Why is this getting reposted? The date on the article is from 2016.....on April Fool's day.

It's really strange. I have a friend who went to UM for undergrad and OSU for grad school, and she posted this article today on Facebook thinking it was real. It must have started circulating again for some reason. Weird how the internet seems to have a mind of its own.

Nothing ever dies once it is on the internet. Years after it has been around, someone who has never seen it stumbles upon it and it is off and running again. Weirdest thing.

That's the worst thing about April Fools Day "satire" pieces (other than that they are now everywhere and very rarely funny): they resurface when it isn't April Fools Day and they suck up our time and brain cells in the process.

Regardless of date or source, does anybody believe for an instant that osu would change its primary colors?

"Olmsted noted that its success in collegiate ice croquet is diminished by any Ohio State use of its colors."

Can't argue with that logic.

For a minute I thought you were the OP. Upon investigation (scrolling up), I am relieved to discover that you are not.
