Just between gentlemen? - Friday, April 25, 2008 2:56 PM
I know this topic has been beat to death...but TuOS just pulled an Illinois commit...

I personally don't have a problem with this.  I believe it is the players choice to de-commit, and recruiting doesn't stop till the pen hits the LOI.
 
I Just can't understand why The Vest would say such a thing a few weeks ago...............and then pull this!

That quote was blown way out of proportion. IMO it was just an attempt at saying that noone in the recruiting business is a gentleman.

But, 12th commit this year. It's a good time to be a Buckeye.
tOSU was THE leader in graduation rate and a role model for discipline during the Woody Hayes-Earle Bruce era. Cooper destroyed that legacy. RR is UM's version of Cooper. I will enjoy seeing UM fans kicked off your high horse when arrests pile up.

That's the same thing their recruits say, after they meet the boosters for the first time. 
See you in another life, brother.

And the 2nd time, 3rd time, 4th time, etc....
 
 
 
Don't mail it in, don't pack it in, give it everything you've got. Grind it out, I don't care what kind of game you have, somehow try and find a way to get it done ... That's part of my attitude and belief, that you

Yes im a michigan fan actually agreeing with a buckeye fan for perhaps the first time in my life, but i have to agree with ant. I don't think tressel was trying to say he was a gentleman and RR isn't, i think he was saying that the only agreement is between gentlemen, and in the context, he said it like he was on the outside of the statement, so i dont blame him for this at all.

Tressel meant it as a dig, that's why he never tried to correct the interpretation the media made out of it. But now that he has done the same thing the statement was taken out of context. Is he now misspeaking. Oh but that seems to be the trend these days.

Exactly.
