New Ohio State president wants changes
Ohio State has a new president, and he’s a zero tolerance kind of guy.
That’s all well and good. Athletes who stray too far from behavioral norms can and should be punished, particularly when the behavior devolves into criminal action.
However, Gordon Gee is the guy who once disbanded the sports program at Vanderbilt for being too out of whack with the rest of the university. Hmm, there’s a problem with a leg, so let’s just whack it off instead of fixing it for the good of the rest of the body.
Can you see that going over at Ohio State? Athletics are big at Ohio State, and I don’t see students or alumni going along with something that extreme. People get emotional over sports, and sports can be an integral part of the overall college experience.
I know. I went to a college that didn’t have a football team. Drinking was very popular there.
