Who knows what Meyer knew or didn't know. Have you read The System? They talk extensively about OSU and that program has been dirty for a while. Tressel was in trouble long before anything was made public.
Tressel's a dirt bag no question but it's quite a leap to think he may have known what was coming considering it went down months later AND all of Ohio States behavior dealing w/ it initially was that of a school that had no intention of firing their coach until it got to the point they had no choice in order to escape some of the wrath of the NCAA. Remember some of Gordon Gee's quotes?

The beauty of it is these Big Ten schools like to parade around looking down their noses at the cheaters down south while they pursue academic and athletic excellence when in fact they're football factories cheating away just the same and sought to protect their national championship coach who routinely beat their rival until they could no longer do so.

I think what he means is, everyone in this thread is trolling and nobody is taking it that seriously.

Heh Tressel was cheating at Youngstown St. I think they paid a QB like $100k to go there. Which is nuts considering it's 1aa but they had some rogue booster as the story goes who ran amok while Tressel looked away.

He didn't know he swears.

I believe him I swear.

I always thought if Saban left Bama and I have my doubts he will, it'd be to jump back to the NFL.

Could see Washington or Dallas trying to lure him back.

He doesn't have anything to prove, except maybe that he could use Texas to get the biggest pay rise ever out of Alabama.

But yes, the SEC has been and is the best football conference. However there are schools there that have been competing for 50 years and never won the conference. MU is still in that group until they do it. And it won't come without resistance.

The last time someone outside the Big 6 won was a split in 1976 where Kentucky shared with Georgia. Before that it was 1963 with Mississippi!

If Missouri wins Saturday it will make tremendous waves across the conference. There's no doubt in that.
You're right some years are debatable but the counter is that they won all those games ('06, '07) and sometimes decidedly so. In 2011 I have no doubt the 2 best teams played but I think the sport would have been better off as a whole had LSU played OkSt instead. But the Pokes have no one to blame. The rematches are always blah.

I posted that same stat about the Big 6 in our football thread earlier today. It is quite remarkable.

No way. Too old.

Agree. It's zoo much easier for these old guys to coach college. NFL is psycho level year round.

College is banquets and schmoozing.

Peterson has rebuffed USC and Oregon in the past...he really gonna leave Boise for.....Washington?

I don't see it.

However UT is the ultimate. Everyone here likes to banter back and forth but there isn't a more powerful job in America than Texas. The highest concentration of athletes is in Texas and it really isn't close. What Saban could do there is scary. Especially in a conference that only has Oklahoma as a true blue blood competitor.

Winning a title at UT would cement him as the greatest of all time. Why not make a run at it. I think he's maxed what can be done at BAMA.
The highest concentration of athletes is absolutely not in Texas...and it's not even close. Hell, the highest total number of athletes come out of Florida despite Texas having more population. Louisiana and Mississippi are cranking out football talent. They have the highest concentration, but they have fewer residents in total.

Oops, I was incorrect. Seems the most NFL talent comes from California.

Texas is only #2

If Saban really wants to clean up he will take a job in the SEC-E
