Dotting the Lie
1986: Youngstown State, trying to boost morale to the economically
devastated region of northeast Ohio, hires Ohio State offensive assistant
Jim Tressel as head coach.
November 17, 1987: Ohio State fires head coach Earle Bruce after three
straight losses. Four days later, Bruce's final game as head coach is a win
in Ann Arbor over Michigan.
December 31, 1987: Arizona State head coach John Cooper is hired by Ohio
State to replace Bruce. Conventional wisdom says Cooper became the most
appealing candidate to Ohio State because of his victory over Michigan in
the Rose Bowl 364 days earlier.
Spring, 1988: Quarterback and Youngstown native Ray Issac arrives at
Youngstown State. Around this time, Tressel introduces Issac to Michael
Monus, chairman of the Board of Trustees at Youngstown State and CEO of the
drug store chain Phar-Mor. During their first meeting, Monus gives Issac 150
dollars, the first of what will become a habitual series of payments that
will total roughly $10,000.
December 21, 1991: Isaac quarterbacks Youngstown State to a 25-17 win over
Marshall in the I-AA National Championship Game.
July, 1992: Youngstown State chairman Michael Monus is indicted on fraud and
embezzlement charges related to cooking the books at his drug store chain,
Phar-Mor. The case would become known as one of the largest cases of
corporate fraud in U.S. history. During the course of the investigation,
Monus's relationship with Ray Isaac is brought to light. Tressel says he has
no knowledge of Monus's payments to Isaac.
January, 1994: The NCAA delivers a notice of allegations to Youngstown State
. Tressel, along with Youngstown State Athletic Director Joe Malsimur and
Youngstown State President Leslie Cochran assure the NCAA that they will
conduct a thorough internal investigation into the matter. This turns out to
be a sham, as Malsimur never contacts Monus, and Tressel never speaks to
Isaac. In December 2003, Tressel would claim that he can't recall whether or
not he talked to Isaac about the allegations. Isaac says he never spoke to
anyone.
December 18, 1995: Michael Monus is convicted of one count of conspiracy,
two counts of bank fraud, five counts of wire fraud, two counts of mail
fraud, two counts of filing false income tax returns, 96 counts of
interstate transportation of stolen goods, and one count of obstruction of
justice. He is sentenced to 19 and a half years in prison. Shortly before
this, Monus and Isaac are both implicated in the bribing of a juror in Monus
's first trial, which resulted in a hung jury. During this time, Isaac
reaches out to Tressel for help, but Tressel distances himself, saying he
doesn't want to know anything and Isaac should simply cooperate with
authorities.
November 23, 1996: #21 Michigan, losers of their previous two games, beats
2nd-ranked and undefeated Ohio State 13-9 in Columbus, making this the third
time in four years that Michigan has ruined an undefeated season for the
Buckeyes. It is at this particular game in 1996 that Ohio State fans openly
rebel against John Cooper, hurling insults and obscenities at him as he
leaves the field.
March 4, 1998: During the course of Michael Monus's trial for jury tampering
, more rules violations are exposed at Youngstown State. The NCAA accuses
Youngstown State with lack of institutional control, one of the most serious
violations in the NCAA. The NCAA determines that Youngstown State's
internal investigation in 1994 was not thorough or in-depth.
February 28, 2000: The NCAA concludes its investigation, accepting
Youngstown State's self-imposed penalties, which include a reduction of two
scholarships in 2000-2001, 2001-2002, and 2002-2003. Because the NCAA's
statute of limitations expired in 1996, they cannot take away Youngstown
State's 1991 National Championship. The NCAA also chooses not to sanction
Tressel.
January 2, 2001: John Cooper is fired by Ohio State the day after losing to
South Carolina in the Outback Bowl. Cooper finishes his career at Ohio State
with a 3-8 bowl record and a 2-10-1 record against Michigan.
January 17, 2001: Ohio State hires Jim Tressel away from Youngstown State to
replace John Cooper as head coach. The next day, during halftime of the
Michigan-Ohio State basketball game, Tressel delivers his famous line that
has become Ohio State lore: "I can assure you that you will be proud of our
young people in the classroom, in the community and most especially in 310
days in Ann Arbor, Michigan."
January 20, 2001: Youngstown native Maurice Clarett, the star rusher for
Harding High School in Warren (14 miles northwest of Youngstown) and the #1
running back recruit in the country, commits to play for Jim Tressel at Ohio
State.
March 21, 2001: Ohio State cornerback Derek Ross is arrested on charges of
driving without a license and providing false information to police. He is
sentenced to 30 days in jail and suspended for the spring, but returns for
the season and leads the Big Ten in interceptions.
November 15, 2001: Ohio State quarterback Steve Bellisari is arrested for
driving drunk two days before OSU's game against Illinois. Tressel suspends
him, only to reinstate him and allow him to play in the team's bowl game.
November 24, 2001: Tressel makes good on the promise he made 10 months
earlier as Ohio State beats Michigan 26-20 in Ann Arbor. During the game,
Maurice Clarett takes an official visit to Michigan on UM's dime, and spends
the game on the Ohio State sideline cheering for the Buckeyes.
March 2, 2002: Ohio State tight end Redgie Arden is arrested for drunk
driving. He spends three days in jail and is suspended from spring practices
. Tressel reinstates him before the season and he plays in 11 games in 2002.
April 27, 2002: Ohio State linebacker Marco Cooper is arrested for felony
drug abuse and carrying a concealed weapon. In November, he pleads out and
is put on probation.
July 26, 2002: Ohio State fullback Branden Joe is discovered asleep in his
car on a highway ramp near Ohio State's campus. He refuses a breathalyzer
test, and is suspended for three weeks of preseason camp, along with the
first game of the 2002 season.
July 29, 2002: Ohio State wide receiver Angelo Chattams is suspected of
being involved in a theft, but prosecutors allow him to enter a program for
first-time offenders and avoid a criminal charge. He is excused from the
team, but never suspended.
August 17, 2002: Ohio State defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock is arrested for
underage drinking. He is suspended for three weeks of offseason workouts,
but is not suspended for any games.
August 24, 2002: Ohio State wide receiver Chris Vance is arrested for
underage drinking. He is held out of the first two games, and goes on to be
Ohio State's 4th leading receiver in the 2002 season.
October 13, 2002: Ohio State linebacker Fred Pagac, Jr. is arrested for
persistant disorderly conduct. Arrested at 3:45 AM, police say he was
intoxicated and had a role in a fight involving two women, and did not stop
fighting when ordered by police. He is suspended for one game, and is
allowed to play in the National Championship Game against Miami in January.
October 30, 2002: Ohio State long snapper Kurt Wilhelm is arrested for
felonious assault. He is held out of Ohio State's game against Penn State.
April, 2003: Maurice Clarett files a report stating that a car he borrowed
from a local dealership was broken into and thousands of dollars in cash,
CDs, stereo equipment, and clothing was stolen. Clarett calls the police
from a phone in Jim Tressel's office. He is later charged with lying about
the value of the items and falsification of a police report. He pleads
guilty, is ordered to pay a fine, and does no jail time.
May, 2003: Ohio State cornerback/receiver Chris Gamble and nine other
players are ruled ineligible for signing autographs at a convention, during
which they took an hourly salary.
June, 2003: Ohio State tight end Redgie Arden pleads innocent to his second
drunk driving charge in 15 months.
Fall, 2003: The NCAA begins an investigation at Ohio State amid allegations
of academic fraud and ineligibility. The investigation revolves around
Maurice Clarett, and a teacher admits that Clarett received preferential
treatment. The teacher is fired, and Clarett is found to be in violation of
14 conduct bylaws, two violations of receiving extra benefits because he is
an athlete. The investigation also discovers that the Monte Carlo Clarett is
driving was a loaner from a used-car lot. To make things worse, and forcing
Ohio State's hand, is the fact that Clarett was regularly receiving
benefits from Youngstown acquaintance Bobby Dellimuti. Dellimuti provided
Clarett with 500 dollars in cash, and paid for thousands of dollars worth in
cell phone bills for Clarett. Ohio State suspends him for the entire 2003
season. It is later revealed that Jim Tressel knew Dellimuti and knew who he
was before Clarett's freshman season in 2002.
October 27, 2003: Ohio State tight end Louis Irizarry is arrested on three
counts of first-degree misdemeanor assault. He is suspended two days later,
and is found guilty of one count of assault, one count of negligent assault,
and one count of disorderly conduct. He is put on probation, and is listed
as second on the depth chart at tight end on Ohio State's spring 2004 roster.
November 16, 2003: Ohio State wide receiver Santonio Holmes and quarterback
Troy Smith are arrested six days before the Michigan game on charges of
misdemeanor disorderly conduct after a fight on campus in the early morning
hours following Ohio State's win over Purdue. Holmes is held out of the
starting lineup against Michigan, but plays the majority of the game and
catches two touchdowns.
April, 2004: Ohio State fullback Branden Joe is cited for a misdemeanor open
container violation, his second alcohol-related offense.
May 1, 2004: Ohio State tight end Louis Irizarry and cornerback Ira Guilford
are arrested and charged with robbery after a student is assaulted and his
wallet is stolen at 3 AM. They both plead innocent, and Guilford is released
on bond, while Irizarry is held until the determination can be made whether
or not he violated his probation from his October 2003 conviction.
May 5, 2004: Ohio State punter A.J. Trapasso is charged with underage
drinking.
May 17, 2004: Ohio State punter A.J. Trapasso is arrested for underage
drinking for the second time in 12 days.

