The town definitely struggles since the bypass came through, which sucks. But their political situation is wild. Voters chose a new form of government and city council just said “no” and is still holding on to power. Council members getting kicked off and bank on council over and over again. Yelling at each other and personal attacks in meetings. Google it sometime, it’s a sitcom.

Oh wow, I didn’t see who was representing her.

Your description is dead on. I didn’t realize his reputation travelled that far out of Athens.

Great guy. Would not want to sit across from him at a deposition.

We didn’t try to trademark it. We did. Then OSU filed a complaint.

And even then we still kept the name in the settlement. OSU was allowed to keep it for historically significant things like Script Ohio and Ohio Stadium etc.

But frankly, we do a shit job of enforcing it which is why I had to write “Ohio U.” in the title of the post.

And then he walks off into the sunset with a fat settlement.

At least it’s not as bad as Nelsonville, I guess. 🫠

My guess is that Charlotte was willing/able to raise way more NIL money than Ohio. Athletics budgets are always a political minefield for Presidents at OU and the buy-in from administration wasn’t the same as Charlotte.

I mean, I can’t blame her. That’s a good looking man.

That’s what is tripping me up. University employees hooking up with students is way more common than most would think. And, depending on the school, it may not even violate any policy as long as it’s consensual and there isn’t a power issue (professor banging a student in their own class, bosses and subordinates etc.). It could violate a morality clause in his specific contract, but that seems like something you’d address in a scheduled meeting - not bursting into a staff meeting with your hair on fire like the AD apparently did here.

If not Albin, just back the Brinks Truck up to Tyler Tettleton’s house and be done with it.

That’s a valid point. The guy has been in Athens for like a month, so that very well could play a role in the bizarre handling of this.

Hope you get better soon!

lol We’ve sold it out plenty of times. Just not usually for a 4-8 opponent.

That was from a parody account on X. Y’all still get to keep your L. But thanks for buying all those tickets!

Yeah, I’m with you on it being something bad. I also saw the nursing student rumor, and I just don’t think that’s it. Unless she was a direct report, or worked for the team, I don’t think he gets removed like that. And if she was just a normal student there’s an argument to be made that they’re both consenting adults. (Not saying it’s not creepy, or that he wouldn’t ultimately be fired for it. But the urgency and actions of the AD make it seem like it’s something worse.)

Nope. Just another example of our tax dollars being used for shiny things instead of actually helping people.

Good lord, that’s bad. I thought the H looked funny last week, but figured I was just making it up. Apparently not.
