[Maurice Clarett] was a hard worker in practice and in games. But off the field, he was living a completely different life. "I took golf, fishing, and softball as classes," Clarett says. "Away from class, anything you can think of I did in my 13 months at Ohio State." Drugs and women were two of the things. Cars were another—he owned three of them at a time, including a brand-new Cadillac and Lexus. "I was living the NFL life in college," he says. "I got paid more in college than I do now in the UFL."

So you only want to compare modern era stats?
Well then I guess you should know you lead us in this stat as well
Ohio Has been sanctioned 3 times in modern history
Violations occured probation period Bowl Ban? 1951-1955 1 year probation 2004 3 yr probation bowl ban 2008-2010 tattoo gate 3 year probation bowl ban
If you look close you will see you just got off probation when you started cheating again.
Good stuff
Michigan 1 time in 2008-2009 for extra practices no bowl ban
Congrats dipshit!
You lead 3-1 in that stat !!
Also you are preaching about knowing history , So you telling us that pre 1930's is not history?
Wonder what Word War 1 vets would have to say about that?

It says more about the type of person who flames a troubled kid years after the fact.. than it does about Mo C or Tressel or his university who didn't turn their back.
Guess what.. This story has a happy ending.
The moral to the story, the reason for the book, the true story written by Clarett is that he did the deeds. Takes full responsibility. It was him who made the decisions, chose his path, accepts responsibility, and paid the consequences.
After being kicked off the team, squandered his athletic talent, his intellect, his full ride, he chose a path that led him to prison.
It is bad karma to flame someone who made this much positive progress with their life and the lives of others. Might want to rethink this troll.

Is everyone in Ohio a dumb ass or just the fans?
Who's mad? I'm not mad at all!
We are talking about a decade of cheating from Ohio! Why should I be mad?
The fact that you idiots keep posting in our boards about this 26-21 record? Not even mad about that. Just shows how stupid you guys can be.
Good luck
Have a merry Christmas !

This has been one of the more entertaining threads on this board. I would like to thank everyone who participated in it. I would also like to thank you for shattering the myth that the Big 10 is squeaky clean. Of course, I never bought into the myth to begin with
yea, all that integrity and academia of the BIG is just a BIG PILE OF
so all you BIG fans should just lay off that crap for let's say, until you actually win the championship two times in a row. then we'll over look it here in the lowly cheating and stupid SEC.

Well said. But, what you ask would be taking the high road. Do all Buckeyes - or at least most, give the same consideration for other player issues outside your program?
Good for Maurice, but what it all boils down to is. tOSU SHOULD have known what was going on, after all "high profile players demand high profile compliance" I've read your boards, and you people are very good at throwing stones out of that glass house of yours.

That's interesting. In fact, if you take away Maurice Clarett, Troy Smith and Terrelle Pryor, the three highest profile OSU players sanctioned for taking extra benefits during the Tressel era, I wonder what the Vest's record would have been. My guess is something significantly less noteworthy than what he is given credit for. Whoever said "cheaters never win" clearly never met Jim Tressel.

We are both atheists. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours
