There has to be a heading for this foto ... give me time to think of it, OK?

How proud the Board of Trustees and the Administration at Ohio State University must be, to have a president, who, because of his "conduct," cannot speak at a high school graduation. I wonder how all the catholic students at OSU feel. I am surprised they have not made a comment. I wonder how many football "recruits" are catholic. So does Meyer.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio State University's president has withdrawn as commencement speaker for a parochial high school after being reprimanded for making disparaging remarks about Notre Dame, Catholics and the Southeastern Conference.

Gordon Gee (ghee) had been scheduled to speak Saturday at the graduation ceremony for St. Francis DeSales High School in Columbus. Ohio State says Gee decided Monday not to attend to make sure the students and their accomplishments remain the focus of the event.

DeSales' principal says he received a ''heartfelt apology'' from Gee on Monday.

Last week, Gee apologized for his disparaging comments made in December after they were first reported by The Associated Press. He also apologized to the Big Ten conference for his ''hurtful remarks'' about some university athletic programs.

Ohio State trustees warn he could be fired for any more verbal gaffes.
