Possible suspension? Some WR's maybe not ready?

No so hot on saying a player is high maintenance

 

What else would you call a player who is high maintenance besides "high maintenance"?...

 

...and what is wrong with a player who is "high maintenance" finding out that is what his coach thinks about him?

 

When Mitch Krenk and one of his buddies were struggling to stay on the team in their early years, they decided that they couldn't afford to be "high maintenance" and in fact had to be "no maintenance" unless the staff figured that they just weren't worth the effort. Both stayed on the team and saw playing time.

What else would you call a high maintenance player? How about nothing while a reporter is there with the intent of writing about the meeting.

 

 

Exactly.

What did Meyer say?

He announced the suspension of his players at B10 media days within minutes after having it whispered in his ear by someone in the AD dept. right before he was to give an interview.

 

Meyer intentionally announced the suspensions in front of a gathering of media with the goal of said information being immediately disseminated to the public.

 

The Portland reporter sat in on a Tuesday meeting, waited two days to publish his article, admitted he thought Riley was going to announce the suspensions before his article was published and Riley admitted he didn't want the suspension announcement to come out the way it did. Clearly, a communication error between coach and reporter.

 

The only real, valid comparison between these two scenarios is that players were suspended. Several other factors are incomparable.

I think he had to know earlier though, his players told Sharp and Benning at B1G media days that they new about Bosa for awhile.

Pointless response, just because it did not come out identical does not make the two incomparable. Riley was going to announce them as well and you want to quibble over timeline. :hmmph The point is, that this whole 5 page thread is pointless and downright silly, but carry on about it further if you like. :dunno

You call my response pointless, but, then respond with an even more pointless retort arguing the relevance of the thread? Apparently, hypocrisy escapes you.

 

And your argument regarding the two cases is laughable. The timeline is everything, as in the variables surrounding it. If you don't see that, I can't explain it to you any better.

 

Now, if you find the thread uninteresting, move along. Telling everyone a thread is pointless to boost your own ego is useless and nobody cares. No one is forcing you to read the thread.

That's... not how it happened. They'd known for at least a month about the suspensions. It was talked about on the ESPN podcast by Ivan Maisel and Adam Rittenberg.

So Urban announced the suspensions after the media was already talking about it, just as Riley did? Weird

Not exactly. It was known inside the OSU athletic department for at least a month, but had started to leak to message boards earlier that week.

They knew they would likely happen but they did not become official until the opening day of Big10 media days.
