[NU Sports] Bowl ban for Ohio State

The NCAA had a problem.  They couldn't figure out where Smith's lips
stopped and Gee's butt started.  The NCAA clearly didn't have enough to
oust Gee.  It appears that they have also decided that they couldn't
surgically separate the two.  So Smith gets to stay for now firmly
attached.  I suspect we will see Smith finally exhale, disengage
himself, and gracefully retire sometime next year after UM has completed
his transition.

It was inspiring to see the OSU president and AD standup for what's
right
and good and throw Tressel under the bus.  OSU gets hit with failure to
maintain oversight of the athletic programs (emphasis on the "s") but
the
only staff member who loses his job and/or faces NCAA sanction is
Tressel,
who gets hit with a 5yr. show cause order that effectively ends his
collegiate career. That Tressel deserved it is not my problem; can
someone
explain why Gene Smith still has a job since he is the one who has
oversight responsibility?
That's a rhetorical question in case you couldn't tell.
