Just to add to the fun in Athens, Brian Smith has been placed on leave and they've named one of their assistants interim coach.

I run an insurance office in Downriver Detroit...a couple of month ago a woman and her 15 year-old daughter were in to buy a policy. Got to talking about the weekend,..I mentioned I might head down to BG to see the game and our new mascot Pudge the Cat. The 15 year old was all about Pudge.

What a great windfall for the University

My wife's friend, Kara, brought her daughter to the Kent State game just to meet pudge. And Kara is an Ohio U alum, I kid you not. Kara is obsessed with Pudge. This publicity was priceless for the university.

Rumors being floated on the OU board - won't post here since they're obviously unconfirmed but anyone interested can certainly pop over there and read.

Per Pete Nakos of On3sports, Ohio is vacating seven wins this year due to NCAA infractions.

What sort of NCAA rules are left to infract upon aside from those that are gambling related?

Looks like the vacated wins allegations were a BS post on Xwitter.

According to his attorney, he was asked to leave in the middle of a work day and put on paid leave. Attorney also pointed out that no charges or allegations have been brought against him. Wild situation with Signing Day tomorrow.

Usually not good to be asked to leave in the middle of the day

Brian Smith has been fired for engaging in "serious professional misconduct and participating in activities that reflect unfavorably on the University."

So much for that championship pedigree. 1 championship in almost 60 years and now their coach is out here burning the program down in 1 season. Yikes. Just hoping for everyone involved that nobody was harmed while Coach Smith was engaging in that conduct.

33, any comment on your favorite program exploding?

Any chance Ohio would consider a former Ohio State running back as coach?

He and Sherrone should become roommates and chase all the tail they can handle.

Come on now, Archie Griffin is way too old to be coaching.

Fair point, I guess I was thinking way too much about the impressions it might get.
