Did anyone else see this in the daily today. Mike Holder purchased new mattresses for the athletes. The new ones are 54" x 96", a king size in only 80" long. They stated this didn't violate any NCAA rules. Isn't that showing favoritism to athletes? I know my kid (a non-athlete) would have liked that size bged in his dorm. Also, who'is buying the bedding for this special sized bed. Again I had to but that stuff for my kid. Just wanting to know if I read too much into it.

giving OSU access to T. Boone money may be the one thing that brings back the death penalty.
you know give em enough rope and they hang themselves.

The CEO of Simmons is an aggie grad (wonder if you get a tax credit for that like when hiring welfare folk) and he donated them.
Even then, I know the NCAA no longer allows athlete-only dorms so how do you buy them for only athletes and not the rest of the residents?

Probably.

As much as the NCAA is despised around here right now, you'd think no one would be trying to nitpick another program to death.

Tom Joad was hired to tie the mattresses to the roof of his car and deliver them to the aggies.

Holder and the the pukes are spending money just like lottery-winning trailer trash.

How do you get a 54"x96" mattress in a college dorm room?

They made the doorways bigger, as mandated by T. Boone.

It does seem that osu is pushing the line on this issue but they probably are just pulling a page out of the USC playbook.

They had to get new matresses, the others had too many tear stains from home losses La Tech.

They got new mattresses because that's what they mean when they say
A Team on the Rise . . . .(every morning after a good sleep).
