Yep, they're having a fun time in Ohio State land.

The Dispatch reported Saturday that title records showed Gibson obtained the vehicle, which had less than 14,000 miles, for zero dollars.

The newspaper reported yesterday that an older title showed Gibson paid $13,700 for the car.

The resultant outcry from OSU defenders was swift and shrill.

The Dispatch’s oversight of the original title gave rise to a movement that the entire story from Saturday -- which detailed between 40 and 50 vehicle sales by one person at two dealerships, all to OSU athletes -- should be discredited.

It helps generate interest and discussion to provide a little snippet of the article.  IMO.

Now OSU will use this single reporting error as proof of media persecution.  Inaccuracies and unfounded rumors create an opportunity for buckeyes to paint themselves as victims.
