Did Jonathan Baldwin think he was in a Rat Pack movie or something?

…charged with indecent assault for allegedly slapping then groping the behind of a female student, but campus officials aren’t commenting on the charges.

A criminal complaint obtained by The Associated Press shows 19-year-old Jonathan Baldwin is charged with indecent assault, harassment and disorderly conduct. Campus police say the woman complained of the alleged assault April 18 and charges were filed the next day. Baldwin faces a preliminary hearing May 27.

That was good for 4 points in the Fulmer Cup — at this time. If this gets resolved, I think Baldwin should be required to wear this t-shirt for the first week of practice in August.





Bad news all around for Pitt. Hope JB gets his act togather. Anyone else hear Tom Lemming on a college football show [about a week ago] claim that tOSU will get five commits from the Pittsburgh area???? ouch!!

Based on the second hand rumors out there, Baldwin will probably be cleared to play. We had a similar situation a few years back.

Somebody needs to get Baldwin Chevy’s old “booty patrol” tshirt.

Might as well suspend him for the season. As long as stull is the qb it wouldnt matter if Jerry Rice was out there.

If true, Baldwin was way out of bounds. The media will have a field day with this story far into the forthcoming season. May I suggest they (and we “Bloggers” move on to some grid news. Rev. george mehaffey Columbus, Ohio)

Joel: I don’t know what Ohio State’s usual take from the area is, but I have a feeling their current recruiting here is a result of the eastern-most Big Eleven team. I also can’t help but think Wannstedt is the subject of caricature by Big Eleven recruiters and the picture is not complimentary. They’ve dug up Chicago & Miami stories and put them with new stories here.

Tony, no question the move of ups to the little- 10 open the door to tOSU. Rich Rod now has Michigan to sell instead of WV and not to forget ups. That will put a lot of pressure on Wanny.

Even if this is correct, it is an incredibly boorish and crude act. I think you are treating this too lightly. If it was my sister, I would want to see Mr. Baldwin punished in some meaningful way. He certainly needs to be taught a lesson about respect for others. Being suspended for the first two games of the season sounds about right to me.

I don’t doubt Wannstedt as a recruiter. He got guys coming off far worse records. The Chicago and Miami stuff is not going to convince a kid not to listen to Wannstedt’s charm. Remember, he was pretty solid in Miami before Ricky Williams quit…and who besides Ditka & Halas had winning records as Bears coaches.

“and who besides Ditka & Halas had winning records as Bears coaches.”

Interesting question.

Ralph Jones, Hunk Anderson, Luke Johnsos, Paddy Driscoll, and Lovie Smith are the answers. 7 coaches in total have had winning records with the Bears, six, including the ‘Stache, have not. Of the coaches with winning records, only Driscoll and Smith have failed to lead them to titles. Pretty successful franchise.

The Dolphins, on the other hand, I don’t understand. Why do people perceive Wanny as having failed there? 42-31 with two playoff appearances in parts of five seasons. Okay, that isn’t great, but its not bad. Of the 8 coaches in Dolphins history, only Shula, Johnson and Sparano are alongside Wanny with winning records. (Though Bates coached just seven games, so really maybe it should be 7 coaches ever.)

Wannstedt’s .575 winning percentage with Miami is second only to Sparano’s .688, which is so high because he has only coached there for one season and done a great job. Remains to be seen if he can keep it up.
