... again
The outspoken television broadcaster will be leaving the sports network later this month, the network confirmed on Wednesday.
His sports news and commentary program, "Olbermann," is shown weekdays on ESPN2, the smaller sister channel of ESPN. It began in 2013.
"We wish Keith nothing but the best and trust that his skill and ability will lead him to another promising endeavor," ESPN said in a statement.
The network called Olbermann's sign-off a "business decision to move in another direction," not the result of a dispute.
That's noteworthy because Olbermann, 56, has been called a "perpetual bridge-burner" in the past.

Yeah, and if you believe this wasn't because of a dispute as stated in the press release, I have a bridge in Florida, and a swamp in Brooklyn to sell you.
