Bigger and bigger and bigger and…
By Dan Wetzel: For Ohio State, it was another form of the cover-up Tressel started nine months prior. This is college sports’ highest-paid AD (Smith), highest-paid president (Gee) and arguably most-powerful person (Delany), millionaires one and all, making a mockery of the very NCAA statutes and procedures they create, enforce and claim to hold dear.…

The week in the (Michigan) blogs

As usual, the granddaddy of Michigan blogs, mgoblog, led the way thanks almost entirely to its forum. News is posted there within minutes of its occurrence and Brian Cook’s greatest achievement is 1)…

Over (at least for Jim Tressel)

Almost every day, something new
What the hell is the matter with this guy? Why doesn’t he: 1. Clean up the football program. 2.

From: Armstrong is the focus of public attention, but the investigation is a broader effort that seeks to show the relationship between doping and team leaders, coaches, and associates—not just unmasking the cheaters, but its institutional enablers. The case reportedly began with an investigation into Rock Racing, Hamilton’s last team And from The Post…

The gift that keeps on giving
Today there was more: hints that in the near future more violations by Ohio State, Tressel, Gene Smith, et. al. will come out. There is speculation that this time (the last one concerned car sales) they involve housing and vacation expenses. I seldom do this, but it spurred me to put a post here. Some…

Anyway, the reason I’m suspicious is that he doesn’t respect community rules. He doesn’t value the law. He doesn’t understand that it is not optional, and that no one–especially someone in a public capacity–can…
