    WOW!! But not unexpected. Now he can go to USC.

    He should have done what Carroll did and leave town when he knew the NCAA was riding in to lay some justice down. Then, like Carroll, he could have just stated he had no idea what was coming and so on... But, it stayed, lied, and now his reputation is far worse.

    wonder if this was the right job Bellotti was talking about to leave ESPN for? He flirted with them before.

    I think it'd be a good fit.

    I dont think USC would touch Sweater Vest with a 10 foot pole right now though. Not that they would be bad fits, just with each dealing with their own trouble they would be under and even bigger microscrope and take a lot of hits to their reputation.

    Now there's reports that Pryor has had up to 10 different cars in his time at Ohio St.

    I heard 5, but what's the real difference.

    And another thing.... students on athletic scholarships are required to notify the AD's office about every car they register to park on campus. As such, the AD and university President were also aware of a lot of the stuff involving Pryor. Why aren't they stepping down? Answer, Pryor was making the school money. The coach is always the fall guy.

    If they don't get AT LEAST the same penalty USC got, I'll be pissed. Should be worse, since they have a head coach lying about it, which isn't what happened with USC.

    Heard this on ESPN last night.

    "Lying/withholding from the NCAA is worse than the actual violation"

    Retarded.

    Pryor apparently showed up to a team meeting last night in a new Nissan 350z with temporary plates dated 5/24/11.

    Apparently they don't teach common sense at tOSU.

    So, Oregon is retroactively named 2010 Rose Bowl Champion?

    Why is it that the Ducks always seem to play the dirty team of the year in a bowl game?

    not much is going to be "right" about the tOSU job after they get hammered by the NCAA

    Somewhere, GO is thinking the Buckeyes shortchanged him.
