Just a quick thought to those who think this is bringing any form of positive pr to OUr university.  The face of Ohio University has--at least for the near future--become an Ohio drop out, community college student who planned a year of his life around grabbing his shallow 15 minutes of Youtube fame. Hardly who I want representing this university.

Although you're right about what our reaction would be if the tables were turned, I do think other people's reactions would be different. Part of what makes this story work as a 3rd party spectator is the undertone and imagery of the fool hearted little guy running head first into the giant beast, with total disregard to logic or personal safety. It invokes similar feelings as that nutbag flight attendant who went postal, grabbed a beer, and hit the escape chute. It was a really dumb thing to do, but since no one got hurt its kinda funny too. And you gotta admit, that picture of poor Brutus getting punched in the head, with that look of surprise on his face, is pretty funny, all things considered. MY STATE. MY TEAM.

The way I see it it, "I don't really care" speaks volumes. He doesn't care about the way he represents the University he attended for a year. He doesn't care about any possible repercussions that might come from this (regardless of how ludicrous they might be) He doesn't care about having pride for being Rufus. (Despite what you might think currently, tackling Brutus from the back shouldn't be a source of pride.  Either way, I'm more talking about he didn't care about being Rufus, he just wanted to tackle Brutus and he chose your mascot to do that means to an end.

He was in costume for the game yesterday, and here is his take.  (Now, his side may be a little biased too, but I'll give you his side nonetheless) Quote: I figured someone would mention this, and yes it was me that was Brutus during this. I'm only going to comment on this once so here's the story. Basically myself and another cheerleader were running the flag like any other game leading the team out onto the field. All of a sudden I see the bobcat running at me. Obviously at first I was very confused and then realized that he was going to try and tackle me. As he went to tackle me, I lowered my shoulder and sent him to the ground and his head popped off (the pinnacle of mascot embarrassment). I then figured that was over with so I started to walk towards the endzone and was firing up the crowd. All of a sudden I feel someone jump on my back....it was the bobcat. He starts legit punching me so I jump and fall back on my back so that I land on him. He keeps punching so I throw him off of me and walk away. It wasn't planned and he almost got thrown out of the game. A lot of people asked why I didn't wail on him and my response is not only did I not want that to be my last game (Big 10 has VERY strict rules in regards to mascot fights) but I didn't want the bobcat and OU to make headlines off of Brutus' name and fame. After the first two OSU touchdowns I decided to exact my revenge with a little more class by waving the flag directly in his face and repeatedly pointing to the scoreboard.....and that's all I have to say about that. Also, a picture: http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs715.snc4/63... Funny how he made the headlines anyway.   B.S. Journalism, 2012.

Ironically, I just met a Clemson grad the other day who brought up Woody Hayes.  How many people did he punch before the Clemson Player?  He punched a photographer at the 73 Rose Bowl and also hit the ABC Cameraman during the 1977 Michigan Game.  OSU looked the other way time and time again.
