Check out Coach Fickell's reaction to a very direct question at his press conference at about the 3:38 mark of the video.

He said he didn't have blinders on. I'll have to agree, he would have had had to have a blindfold on to not see TP driving a different car every other week. This guy is having to lie right out of the gate. O$U needs to get a coach that is completely detached from it's corrupt program.

"I was not informed of any information until it became public knowledge".

He would make a good politician. I guess it depends on what your definition of the word "informed" is.

Fickle is a temporary puppet for tOSU. His press conference certainly didn't present him as a great leader. It was almost high schoolish in his "One" comments and how tOSU is the bigger picture. I could be wrong but I see him as a short term solution until the dust settles.

Based on that video he has branded himself as either a liar or an idiot.

Why can't he be both?

Good point, he's obviously both.

Anybody want to do a photoshop with his picture from the press conference with the text "Obviously liar is obviously an idiot?

Dude is in no win situation. There's no right answer to that question, only wrong ones. One just happens to be safer than the others. By saying he doesn't know people paint him as either a liar or ignorant (or both). If he said he did know then what? He would then be Sweater (or worse) looking for another job.

Cowherd blew this guy up yesterday for those comments. Then he made mention of the crazy train in Columbus sending him hate mail.

Given all that seems to have gone on in Columbus, he has just painted himself into a very, very tight corner where just one instance someone being able to prove he had an idea of something is going to cause him and OSU a lot of trouble.

That's exactly the point, he should never have been in this situation to begin with. I think that the perception of osu from the outside is that the program was corrupt from top to bottom so their only option was to go outside for a new coach - temp or no. I know that its a lousy option but the consequences of having to fire a second coach in only a few months is absolutely cringe worthy.
