After watching the Vid, a couple of things came to mind with body language and what they said....
Posey promised to come back and seemed like he is taking this head on.
Adams didn't have a prepared statement but he said what he wanted to genuinely say.
Boom slouched used a lot of 'I's about how hard this is on HIM.
Pryor seemed like he knew the routine, say your sorry, blah blah blah
Solly is the anomaly that I had a hard time reading but I think he did well and came across as genuinely apologetic.

I pretty much thought the same thing.

I don't think any of the apologies came off as ingenuine, these guys aren't politicians, they got thrown into the pressure cooker and handled it pretty well. Terrelle isn't a great public speaker which is something that I can relate with, it can be difficult to get what you really want to say out sometimes but he did a pretty good job of that imo particularly compared to interviews hes had in the past.

Thomas said this was a "life changing issue" make me think he is gone, however he isn't a house hold name and he will be looking at a second-third day draft, maybe even FA.

Pryor is the odd ball out. I want to see him return but he has plenty of upside to stay AND leave. Not knowing if it will be a full 5 games, or will the scouts look at him as a great "receiver/TE"? This decision will take some time.

Of the five Pryor is the one who would possibly benefit the most from another year. Though there's no doubt as to his raw athletic talent he's yet to prove himself as a QB IMO.

Thomas would have the furthest to go. He's not been able to win a starting role.

May is comparing Green's suspension of the first 5 game of the season to how it's unfair that the 5 tOSU players are getting to play in the Bowl game. Give me a fucking break.

I'm kind of curious how many other schools out there self report violations like this?

And May replied not unless my family was in dire need of money.

And it's obvious May knows the financial situations of all tOSU students families. And wasn't the Green actions found out right before the season? How is that even comparable? I bet most schools wouldn't even admit anything until after the bowl game, not 2 weeks before a freakin BCS game. That's why I have huge respect towards tOSU, doing the right thing.

Sorry man, I just dont see a Mark May Cardinals or Chargers jersey going for much. :biggrin:

Maybe he can pump some money out of the ring he won while not participating in Super Bowl XVII.

So, I think its say to assume:

Herron - Gone
Posey - Back
TP - Back
Solly - Back
Adams - Back

Not sure how that figures into it.

I don't think its the number one factor in his mind at all but from a guy that has talked about wanting to set records and leave a legacy at Ohio State I do believe that he really means that. He knows that if he leaves now he will not be looked upon favorably the by people such as us (Buckeye fans). Reading into some of his comments today he said he wants to prove that he belongs here and make up for his actions(at least thats what I took from his comments).

Not to mention I think if he did file paperwork for the NFL to get an idea for his draft grade that some things came back in that report that are going to make him want to come back. We know and I think he knows that he still has a lot of things to work on to become a better QB ( or at atleast I hope he knows this).
