I just heard on channel 6 news that some buckeye football players are in trouble and we'll hear about it at 5. I tried looking it up and couldn't find anything. Anyone have any idea?

If it was anything major, and the media knew about it, it would be out already.
Well rape is pretty major.
probably forgot to signal a left hand turn, and the news outlet is trying to boost ratings to get people to tune then, then they will save it for the end, so people stay throughout the broadcast, and end it with "a warning was given to **** ******** for turning left without signaling. More as this story develops... Tomorrow."

I hate those friggin' promos. The story probably won't be on until after 6...stay tuned.

I was thinking, earlier, about how it seems like last year around this time Stonum had just been booted and Furman was accused of some crap with his girlfriend. I think Storm Klein and maybe another was in the news.
I was thinking how nice it is that these kids are behaving this year and this and that...but I didn't want to post anything, as not to jinx it. I guess we'll have to wait and see what this is about, but it was nice while it lasted.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

Don't worry...we all know you'll be giddy over any sort of suspension...trust me...

I don't get giddy when a kid screws up his life or someone elses.
What's weird to me is that this allegedly happened on Oct 21 and was reported on Nov 10. Why is it coming out now?
Edit: typo

So I guess any minute now one of your players will be charged with a crime and get away without serious punishment? Just like last year?
Wishful thinking but... maybe its on the Steubenville program?
Nothing like dancing on the field in 02...
I hadn't read up on that in a while...
Did anything ever happen to the football players?
Its in court right now.

Looking at the Channel 6 website, one of the featured stories is the Steubenville case. My guess is that is what the story is about. If there was any news about actual Ohio State players my guess is that we would already know about it.
I just read the Clarett post too. F'n great.

What did Clarett say? Can't access that stuff at work!

Sorry....nothing related to the above. Had read a post in the forum about MoC's turnaround, and how well he's doing:

I finished reading that and saw the above, and made my comment about the irony.
Sounds like this is regarding the high school scandal, no members of the Ohio State football program.

Battles are sometimes won by generals; wars are nearly always won by sergeants and privates. Football is no different, the guys down in the trenches win the games, not the coach.
They didn't even mention any names.
I'm assuming one of them might have been Pittman since Carol Luper said that one left the team last week.
"YOLO" = I'm about to do something extremely ignorant/stupid & I need an excuse to do it.
Watching the news now and no news at all. I guess no news is good news!
3 Freshmen Players Linked to Alleged Rape Case

Thanks for updating.....looks like we'll be waiting to see how this unfolds.
"Success - it's what you do with what you got" - Woody Hayes
Hate seeing that type of crap happening no matter what team the players play for. If they did do bad things then they should be charged. Better not be another Duke style made up crap.....hate hearing when false accusations are made.
Well it says one of the players left team last week so that is Sa'Vonn Pittman. Question is who are the other 2? If this is true and they did do it they have to go no questions asked. But again it has to be proven. If this is another Duke style made up situation then that is not good either because it ruins reputations and that is hard to overcome for the rest of your life. Only time will tell. But this is not good considering UFM has us on a serious roll recruiting wise and coming off a 12-0 season.
Because they wouldn't let me go for 3!

@ATLBUCKEYE09:
The situation is a little confusing to me. From what I can gather it sounds like:
Guy #1 - Invited the girl back to his room, made out with her (this I would assume was consensual); Doesn't seem to know what happened in the bathroom with Guy #2 and the girl.
Guy #2 - Forced the girl to perform oral sex on him in the bathroom (this would obviously be illegal, and should result in jail time if found to be true)
Guy #3 - No clue if he was even in the room at the time?
^I'm not sure how that would be handled legally? Would all three be subject to criminal prosecution (Guy #1 and #3 as onlookers/accomplices)? Or just Guy #2?
It will have to be a wait and see type of thing but if true than it makes me sick.
I was just about to update you guys.
Rape is such a brutal crime. I have zero respect for any man who forces himself sexually upon another without consent. False accusation of such a brutal crime is almost as bogus. The he said/she said aspect of the accused situation needs to be figured out, by law enforcement. I know I'll have strong angry feelings towards the guilty party (false accusation, raper). I guess we'll have to wait to know.
From Storm Klein's domestic violence issues to this...enough is enough.
Without implicating anyone or making any sort of allegations, I will say it is interesting that someone left the program last week & that seems to be the person implicated in this story...I guess I'm wondering out loud if that transfer, that we all assumed had to do with the player being buried in the depth chart, had some extenuating circumstances...

An off-the-field issue was cited as his reason for leaving, but that didn't stop the speculation.
You're right OBP, & I totally forgot that there was a mention of off field issues when I wrote that, but now that you said it, it jogged my memory. Well, in that case, it would appear, on the surface at least, that the events could be connected..

I have zero tolerance for anybody that preys on a woman. Taking advantage of someone that's intoxicated or impaired needs to be called out for what it is. I really hope this story doesn't get legs.

If you watch the video you can clearly see Kyle Dodson's name listed on the warrant.
You can also see another person's name on the warrant in that picture as well, sadly. Why they would include a picture of the warrant is beyond me.

Was told that a "potential recruit" was also implicated in the alleged incident. He did not end up signing with Ohio State
When someone shows you who they are believe them! In other words piss a good friend off and see what they really think about you.
TOS (Scout) board is saying Spence? Also saying only 1 was implicated as having done anything wrong. Hopefully that was Pittman.
So potentially Spence,Dodson,Pittman wow.

I know we all really want to know the specifics and who was involved but let's stop throwing names out there until the facts come out. Obviously Dodson and Pittman look implicated but I have seen nothing that should warrant Spence being brought up. I just don't like to see kids get mud slung on them when they don't deserve it. Lets just wait til we get more info.
I agree. I shouldn't have shared anyone else's name I saw mentioned. We all know how much damage even an erroneous mention can do. I apologize.
this happened in october? and reported in november? how/why is it coming out now?
That is pretty typical in these type of cases the victim are hesitant about coming out with it.

Pittman is gone and Dodsons name was on the report. That is the only facts known so far. Anything else is speculation.
A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men
That was the most unprofessional piece of journalism I have ever seen. That is absolutely appalling that they use a picture with Kyle Dodson's name on the report.
Edit: To clarify: if there are three players allegedly involved, they essentially just only told one of the names while keeping the anonymity of the other two (we can guess Pittman but my point stands).
Also, lets try not to speculate or guess who the third potential player might be. It is very disrespectful to that player and is not to be taken lightly. As a 20 year old kid, how horrible would it to be to hear that fans of the university that you have decided to spend the next four years of your life, are guessing that you are the potential accomplice in a rape accusation. Show some class Buckeye Nation and let the truth unfold.
This absolutely sucks!!
SCOTTC.
Modern day journalism at it's worst.
ABC6 stands by its reporting apparently, even though they pulled the original report from the website.
Wow..
I guess this would explain Pittman's "off the field issues" if he was in fact involved....
I hate hearing stories like this.
The only thing I hate more than stories like this is all the speculation until the truth comes out. I don't just mean on here, but also in the media.
Only matter of time before eSECpn runs this story.
Tomorrow
