Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 385023, member: 2585"] Well sure, no one's perfect... me included. The difference is that these guys had very public ethical missteps. I'm saying the [I]perception[/I] would be bad. I don't personally know any of these guys - most of us are going off of what we hear and know. JB's perception at the time took a hit - but he's been clean (unless you count the Fine mess, but that's another post) since. These guys are coming off of messy firings. I wouldn't say Petrino's mistake was trying to save face or covering up. What he did was pretty unethical by any stretch. Tressel could have come clean and didn't. I don't think he got fired for not catching the infraction - but for lying to the NCAA. Lying to the governing body of your sport has to be considered unethical. People get fired all the time for things like that. OK, back to the other site I was er, browsing. [/QUOTE]
