He will be out of a job soon. He can't survive this.

Urban Myer to Ohio St . He will be the hot name there.

OSU won't fire him, and Tressel won't quit, so he'll still be around next year.  It's always the cover-up that is worse than the infraction.  I'd rather see the NCAA worry about the multi-million dollar slush funds that the bowl games use for themselves, than players trading plaques for tattoos.

The pressure on OSU to fire him will be huge. Unless Tressel quits to save some face. I would be shocked if he survives this.

I'd like to see another death penalty (how many are old enough to remember when it happened) and have it strike OSU. Didn't Tressel get Youngstown St. in trouble also?

Yes he got nailed at Youngstown, so this is not his first rodeo. I would love to see one of the classic "big" programs get the SMU treatment.

NCAA has said they will probably never impose the death peanlty again. They felt the SMU one was a mistake.

^^^ Yes I don't expect it would ever happen again, but SMU was about as dirty as they could come back then. It still doesn't change that I would like to see some of my "favorite" programs get hit with it.

Yes but SMU was doing the same thing as the other schools in its state ala Texas and Texas A&M were doing, the NCAA went after the little school instead of the bigger powers.

^^^ But SMU was waving it in everyone's face. Once they were cited, they continued on the same course of action. You have to at least play the game better than they did.

Really? No one else was doing it that big either? Hell Dickerson's new car was called the Trans A&M that he got before signing with SMU who didnt buy it. All three schools were just as guilty as each other but the NCAA only went after SMU and not the two big Texas schools which makes no sense.

When has the NCAA ever been accused of being a sensible organization?

Saw this one coming a mile away. You can't survive what Tressel was caught doing. Can't lie to the NCAA either like he did. Plus an SI article coming out this week exposes more and puts his program in a worse light. He had to bolt before that SI article comes out this week.

Urban Meyer will be the next OSU coach after this upcoming season. OSU will try to take all the punishment and lumps this year and Urban will try and become a media darling at ESPN, then Urban will jump on that job after this upcoming season. He is the guy Ohio St wants