trespassing after police pull him over and discover he has been banned from
the campus of Ohio State.
October 23, 2004: Ohio State running back Lydell Ross is arrested for
attempting to pass fake money to a woman at a gentlemen's club.
November 9, 2004: Maurice Clarett blows the whistle on Ohio State,
attempting to expose all of the alleged corruption going on at his former
school. He claims he "took the fall" during the 2003 investigation into his
academics at Ohio State, and is now trying to clear his name. Clarett says
that Jim Tressel arranged for Clarett to have access to several loaner
vehicles, and that Tressel's brother Dick set up lucrative jobs that Clarett
did not have to show up to. He also says that members of Tressel's staff
introduced Clarett to boosters who provided him with cash benefits based on
his performance on the field. Clarett says he would have been ineligible for
the 2002 season, but that the Ohio State coaching staff set him up with an
academic advisor whose only goal was to keep him eligible. He claims the
academic advisor put him in Independent Study courses with hand-picked
teachers who would pass him regardless of attendance. His allegations are
corroborated by former Ohio State linebacker Marco Cooper. Cooper, who was
kicked off the team because of multiple drug-related arrests, says he too
was set up with fraudulent jobs and was provided with cars in exchange for
signed memorabilia. Clarett says he is blowing the whistle on Ohio State
because he feels they "blackballed" him from the university after suspending
him for the 2003 season.
October 12, 2004: Louis Irizarry is sentenced to three years in prison.
December 20, 2004: Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith is suspended for the
Alamo Bowl and the 2005 season opener for accepting $500 from a booster.

