Place your bet: Who picks up next NCAA violation?

Posted by Tom Fornelli

College football programs running afoul of the NCAA is the latest fashion in the sport today, as seemingly every program is running out and picking up all the latest violations. USC already has its, and Ohio State is next in line, but who will follow the Buckeyes? Well, if you feel you have a good idea, you can put your money where your gut instinct is. Among the bets that online sportsbook BetUS.com is listing on its website these days is which NCAA program will be the next to commit an NCAA violation? While the site if offering odds on schools themselves, or separate football and basketball programs, we are a football blog. So we're going to focus on the football odds.

They are as follows:

Southern California 8/1
Ohio State 9/1
Florida 10/1
Ole Miss 10/1
Florida State 12/1
Michigan State 12/1
Alabama 13/1
Michigan 13/1
Georgia 14/1
Iowa 14/1
Georgia Tech 14/1
Oklahoma 15/1
Virginia Tech 15/1
Mississippi State 15/1
Cincinnati 15/1
Texas A&M 15/1
Boston College 16/1
Oklahoma State 17/1
Texas 18/1
Texas Tech 18/1
Missouri 18/1
TCU 20/1
UCLA 20/1
California 20/1

I don't want to tell you where to place your money, but I do like the value of Ole Miss at 10/1.

Also, if betting on NCAA violations goes against your moral code as a college football fan, don't worry. The site is also taking bets on the number of Florida Gators football players who will be arrested in 2011. Now is your chance to make crime pay!

..no AUB? no ORE? Must be too close to call.

Miami not even on the list. Awesome. People are finally beginning to let their preconceptions go.

I think AUB and ORE are off the list because they are already about to get slammed. Sure, as the NCAA digs a little deeper they will probably find a few more major violations along the way (OSU actually didn't look that bad to me until Pryor's vehicle story came out, but that could just be agents, and you know I don't feel that that should be a school's responsibility, unless a staff member is actually promoting it, like at UNC).
 
So how's the depth at QB for OSU? Someone who knows OSU better than me, please comment. Do you really think the true freshman Miller will be the guy this season? It worked decently well for Michigan to start a true freshman dual threat QB, I guess...

watching the Spring Game, where TP hardly played, it was nice to see the Buckeyes have some depth (albeit young) at QB

Braxton Miller was recruited as the next TP. and while he has freshman kinks, he has a better arm than TP (who doesn't though LOL) and is mobile (but not quite as miraculously mobile as TP was)

we also have a couple white QBs that can be a pocket-passing threat. however, with the recent successes of the Buckeyes + a mobile QB (as started by that God Among Men in Collegiate Footbaw Troy Smith), I truly suspect that tOSU will stay on the mobile QB course

as for TP leaving, one could kinda surmise that this would happen. I read an ESPN article a week ago that stated, shockingly, TP's parental guardian (his grandpa iirc) said that he would stay at tOSU. although TP is damned if he did (stays), and damned if he didn't (left) - I couldn't possibly see him staying on the Buckeyes and even attending class at university. Buckeyes fans are crazy, and I would fear my life is I were TP when walking to class

I do think that it would have been far more honorable if TP decided to stay. sure, he would have gotten a lot of shit, but at least he would have taken his NCAA-sanctioned punishment like a man and try to right his name

but by everything I have ever heard about TP these last few years on campus, it was rather obvious that he was going to be gone. I predict that he will make a failed exit to the NFL, see no success (you can't run all over the place in a NFL game - the linebackers will raep you), and then run across some problems a la Maurice Clarett in the future

say what you will about Maurice Clarett, but at least that guy won us a National Championship ;)

Sorry for confusion.

