Maurice Clarett will leave a light on for you.

And by the way, don't worry about graduating from OSU, cause we all know you never intended on getting a real education. Besides it's a well known fact that Thee Ohio State student body will never welcome you back to Columbus.

what an apology. what was it an entire 2 minutes.

[FrOnT RoW JOE]

There should be no apology...pack your sh!t and get out....

Though I do see it as bull crap that these guys cant sell there personal belongings to whoever they want...i get a reward for work, I dont want it, so be it...they expect these KIDS to go to school, basically work for "free" as a big time collegiate player....sure theres more plus sides to that then down, but these guys dont have the time other kids have to go work and go to school...lets face it, most these players dont have a pot to piss in when they come to school any how...So maybe the NCAA needs to look at things different...Also he did nothing a lot of other players and schools are participating in...its just who gets caught.

I thought TP played good not great, at tOSU. However, he seems to be a problem/accident waiting to happen....again. My thought - SO LONG - SEE YA !! Any player who puts himself first before the team, coach and University - needs to grow up first. Secondly, you sre so arrogant that it is a pleasure to see you go. Playing half the season would only have messed up the chemistry of the team the second half of the season. I loved coach Tressel and thought he was one of the best coaches in the business. Its just sad to see him to be forced to leave because of the actions of a few players. He was putting his a## on the line for these 5 and it cost him his job. Best of luck to you, Coach. Pryor - take your arrogant self to another state...or country. I heard the CFL might take you. That would be better than the NFL, then I wouldn't see you on American television !!

Oh and that apology. Just proves my point to "grow up" Can you say 'Hooked on phonics?'

It was his choice to break NCAA rules by lying to them.........he is the one responsible for getting the boot, not Pryor. Fact of the matter is if he doesn't deliberately lie to the NCAA, Tressel is still coaching and is never in trouble to begin with. He broke his own back.

Quite the opposite, but at least I realize the repercussions for doing so and accept them.

Though, I felt Pryor was going to be eventual problem, he was not the only one and not the first player to do what he did. He just was one of the big names that got caught. Tressel lied to the NCAA thinking he could play dumb and it would go away, he made that choice. He could have told the AD and then walked away from it, and still be coaching with no suspension at all. Tressell knew what he was doing, he knew he needed those players to play in the bowl game to win.

AND stop with the are playing for free CRAP. THEY GET free housing, free food, free classes, all of their workout clothes are free. And they get a FREE education. NOt the universities fault they don't utilize it. So if they are going to classes, they basically get to play football. Why should I pay them, the university is giving them everything they need. And the ones you are thinking of, they are getting promoted, and free training to get them ready for the NFL. They would have to pay someone to do that for them, if they didn't go to college. So stop saying the colleges are taking advantage of them. IF weren't for the university signing them to play they still wouldn't have a pot to piss in.
