Are you really that gullible or what? Everything else was shown to be complete BS...much to the chagrin of a "wanting" bastards like your fan base! LOL! Do you forget the "Fraud 5" that quickly? Obviously! Your school's sh!+ DOES, in fact, stink. The tat issue was complete BS....so was everything else. OSU will continue to smoke you fools like cheap cigars for the foreseeable future!
Arrogance does not make a great program. That is evident by scUM's 1/2 NC in the last 64 years!

This is what a classy response is suppose to look like!

This whole argument is pretty stupid on both sides. Michigan lost, it sucks as every fan would have liked to have won. Our chances at winning a B1G title were decimated when Nebraska beat Iowa. No matter who won or lost Michigan is probably still in Capital One Bowl. Nice season by Ohio and congrats to you guys. I can care less what Tressell did to earn post season ban and think think NCAA rules are pretty stupid that he broke. I think he should be celebrated for his on-field accomplishments. Look forward to next year with a different outcome in Ann Arbor

Lots of historical examples of good men who make bad moral choices. Tress donated over $1million to the Youngstown St football program after he left for tOSU, plus got them a big payday game in Columbus. Tressell practically adopted a never-gonna-see-the-field walk-on who broke his neck in a practice. Bought workout machines for the kid from his own pocket. Made sure the kid had a role as long as he wanted. Tress bashers here prove their ignorance of why Buck fans generally love the guy. Tress bashers are all the f-ing POPE, nobody ever chested on wife/gf or fudged taxes. The fact this hate is being spewed on a THE GAME weekend, on the losers website? Kinda pathetic. Showcasing UM morality, I guess.

blah blah blah you lost get over it....

Good for them. Aside from the extra practices bowl games provide, a non-BCS bowl is just as good as no bowl for the tOSUs, Alabamas, USCs, Oregons, and LSUs of the college football world, which is to say it's really not good at all. Of course such indifference sets in after playing in 8 BCS bowl games in 11 years, with a record of 5-3. So what tOSU faltered a few times on the Big Stage; it's only because they got there... ALOT. That is something that Purdue, Iowa State, Duke, AND ****igan cannot say.

Too bad ****igan fans have to resort to character attacks because the Buckeyes have proved to be better on the field over the last decade. Unless one is a fan of ND or Duke, I would not be throwing stones for fear of knocking out a glass wall or three and exposing your dirt.

Please share with us how "[t]OSU as an institution put up that 'hero's welcome' for Tress"? The 2002 National Championship TEAM was honored on the field. The PA announcer or anybody else for that matter did nothing to acknowledge Tressel above that team. It was the players from that team who hoisted THEIR FORMER COACH onto their shoulders and the fans who chanted Tressel's name.

Nice try attempting to besmirch the entire institution. Btw, I noticed ****igan did not remove the Big Ten and NCAA banners from the Fab Five years except under threat from the NCAA years after the transgressions. So much for honor and integrity.

Its not about being mad at him, you can like him or feel the way you do. Its about the embodiment of a program, and the image you want to represent and portray. To celebrate someone so shortly removed for serious violations is questionable judgement, the same kind of questionable judgement Tressel exhibited.

Except (correct me if I'm wrong), this situation had nothing to do with someone from the Ohio football program being investigated by the FBI. The FBI found out that football players were selling memorabilia, which Tressel subsequently found out about. When asked by the NCAA if he was playing anybody who was ineligible, he repeatedly said no. And of course Tressel would not have reported it once the investigation ended. He knew about this after the investigation, and before the NCAA found out he knew about this for the entire football season without notifying them. The NCAA found out on their own investigation that Tressel was not divulging information about improprieties and NCAA record violations, and he tried to cover up that he knowingly was playing ineligible players.

This comment is the rationale on why this thread was created. Michigan distanced themselves from these improprieties, especially immediately after the investigation was concluded. They did not parade anybody involved (to my knowledge) following any probation or sanctions. These two violations arent even tantamount, as one involved few players, while the other involved numerous players, but more importantly a complicit head coach.

Does your scenario factor in what "Tress" was told about what the FBI investigation revealed before he spoke with said players? If so, I think information from an FBI investigation would be more credible then speaking with said players....and then you take the players word anyways.

dont want to drone this on but if you have some evidence that the FBI couldn't produce you should present it, otherwise you're making slanderous remarks.
