Lol...
* bonus Lol's for making it OT
October 16th, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
OP is in Ohio. Got excited about some local, insider info ;)
October 16th, 2018 at 5:14 PM ^
Yeah I think the main page of this very blog covered this. Click back and prove me wrong....
October 16th, 2018 at 5:29 PM ^
The main page (and a previous thread) stated that he was done with OSU football. Withdrawing from the school entirely is a new, if minor, detail.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:42 PM ^
His withdrawing from school was covered in the other thread.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:43 PM ^
Yes, this is a legit post. He's not just quitting football, he's leaving the entire school.
Says a lot about what the school itself meant to him . . . what little of it he actually ever saw.
October 16th, 2018 at 6:22 PM ^
I believe this is what sets apart Michigan from the "football factories". The latter attracts athletes with one main pitch - "We'll prepare you for the NFL" - with little emphasis on the long term benefits of a quality degree from a prestigious university. The smart H.S. athletes pick a school that will benefit them for the rest of their lives; especially post-football. I suppose it's fine for a player like Bosa to go with the football factory, as he has always been a sure-fire NFL high draft pick. But what about all the rest?
October 16th, 2018 at 5:54 PM ^
Not a minor detail. It means his move is permanent without regard to last-minute change of heart. In the way these things are followed as it pertains to The Game, this is actually a newsworthy nugget. Claiming otherwise suggests you knew this all along. You didn't. So, why challenge the preciseness of the report.
October 16th, 2018 at 6:46 PM ^
i guarantee you that if he wanted to play against us they’d let him suit up even if he didn’t attend a class or set foot on campus for a minute between now and the game.
all they care about is football; nobody goes there to play school and nobody in charge gives two shits about anything other than wins
October 16th, 2018 at 7:07 PM ^
Almost surely true, BUT withdrawing makes it “final”.
October 16th, 2018 at 7:30 PM ^
This info was in the link I posted this morning in the earlier thread, FWIW.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:14 PM ^
Posted eight spots below this one.
October 16th, 2018 at 7:25 PM ^
I didn’t see the “withdraw” part in the previous thread. I also hardly saw any Bosa info in that thread. It’s mostly about Gary.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
You serious Clark?
October 16th, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
lol you really thought this wasn’t posted already? And you labeled it OT. Yikes.
October 16th, 2018 at 9:20 PM ^
I'm okay with two "Bosa quits osu" threads in one day.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
Didn't feel like playing school anymore.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:50 PM ^
Is one a college drop out when they never really went to college anyway?
October 16th, 2018 at 6:05 PM ^
The question isn't that, the question is, did the school consider him a student outside of his identity as such and role for their benefit. Or was he just an investment opportunity in the school's financial stock as it relates to its life as an institution.
The fact is, millions of kids go to school and discover that it's not for them and drop out. Some have relevant skills to fall back on and make a productive life for themselves. Others keep searching. Either way, the institution moves on. Always remember, the institution lives without the feelings that those who matriculate through its hallways hold for it after graduation.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:50 PM ^
Did he ever play school?
October 16th, 2018 at 5:16 PM ^
The "OT" is *chef kisses fingers* perfecto.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:17 PM ^
There’s zero chance news this big isn’t on the board almost immediately. It hit twitter several hours ago, so just assume it’s already here...multiple times.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:21 PM ^
I'm sure he also picked THEEEEE ohio as academics were so important to him.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:22 PM ^
OFF TOPIC DOESNT MATTER
October 16th, 2018 at 5:27 PM ^
We landed on the moon!!
October 16th, 2018 at 5:33 PM ^
Thoughts and prayers for the OP.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:46 PM ^
OP is just fine, protected by a double-layer of webdev incompetence:
Months later OPs still don't have voting enabled, and even if they did it wouldn't matter since points are also still broken.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:39 PM ^
So, our suspicions are confirmed . . . they don't go there to play school. Only football.
If football is done, no point in hanging around.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
The team! The team! The team! Nope, lol.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
We are laughing.gif
October 16th, 2018 at 5:55 PM ^
Much like Cardale, he wasn’t there to play school.
October 16th, 2018 at 5:58 PM ^
Jeez, OSU won’t take no for an answer. How many times does he have to do this?
October 16th, 2018 at 5:58 PM ^
again??????!!!!!??????!!!!!!??????
October 16th, 2018 at 6:11 PM ^
Best of luck to him in the league, but I’m sure as hell not sorry that we don’t have to play him.
October 16th, 2018 at 6:22 PM ^
Please, how many of us would have stayed to finish school when were all but guaranteed a 30 million dollar payday??? C’mon. Says nothing about the school.
October 16th, 2018 at 6:35 PM ^
Well, I guess withdrawing is a better option than having to pay child support.
October 16th, 2018 at 9:25 PM ^
Not sure if people didn't get it or think it was funny.
I loved it fwiw!!
October 16th, 2018 at 10:02 PM ^
I was trying to fashion a similar joke but this was better than anything I could muster.
October 16th, 2018 at 7:13 PM ^
What’s the word on Rashan....playing this weekend or no..........
October 16th, 2018 at 9:57 PM ^
Go ask Harbaugh. He’ll tell you all about his injury report.
October 16th, 2018 at 7:25 PM ^
I don't post new threads here anymore. Why? Because the treatment OP is experiencing is quite common. Indeed, it is the norm. Too many people are more are more interested in tearing down other MgoMembers than in discussing football. In case you were wondering, yes, everyone is impressed with how smart you are when you attack other posters for not being as informed as you are about every tiny detail of every previous thread.
October 16th, 2018 at 8:45 PM ^
I hope he continues his laser like focus on education while he is rehabbing.
October 16th, 2018 at 10:10 PM ^
Meh, can't say I blame him for quitting school. It's not like he was getting a quality education.
October 16th, 2018 at 10:14 PM ^
He probably couldn't stand looking at Meyer after his repeated lies...
October 17th, 2018 at 5:28 AM ^
To be fair it was announced that the rehab is going to take 12 weeks. The specialist that did the surgery is in Philly and will do the recovery rehab for Bosa in Philly. Would you really risk $60 million for one bowl game or one possible play off game?
October 17th, 2018 at 8:06 AM ^
Ahhhh, the infamous double withdrawal.
