No problem! About thirty minutes after the conclusion of the game, head towards the east exits and right where Crisler and the Stadium conjoin is where the players come out. My little brother was able to meet basically the whole team including Gary, Winovich, Patterson, Higdon and many more.
I went with my little brother after the game to get player's autographs. Karan was there and he stated he would be playing next week. Sounds like nothing too serious.
Thanks! Even though I am a diehard Michigan fan this really goes beyond the rivalry. This whole incident sets a bad precedent for public employees in Ohio.
Thanks for the feedback. While watching the presser also came to the conclusion that Drake was thinking what did I get myself into when I took this job. To be honest, I am surprised he hasn't decided to resign with dignity.
I hate to threadjack as a newbie to MGoBlog, but I am up in the middle of the night because this whole Urban Meyer situation is truly troubling me. Hoping to get honest, critical feedback on a letter I may consider writing and sending to the President of Ohio State. I figured this might be the place to do this. And obviously with 0 points I can't start a new post. Feel free to nuke if this doesn't belong here.
Here it is:
Dear Dr. Michael V. Drake,
As a public school educator in Northwest Ohio, I have become alarmed by many of the allegations and findings from the recent Independent Investigation into the conduct of Urban Meyer. In particular, most concerning to me is the Investigation's finding that Coach Meyer likely adjusted his cell phone's setting so that "text messages older than one year would be deleted."
Consider this hypothetical scenario and you will see why I am so deeply troubled. A public school employee for the State of Ohio hears about one of their students being abused by their father through email. For some reason or another, the public school employee does not believe it and does not report it in writing to administration. This person, however, has been engaged in emails about this student that demonstrate that they were aware of the situation. It comes to a point two years later that there is an investigation into this matter. When the public school employee hears about the potential investigation, they quickly delete all emails from two years ago and beyond. Should there not be an additional investigation into the content of those emails? Should there not be severe punishment administered for this state of Ohio public employee?
I have had former students of mine attend Ohio State University and I supported them in their decisions to pursue their dreams at OSU. In the future, however, I will no longer recommend that they consider your university. I am afraid that one of my former students may become involved in a domestic violence situation on campus and future investigations will not be handled properly. More specifically, I am afraid that Ohio State University employees in positions of authority will be allowed to delete emails or text messages from their University-issued, tax-payer funded computers or phones to cover up their true knowledge of events. In turn, it seems that the University's administrative body will not conduct thorough investigations to achieve justice for victims.
The integrity of Ohio State University, its Board of Trustees, and yourself has been widely questioned. Personally, I think its justified. I conclude with these questions: Why are you not conducting an investigation into the text messages of Coach Meyer between the years 2011-2017? How can educators feel safe sending our students to OSU if no investigation into these texts are conducted now and in future similar situations? Finally, what do you want your legacy to be?

Well, I guess we have our future commander of "Space Force." Glad he's a Wolverine.
Ignorance is truly bliss, and nowhere else on the planet is ignorance as prevalent as it is around Columbus.
