every school does that shit, even UM. The NCAA already investigated OSU a year ago and couldn't find anything, so i'm not too worried about the program being put on any kind of probation. but don't get me wrong, i'm sure clarett and other players recieved money and other shit, but like i said it happens at every school. when at Iowa i knew some basketball players who drove around in new explorers and had their apartment rent paid for. these guys come from the ghetto and all of a sudden have $10,000 gold necklaces and those fuckers never went to class and still passed. Hell, if the NCAA investigates anybody it should be Steve Alford and Iowa's bball team. as for the piece of shit Clarett, i don't think he'll be showing his face in Ohio any time soon. I think since nobody gives a shit about him he wanted to attract some attention to himself. He'll be in and out of the NFL faster than Ryan Leaf.
You don't have to tell me about Football and Basketball players recieving money and gifts. I know for a fact there are players rollin' around in nice ass rides, because I see them every day. I am not naming names or nothing but it is a part of life at a big time college football school.
There is an Sports Illustrated columnist named Stewart Mendel, and he wants the President of the Ohio State University, Dr. Karen Holbrook to report the universitys improprieties to the NCAA and impose a one year death penalty on the entire athletic depatment. Sounds pretty harsh to me. ------>

and as for the douchbag - i would assume you are refering to one of the greatest freshmen ever - Adrian Peterson! yes, Hart has had 3 games with over 200 yards rushing, but AP is not only possibly going to be the 1st freshman to win the heisman, but has rushed for over 100 yards in 9 straight games. (hmm.. i don't recall Hart up for the heisman this year, but OU has 2 players up for it!!)
OK, when you start the Mike Hart bashing thats when I have to get involved.
Cassidy, Peterson is no doubt a great player, but he ain't winning the Heisman. You only think he is up for the Heisman because ESPN is hyping him up, but ESPN doesn't vote on the Heisman. If Herschel Walker didn't win the Heisman, no way Peterson does. Walker rushed for 1616 yards, avg 5.9 ypc, and scored 15 td's in his freshman year. While Peterson has comperable numbers, Herschal did not win the heisman his fresman year, and neither will Peterson.
Peterson started all the games for OU this year and has 1,373 yards rushing, a whole 213 yards more than Mike Hart.
Mike Hart did not start a game until week 4.
213 yards is one game to Mike.
Peterson is pretty good but he is not the best.
Yeah, Mike Hart is the Man.
Besides, ain't you a UVA fan? And Fuck the Big "Pussy" XII.
