"Get In The Cut!"

Ohio State doesn't want to see the NCAA but has no choice!

Remember when you were a kid and you got into trouble while you were at the store with your folks and they would say, "wait until I get you home!" However, you still had several stores to go to before you got home. So you'd be on your best behavior for the rest of the day hoping that they'd forget about the whipping they had promised you earlier in the day.

You figured that if I did everything right and was helpful with the groceries they'd give me a pass. Well that's what the Ohio State Buckeyes were thinking on Friday when they tried to get out in front of the NCAA by imposing their own sanctions.

In response to NCAA violations committed by football players who traded autographs and memorabilia for cash and tattoos and by a coach who covered it up, Ohio State issued its official response on Friday. Athletic director Gene Smith hoped it would keep the NCAA pulling out the extension cord or the tree branch and giving them a whipping for the ages. The measures taken by the school included vacating all the Buckeyes' wins from last season, a year in which Ohio State captured a record-tying sixth straight Big Ten title and won an unprecedented seventh straight game over Michigan.

I'm not sure that's going to be enough to keep the heat off. I mean… they acted a fool in that store by running and knocking things over without regard. I my opinion this is worse than USC because the head coach has admitted to and has been removed from his position because of his knowledge of the situation. Now I don't agree with the rules etc but at least Pete Carroll didn't admit that he knew about the foolishness that was going on at USC.

He also quit as he saw the transmission starting to slip and the wheels beginning to come off. In this case, the Buckeyes got caught driving the get away car with all of the evidence in the trunk and the gun still smoking. This one requires no detective work at all! What's crazy to me is that the Ohio State administration is acting like pulling some wins off of the table and promoting Luke Fickle is going to make it right with the NCAA.

Not a chance! They won't be happy until they get to the white meat on this one. For those that don't understand that term, they've got to break the skin in order to be satisfied. I say they lose at least 10 scholarships a year for the next 3 to 4 years and get hit with a post-season bowl ban as well. For laughs they should have to play Michigan at the Big House until they get off of probation!

I tell you what! Boys in Columbus aren't going to be getting tattoo's for a few years either. You'd better get it before you show up for camp and everybody's getting a bus pass too! Car’s will be parked at the football complex and you’ll have to have a family emergency to get in it.

The team is going to look like their pledging the frat until this thing is over. Everyone walking or jogging to class, wearing the same clothes, saying the same thing and checking in with the assistant coaches throughout the day! "Good evening big brother, oh so smooth, oh so cool, scarlet and grey, leader of the Big Ten and can't wait for another win Sir!!!"

Yep, they'll be towing the line in Columbus for the near future. I just hope they can sit down when it's all said and done because sometimes the bruh's get out of hand with the wood(paddle) when you‘re in the cut. If you know what I mean?

Holla At Ya Boy!