felony counts of second-degree lewd and lascivious conduct involving a 12
year old girl. Tressel allows Dukes to travel with the team to the Alamo
Bowl in San Antonio, and the charges are later dropped when the parents
refuse to let their daughter testify in court.
February 16, 2005: The NCAA reprimands Ohio State offensive line coach Jim
Bollman for trying to set up a recruit with a car, a loan, and a tutor. Jim
Tressel is also reprimanded because Bollman is his subordinate.

trafficking. He is suspended.

for smoking marijuana outside a dorm.
May 21, 2005: Ohio State lineman Tim Schafer is charged with disorderly
conduct after police had to break up two fights between Schafer and another
man. Both men were bloody and smelled of alcohol.
July 20, 2005: Ohio State athletic officials investigate a possible second
NCAA rules violation by quarterback Troy Smith. Smith attended a
quarterbacks camp run by Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair, but
because Ohio State runs on quarters instead of semesters, Smith may have
missed class to attend, which would be an NCAA violation. Jim Tressel
declines comment, saying the university's compliance department has not
finished its inquiry.
December 6, 2005: Police say that Ohio State linebacker A.J. Hawk and center
Nick Mangold reported a burglary at their apartment following their win
over Michigan. According to the police report, the robbery took place
sometime between 6:00 PM on November 22 and 8:00 PM on November 23rd. Hawk
and Mangold tell police that $3000 in cash, $1425 in movies, two laptop
computers, a $500 Gucci watch, and $750 worth of PlayStation and X-Box
equipment was stolen. Police were not told about the crime until November 28.
December 22, 2005: Ohio State offensive lineman Andree Tyree is suspended
from the Fiesta Bowl for a violation of team rules. It is later revealed
that Tyree failed his third drug test.
March 7, 2006: Former Ohio State kicker Jonathan Skeete returns to the team

felon, he is readmitted to the university and reinstated to the football
team.
April 2, 2006: Ohio State offensive lineman Alex Boone is arrested after

Tressel says that Boone will not be suspended for any practices or games.

driving with a suspended license.
September 24, 2007: Ohio State quarterback Antonio Henton is arrested for
soliciting a prostitute.

Sarniak in October 2006 when he crashed his car into a utility pole
following the Jeannette-Catholic Central football game. Sarniak smelled of
alcohol, but was not taken into custody. Though cleared of the bribery
accusations, Sarniak has a documented history of providing Pittsburgh
Steelers football tickets and other gifts to police officers in Jeannette.

