You are correct. He just collects as a hobby. He has like 15 #1 NGC rated collections. They would all be worth the same as a brand new 1oz gold eagle if the world economy collapsed.

"premium" is the dealer's markup. You won't find very much gold without a markup. It's usually a flat fee over spot

I don't doubt there was some contact of "what would you want, what would we need to do, blah blah blah". I still don't think it was a done deal until this past weekend. Especially since from what I hear some of the negotiations were pretty heated (academic standards, staff fund, etc)

I doubt it was Earle. Earle said many times that there was 0 contact between Urban and anyone from OSU before last weekend. I think the timeline that Nevada gave was more or less the timeline that whatever mega booster or trustee knew of that the admins and BOT wanted. I honestly do not believe Urban was a done deal until this past weekend, especially with the comments that Earle was making on 610 this morning. If Urban said "no thanks" last weekend or anytime, yesterday still would have been the announcement.

Both. I typically just buy American Eagles and a bit of Bullion. Your newer American Eagles will just be weight+premium. My dad on the other hand is a collector and has some pretty amazing sets.

Nevada was wrong though. He was announced last night in a press conference. Not at the halftime of the OSU-Duke game. I also thought I heard something about Urban being somewhere to interview staff and not even being at the game tonight.

Archie has stated in the past he has NO intentions of ever becoming AD. His gig is fucking SWEET. He gets paid big bucks to do nothing but be Archie.

The question about Tressel is thouugh what happens if he is under contract before a show cause is handed down

USC is unranked because of sanctions. Its not part of the sanctions, but they arent even eligible for the conference title

They all cost about the same as medvet. Diley may be slightly cheaper

They are open for LEO's 2 Monday's per month I think ( it may be 3)

That's odd.... Vance's hasn't been open on a Monday in 33 years :gabe:

I personally would like to go back to this http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT8c5KX1abwDPwVjHY7t6xMNuulr-ZB2ePg88BiINznH6mtNZI_U0qhLwOD

I'm a no go this saturday.

winning 2 NC in 3 years will up the stress level tremendously. Earle said that he had dinner with Urban the night before the Alabama game in 2009 and that Urban was a wreck because he knew he was going to lose that game. I think he was having anxiety and panic attacks.

BTW this is all one giant public relations clusterfuck

Except they haven't reported that http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/sports/2011/11/23/meyer-to-coach-ohio-state.html Basically just says that they are going to sit down and fianlize things aka signing a deal

Dispatch says a deal has not been reached

lol, no he hasn't. A deal hasn't even been reached

I don't think he does anything until after his dad's funeral.

I don't believe any of that.
