Re: Tressel Out at OSU
Originally posted by jnutt View Postnot really. this is all about money. money for Ohio State and therefore money for the NCAA. They could have come down on him hard when this all came out but they needed the cash cow of Ohio State in the picture. They don't care or like the Utah's and Boise State's of the world. Texas, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame are among the top if not THEE top programs in football. If they are doing well, more money for the NCAA. Boise State being in the Top 5 is great for fans but the NCAA hates it because they don't get the money they would with an Ohio State. If Ohio State had a loss or two more on there season then the NCAA would have come down harder. Kinda ironic the NCAA used them to make money off this, don't ya think?UNI isn't exactly splitting atoms in terms of academics. -run&blade

Re: Tressel Out at OSU
people have called me retarded for this, but this cheating by tOSU doesnt really bother me. its comical how much money that NCAA football brings in but the players arent allowed to enjoy it a little bit.
if from the beginning the system had been set up as being a system truly focuses on "student-athletes" i would feel differently, but that thought is loooong gone so i simply enjoy college athletics knowing that most of the programs bend or break the rules a little.

Remember, NCAA has nothing to do the the bowls."I think they're very good," Farley said of the preseason top 25 Hawkeyes. "But so are we."

Re: Tressel Out at OSU
Idk how they couldnt. It's their teams, their stadiums (kinda) their "championship", their TV network deals...somewhere along the lines they get a cut of the $$. Whether it comes from the schools, networks or the Bowl committees I don't know, but I'm sure it doesn't just "appear"

How OSU does impacts the B1G Ten and Ohio State, but not "the NCAA". No matter the situation, the NCAA never acts quickly. Investigations and their version of "due process" takes time. There is little reason to believe, at this time, that they sat on anything to benefit anyone. If anything, the NCAA has made clear this week that there are no sacred cows in college football.
