Also, continued to sit on it until after signing day and "reportedly" only went public when the girls' parents threatened to go nuclear on them.

Call it what you want, they knew it was going on. We have a few OHIO connections there inside those walls. They knew it was going down.

The details are just sad. Getting caught up with your subordinate is one thing, getting fired over it, threatening suicide and then going to their house and attacking that person is just a full scale mental break. Hard to feel bad for someone who gets themselves into that position in the first place, but man oh man my stomach hurts for the fallout. Literally may have ruined his entire life over this. Truly hope not and he gets some help. I've never rooted for Michigan in my entire life. I've never spent a single minute thinking about Moore. Now we know so much about his personal life and this absolute spiral that may cost a 39 year old man his family and life as he knew it.

Clowns. https://president.umich.edu/news-communications/messages-... / The Leaders and Best. My youngest daughter got her undergraduate degree from UMich, and after her sophomore year she stopped going to football games. She said Michigan football was a cult, and the cult mentality was getting scary to her. Never thought I'd say this, but I think it's even a bigger cult than the one 70 miles up the road in Cowtown.

Watch, they'll mess up this hire somehow instead of getting the right guy, they'll get someone who ticks the Michigan Man boxes. Because the last time they swung for the fences outside of their little bubble (RichRod) it failed miserably.

Ohio has Cincy but all of their "fans" are mainly bucknuts In the ten years that I lived in Cincinnati, I actually didn't meet many Ohio State fans. Cincy is a weird melting pot because there are so many schools within driving distance. Once UC started getting bigger you could feel the shift more towards them and away from OSU, and literally right across the river is UK country. A little IU sprinkled in during bball season, even with UC/X right down the road.

Bengals for the most part yes, Reds not really. For the Bengals it was during the peak Marvin Lewis/Andy Dalton years so they were always in contention but not consistently great. The Reds kinda dropped off right before I left, but I'll never forget them blowing through the NL Central in 2012 and going up 2-0 on the road against the Giants in the NLDS and then farting away the next three at home in Cincinnati. Giants went on to win the World Series that year and the Reds never fully recovered.

Within the state's general population, I'd say no. Within the university administration, I'd definitely say it's worse than Columbus. OSU has recently forced out two Hall of Fame coaches who embarrassed it. That's a pretty big contrast to how Michigan handled Harbaugh, Moore and you can throw Juwan Howard in too. I think they had some serious scandals with the hockey coach also and fought doing anything about it until the last minute.

It just doesn't compute in their institutional dna. So because OSU showed accountability and held their coaches to account, it’s a bad thing? And in the same post you claim they hate being known as a football factory? Make up your mind here! And guess what they moved on from Tressel and had even more success. They moved on from Meyer and have found even greater success. Fact is, since Michigan hired Harbaugh, they have had 11 coaches either arrested for criminal offenses or banned by the NCAA. And yet, they claim it’s all a witch hunt.
