Chase Young gets 2 games

Not really. Fields seems like he's a pretty antisocial type of student. Maybe he doesn't like the traffic, all the students, the walking, etc that comes with being a regular student. Being able to take all your courses online is extremely convenient, I don't know why more people don't do it in 2019
So antisocial he was featured in a multi-episode Netflix documentary as a high-schooler :rolleyes:

how old are you? You spend an awful lot of time creating pathetic defenses of teenagers you don’t know for people you’ve never met on the internet. Man the f up.Fields is anti-social, Chase Young’s gf can’t work a job but good thing he has so many family friends he didn’t know about til he arrived in Columbus. Just give it up. Hell the Astros approach would even be refreshing at this point.
 
If Sean Miller can be caught on tape offering $100k for a recruit and is still coaching, then this kid should play after sitting a game for getting a plane ticket for his girlfriend.
 
Gene Smith (OSU AD) just emphasized in his press conference addressing Chase Young's suspension for 2 games that the person who turned in Chase Young was NOT anyone affiliated with Maryland or Penn State
 
Who said they don't pay the refs as well as the players? Certainly not me. Not after what I've witnessed over the years anyway.

They don't need to pay the refs, John O'Neill's entire crew are native Buckeyes and are completely in the tank for OSU. They're sluts, not whores

"I want to thank and express my sincere gratitude to university staff members who worked so diligently and expertly to learn and understand the facts, and then to report these facts to the NCAA as part of our request to have Chase reinstated," Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said in a prepared statement. "This is the example of the culture of compliance we have at Ohio State. I also want to commend Chase Young and let him know how proud we are of him. He took responsibility for his actions, cooperated throughout the process and understood and accepted that there would be consequences."

It takes a whole lot of gall for this asshole Gene Smith to talk about Ohio State's "culture of compliance." Same thing for describing the booster who lent the money to Chase Young, after meeting him for the first time in the summer preceding Young's freshman year, as a "family friend." Such a yuge slap on the hand banning him from the Maryland and Rutgers games.

Ahh, there's that "holier than thou" mentality I've grown so accustomed of seeing. You wanted it to be an agent so bad, you wanted OSU to vacate wins so bad, you wanted him to be suspended for the rest of the season so bad, but it wasn't any of that and now you're complaining that it's unfair and OSU skates. What's really unfair is that this was a 2 game suspension and not a 0 game suspension.

If you look hard enough, you can find a conspiracy in just about everything.

 
So Ohio State delivers up a BS story with BS timing, and the BS institution supposedly safeguarding the integrity of the sport imposes a BS (non)-penalty for two BS games -- the effect of which is to help, rather than penalize, the BS offender.

Congratulations, Mr. Herbie Delany. Mission accomplished.

Could anyone wonder why JF might seize the right opportunity to escape this Sucker's Game?
 
Im an ass because I was right about everything I said and you had nothing else to say other than go **** yourself? Okay buddy.

I've met several OSU fans in my lifetime and with one exception, they have all been pompous asses.

And that's why he's being suspended 2 games for it. But the bigger question is, why is it a rule in the first place? Thank God these players are getting paid here in the near future.
Whatever happened to the notion you go to college to GET an education, then get a decent job to earn a good living. Oh, that's right, it;s OSU! According to that NFL great Cardell Jones, you don't play School! Isn't that why John Cooper got fired? A couple of 0.0 GPA's on the football team?

It always comes down to $$$$$$$. The B10 wants OSU in the playoffs so bad they’re going to suspend him for two games. Both games are against......well let’s just say weak competition. Suspending him against Penn State and Michigan would be way too risky. If this happened at another B10 school the consequences would have been profoundly worse. In sports and in life those are the breaks.

In fairness to kid who dreams of playing in the NFL and is not interested in higher education, what other legitimate options are there other than to go to college for three years?

Good point and for the most part true. But honestly it’s gotten so out of hand sometimes it makes me wonder if a minor league similar to baseball wouldn’t be a better option.

Just my humble opinion, but passing up an education is nothing but dumbing down society.

In my opinion the athlete is also doing a disservice to himself. The lure of NFL money forces kids to make very bad decision after sports. The number of retired athletes filing for bankruptcies is through the roof.

Regardless of your opinion (which really has nothing to do with what I said, whether I agree with it or not) what legitimate choice does a guy who just graduated from high school have if he wants to play in the NFL?

In a sane world, the NFL would be forced to develop their own farm league (like they had in Europe but didn't like losing money on). Then we could get back to amateur football w/ real students.

That’s my point. We are essentially forcing guys that want to play in the NFL to go college for 3 years whether they want to or not.

The problem is that many of these kids - FROM ALL SCHOOLS including PSU, OSU, and UM (Go Blue) - passed up education when they were in high school and really don't have the background for succeeding in college courses. The question to ask is how many CF players would be in college if it wasn't for football - or even want to be ? And what really gives me a laugh is when schools pound their chests about how "we do things the right way." Guess what, BS goes on at ALL schools and anyone that thinks otherwise needs to take the blinders off.
 
So much was the loan for? How did he pay it back already? Delivering pizza's in the evening? Maybe working at a Ice cream parlor or detailing cars at the local Ford dealership? Maybe a bowl of shit? Yes-sir!!

Was this always the case? I don't think so. Things have changed!
 
Bingo ! Spot on and there's the real problem.
Did you get a chance to watch the Dartmouth Princeton game? Create a minor league and put real teeth into admission standards and that’s what college football will look like in less than a decade. After 10 minutes I had to change the channel.
 
Chase Young lost a shot at the Heisman through his suspension and while that might not mean much to those on this board, that's a pretty big deal.

I would defend one of our kids if they were in a similar situation. No double standards!
 
There’s really two choices, everything else is a variation. He should either be penalized for breaking a rule consistent with the precedent set forth by similar infractions; or he broke a rule so he should be sent to prison for 20 years with no chance of parole.

The NFL does not want to pay for one. The owners do not want to share any of their earnings by subsidizing a minor football league. Why should they as the NCAA is quickly moving toward taking care of that void for them? College football will be the true minor league with overtly paid players in just a few short years.

If he is rejected by the NFL or becomes incapacitated, what are his options without a proper education? Shoot for the pros and if you fall short, become a mind numbed neanderthal.
 
Reminds me of when Gene Smith joked about Jim Tressel firing him... no culture problem there. Nope

To be clear, it was gordon gee, the president of Tosu at the time, who said that. Classic Tosu. Not only gee’s “joke”, but the fact that tressel sat at a press conference tacit while his bosses, smith and gee, spoke incorrectly as to when he knew about his players’ transgressions. They said he learned about them during the season. Nope. He knew about the transgressions that spring, well before the season started, and he did nothing but play those players to, of course, win games.

More classic Tosu: In 2011, the previously fired and embarrassed tressel attended a halftime ceremony to honor the 2001 national championship team. Players from that team hoisted tressel on their shoulders, and Tosu athletic supporters gave him a standing ovation.

Tosu continues to be an embarrassment to what college and college athletics are supposed to stand for, yet Penn State has the culture problem.

His options are the same as everybody else without a “proper” education. Plumber, electrician, maintenance, armed forces, etc..... That’s not the point.

He had about as much of a shot at winning the Heisman as I did. At best he may have gotten invited, but no way in hell a defensive players wins the “QB with the best statistics and most hype” award.

If he went to Ohio State, ESPN will hire him so he can be a mind numbed Neanderthal with a microphone.
