    OSU's Dez Bryant ruled ineligible

    By Brandon Chatmon Staff Writer [email protected]

    Published: October 7, 2009

    STILLWATER — Oklahoma State receiver Dez Bryant has been ruled ineligible for a violation of NCAA bylaw 10.1, which is pertains to unethical conduct.

    Rice safety Travis Bradshaw, right, watches as Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant, left, runs downfield during the first half of an NCAA college football game in Stillwater, Okla., Saturday, Sept. 19, 2009. Oklahoma State defeated Rice 41-24.

    According to an OSU press release, Bryant failed to openly disclose the full details of his interaction with a former NFL player.

    “I made a mistake by not being entirely truthful when meeting with the NCAA,” Bryant said in a statement. “I sincerely regret my mistake and apologized to my teammates, coaches, OSU fans and the NCAA.”

    A returning All-American, Bryant is the Cowboys leading receiver with 17 catches for 323 yards and four touchdowns.

    “We are certainly disappointed,” OSU coach Mike Gundy said in a statement. “But we are moving forward as we would with any challenge during the season.”

    OSU has begun the process of applying to the NCAA on his behalf for reinstatement. The incident in question does not involve anyone associated with OSU including the football program, athletic department and donors.

    That player is rumored to be Deion Sanders (?)

  • College players arent allowed to interact with NFL players? Thats weird

    THIS SUCKS

  • Furrey makes a better safety than a WR

    also on RB what about Chester Taylor? When does his contract expire?

    Head or Gut?
  • Mr. TM Mr. T

    A decent complementary player, but he's 30. No thanks.

  • I still think that a Running Back is the last piece of the puzzle.

    Yes, a good running game is EXTREMELY useful. But you need to have your act together, as RB careers are notoriously short, and you don't want to burn out your primary RB while you're rebuilding, because then, when you finally are ready, you've got a closing window with that particular RB.

    Unless, of course, it's a deity like AP. Woe to you, O Earth and Sea, for the devil sends AP with wrath because he knows that time is short. LET HIM WHO HATH UNDERSTANDING RECKON THE NUMBER OF THE AP, for it is a composite number. His number is 10, 10, and 8.

    So unless it is worthy of an Iron Maiden song, don't draft a running back at the beginning of a rebuilding phase.

  • Lendale is one of those prima donnas who is ME first. Mangini won't want him. Plus he hates the whole state of Ohio.

    Although he may want to step on some more Terrible Towels.

  • The pick is Eric Berry. Hasn't been a safety THIS good since Sean Taylor.

  • BEST PLAYER AVAILABLE.... There is not one position on this team that cannot be drafted.. You could say center would not be drafted and that's about it.. tackles..left /right.. not much difference... we have a left..we need a right... nothing wrong with 2 stud tackles and a center all in the first round.WOW what a line that could be.. Not saying that's what we need or would draft..I am saying this team is terrible. BPA is the only way to go, We have not drafted a DE in the top 3 rounds in 7 years.. a bit overdue if you ask me..we have no playmakers at that spot. Journeyman and that's it.

    As for RB... i begged for AP.. i got abused on this board.. i begged for michael turner.. I got even more abuse.. I am all for a top RB.. Not sure who is out there..but there is usually 1 or 2 guys who can make it to the top..

    Free agents at seasons end I like: Mike Bell, Pierre Thomas, (one of these two will get resigned by the saints) Ronnie Brown (will get resigned by miami most likely) Harrison is a free agent.. we need to resign him, Lendale white... Chester taylor will be out there too but he is merely a short term fix due to his age.. P. Thomas, M. Bell followed by L White would be my order of preference of free agents.. after that forget it.
