OT: Gordon Gee's complete remarks.

[JDBEARCAT]

Oh Please Oh Please - Let them pick Nancy to follow Gordy.

That would be poetic justice is she were picked to succeed him

[red_n_black_attack]

Yeah, Gee is retiring but the arrogance amoung osu administration won't. His replacement (whoever he or she is) will perpetuate the same condescending, arrogant attitude. It goes with the territory at osu.

don't let the door hit you on the way out gordey, you goof. the crime is the ohio taxpayers will likely be paying his pension for a while. it should come out of the osu booster's wallets.

[CoachPipe]

Rumor is Brian Kelly to be offered the position as he now says its always been his dream job

[blackattack]

To wrap this up, Gee retired.

And this fine look at college athletics per Pat Forde:

That's hilarious. I was thinking if Gee got fired, she may return to her alma mater. I hope she does. They deserve each other.

Lol. Would that be awesome or what. It'll never happen though. Shes very capable of destroying the osu athletic empire in short order. Lol

Tweet from Frank Martin this morning: @CoachHuggs how about The comments by Ohio State President?Remember that Ol Nancy was his disciple. Ignorance is never an excuse!!!

I'm sure many of you follow Santa Ono on twitter. He just fired off a few tweets lobbying for state government to support the development of multiple world class campuses. He also called for the state universities presidents to collaborate rather than compete.

I wonder with Gee seemingly in hot water up in Columbus if Ono is trying to 'strike while the iron is hot' and get some kind of show of public support out of him in an attempt to repair his public image. I highly doubt that will ever happen, but you can't blame Ono if that's what he's trying to do.

Speaking of twitter... Jeff Ruby isn't dropping the Gordon Gee thing either and he fired off a tweet a couple days ago that had me laughing for a few minutes. It was something to the effect of "who knew Gee's side job was as a double for Orville Redenbacher" and showed a photo of the two. For those that have not looked at such a juxtaposition they are near spitting images of each other though Orville looks a bit taller.

His dumb azz needs to go. The whole Catholics comment got me. The rest is just nails in the coffin. I guess he doesn't know Urban is a DEVOUT Catholic.

I'm with ya, the Catholics comment did it for me

Ono doesn't care about saving the guys job.

Of course not. Ono visited OSU last month and that db Gee couldn't even make time to meet with him. I just think that given the backlash to Gee's comments, Ono is trying to get him to make a statement that he otherwise never would make. It would be much more valuable for UC if Gee showed support of Ono's statements instead of every other state school not named OSU.

[Lobot]

Ono received and accepted Gee's apology 2 days ago ago according to his twitter feed. Ono's being a stand up guy in this by not stooping to Gee's level of rhetoric.

Probably the exact opposite. He understand Gee will never go for it bit EVERY other university in this state will, and Columbus will have to be forced to take a position where there is only one university in the state our the playing field is leveled. Ono doesn't care about saving the guys job.
