Amen Bulliever!  Heaven forbid there's news that we could read in the paper which makes us feel good about our local University!  It's like only writing home from college to tell your family you bombed a test or were arrested!

Ohio State gets another good report card

Bulliever, we don't have to do a search to find out how deficient our coverage is.  We only have to search FOR coverage.

Even though it is basketball scholarships they are losing we won't ruin the fun for a certain "news organization" that loves "bad news".....