say what, I'm confused

oh yah, we should tell all of our fellow S&G NCAA footbaw peeps about our suicide pact, coming up in September

in the unflappably fabulous (most especially for this past season) S&G NBA thread, 3, 4-whatever-the-fuck proposed to me that since the team that loses this year's Miami VS Ohio State game's season would be over anyways, that the fan of said losing team should commit ritualistic suicide next to the other fan (most likely via DRUGS)

although I still believe that the Miami Hurricanes can lose this seminal early match-up, and come out with a (rather worthless) ACC footbaw championship... I would agree with him that tOSU's season would be very much over

on the plus side, because of this suicide pact I get to travel all the way down Route 75 to Miami, and spend some quality time in the beach during the month of my birthday. since I will be driving from Ohio, I will be traversing over many an SEC town (or at least nearby). hypothetically speaking, on my way from Ohio I could stop in Tennessee and bang ChickenScratch's sister, just like Bruce Pearl has banged a couple cheerleaders (you know, NBD)

then, I could make a pit stop in Atlanta (and my god only Atlanta; Georgia is a horrendously yokel state save for ATL and maybe Athens [but I've never been to Athens]) and furiously moon the residence of Pander Bear and his Dixie Fried Queen, Kenickie. on my bare ass cheeks would be "UR TEAM SUX, BUT U DO PROCREATE ONE OR GOOD QUALITY DRAFT PICK A YEAR!" I will need to start eating a lot more fatty foods to get that whole line on my barren bum

then, I could drive past the eerily purgatorial right-wing, Bible-beating capital of the USA - Gainesville. I would only stop to take a huge shit under the "Welcome to Gainesville" sign

and then I would finally drive past Orlando and hit up Miami. where I would procure the finest Cuban cigar, Cubano sandwich, and a fine little Cubanita on my arm...

WHERE THE OHIO STATE BATTLIN' BUCKEYES WILL PROCEED TO RAEP THE MIAMI HURRICANES FOR NOT THE 1ST, NOT THE 2ND, BUT 3RD TIME IN RECENT FOOTBAW MEMORY!!

and then I will use 3,4-whatever-the-fuxphen's own computer to post in the BL Shrine, "mourning" his death ;) ;) ;)
 
^lol Axl.


I was really tired when I posted, but I was attempting to make a joke about how much of a joke all this NCAA mandated revisionist history is.


And I ain't given up my password even if I die, motherfucker :p


3,4-whateverthefuck is too sacred a name %)
 
hahaha, damn I was obviously really high when I wrote that

well I guess we should officially go back to hating one another and talking mad shit before our big game. at least with all the penalties the NCAA is hitting my Buckeyes with, it has made this match-up interesting

... and to think, now your Hurricanes actually have a chance of winning the game ;)

lol yeah, I knew something was off. If you weren't usually such a nice person, I might have taken offense. You're a good writer and know how to shit talk while not coming across as an asshole, so at first I was like "wtf?" and then I was like, "he's probably high or pissed off about something else, or both" so I didn't respond in kind. It's cool.

I'm really not interested in shit talking this season, however. I really don't see the great significance in this game anymore. Both teams have new coaches, lost their best players, and should be unranked. Last year it was #2 v. #12, and before my Canes completely embarrassed the entire city there was a lot of hope and optimism.

Now, Miami is with a very good upstart coach, and Ohio State has an intern and nobody worth rooting for. It's so fucking bleh, last season I was all pumped up at around this time, but this season I feel like we will be watching two 8-4 crappy teams play each other. It doesn't carry the same wow factor that last years game did, and it was an exciting ass game. I can't believe my Canes would have beaten you had it not been for 4 really bad interceptions by Jacory Harris. I mean, you won, cause we have a shit QB, but it still goes to show that despite some of the worst coaching and strength and conditioning in the nation, we still almost had your ass based on pure talent.

This is like a waiting for next year year for me. I've had enough of those. The Canes, Heat, and Dolphins have drained all of the life out of me. Fucking disappointment all around me :(
 
looks like former New England Patsy LB and current Kansas City Chiefs LB, Mike Vrabel, just retired from the NFL

Vrabel hails from the Ohio State University, a program that most recently has pumped out more star-studded linebackers than the official Linebacker U, Penn State (blegh)

Vrabel will now be coaching the LBs at tOSU. while recent news has proved to be a quagmire for the Buckeyes, finally a diamond in the rough. Mike Vrabel was nothing but a joy to watch on the field, and he was a very upstanding character off the field. tOSU, among recent allegations, needs a player just like this and I couldn't be happier with the news

Vrabel was the roomies with current Buckeyes interim head coach, Luke Fickell. I'm sure this has something to do with his momentous decision