September 9, 2009: It is discovered that violations were committed during
Ohio State's recruitment of quarterback Terrelle Pryor. Pryor's official
visit to Ohio State for the game against Wisconsin in 2007 came with a
discounted hotel rate. The other violation involves former Ohio State
quarterback Troy Smith working at an Ohio State football camp in the summer
of 2007, during which time Smith encourages Pryor to pick Ohio State. As a
result of the hotel violation, Pryor is quietly ruled ineligible in August
2009 until he repays $158. Ohio State files a request to the NCAA to
reinstate Pryor on August 21, and he regains his eligibility in time for the
season opener on August 30.
April 2, 2010, 2:32 PM: Jim Tressel receives an email from Chris Cicero, a
Columbus attorney. Cicero informs Tressel that several players have been
selling signed items to tattoo parlor owner Edward Rife, who is under heavy
investigation from the authorities on suspicion of drug trafficking. Rife

will "get on it ASAP."
April 16, 2010, 9:43 AM: Cicero emails Tressel again, giving details of

being sold.
April 16, 2010, 11:20 AM: Tressel responds to Cicero once more: "I hear you!
! It is unbelievable!! Thanks for your help keep me posted as to what I need
to do if anything. I will keep pounding these kids hoping they grow up. jt"
April 16, 2010, 2:26 PM: Cicero recommends that Tressel ban his players from

The authorities, obviously unaware of any NCAA implications, are simply
inquiring as to whether or not the items may have been stolen. The Ohio
State athletic department is notified of this the next day.
December 9, 2010: Jim Tressel is informed that federal officials know about
the items. Tressel still does not inform his superiors of his email

suspension will be increased to five.
March 25, 2011: It is revealed that Jim Tressel in fact didn't keep the
email correspondence with Chris Cicero all to himself. He forwarded the

gifts to police officers, and friend and mentor of Terrelle Pryor from Pryor
's days as the #1 recruit in the nation at Jeannette High School.
April 25, 2011: The NCAA delivers a notice of allegations to Ohio State and
Tressel, accusing Tressel of failing to "deport himself in accordance with
the honesty and integrity normally associated with the conduct and
administration of intercollegiate athletics as required by NCAA legislation
and violated ethical-conduct legislation when he failed to report
information concerning violations of NCAA legislation and permitted football
student-athletes to participate in intercollegiate athletics competition
while ineligible."
May 1, 2011: Ohio State linebacker Dorian Bell is suspended for the entire

May 25, 2011: Former Ohio State receiver Ray Small tells the Ohio State
student newspaper that he sold items for cash during his time at Ohio State,

newspaper twisted his words.
May 27, 2011: Ohio State announces that it will not disclose the
correspondence between Jim Tressel and the Jeannette businessman, Ted
Sarniak.
=================================================================
Nothing Ohio State has accomplished in the last ten years is valid anymore.
From Clarett, to Smith, to Pryor, and all the others in between, with the
cars and the cash and the discounts and the cutting of corners, Ohio State
is essentially an SEC school operating in the Midwest. Tressel is a proven,
documented cheater, and if the NCAA has any balls at all, they will slap him
with a show-cause order, blackballing him from ever coaching again. He has
successfully manipulated his public perception so he comes across as a
righteous, homely, ethically pure gentleman, when the reality is he's
basically a gangster, willing to do whatever it takes to win, and turning a
blind eye toward the corruption that he himself endorses. He distanced
himself from Ray Isaac at Youngstown when the NCAA came calling. He
distanced himself from Maurice Clarett while simultaneously shredding
Clarett's credibility when he tried to destroy Ohio State. If some injustice
is committed and he somehow survives this latest storm, he will distance
himself from Terrelle Pryor and his friends, too.
Tressel entered into a perfect marriage with Ohio State back in the winter
of 2001. A native son with enormous success at a lower level, but more than
ready to take the next step. And a school so desperate to reverse their
fortunes in that final game in late November, so eager to erase the sour
taste of 2-10-1 from their mouths, willing to sell their souls at all costs
if it means claiming dominance over "That School Up North." That is the
culture of Ohio State football. The means don't matter whatsoever. As long
as the end is a victory over Michigan, they will tolerate anything that
comes their way. And now they deserve the darkest of fates. They knew what
they were getting in Tressel: a faux-superior thug, who shares the win at
all costs mentality of his followers. They are essentially a hostile regime,
with Tressel leading the masses in "Death to Michigan" chants. And any
dissenters, anyone who dares speak out against the regime - Kirk Herbstreit,
Bruce Hooley, Mark Titus, Ray Small - is thrown to the wolves, their
credibility and character put through the meat grinder by the bloodthirsty
masses. The brainwashed followers, from the dusty streets of Youngstown to
the outskirts of Cincinnati, from the shores of Lake Erie and Glenville High
School to the backwoods of Westerville, and Centerville, and the epicenter
in Columbus, they all march in lockstep as Senator Tressel commands them.
And eventually, he will lead them off the cliff, and they will follow him
without question, even it means their own destruction.
