They obviously had no historic connection to the use of the name.

You obviously have continued to show your pleasure at supporting OHio State under ever psuedonym you have ever used and the poster above is right. You are just trying to distract from the issue.....you can keep putting historical stuff up here from days when branding did not matter as muchand it is still wrong to refer to them as OHIO....they are state. Indiana is in Bloomington ISU is in Terra Haute. Michigan is in Ann Arbor and State is in Lansing. Most states do not have a Bully located near the state house beating up on every other institutionin the state.\
IUPUI was never given permission to have residence life or dorms on campus for fear that their proximity to the state house would give them the same advantages as tO$U has in Columbus. The board at IU and PU constantly guards and keeps IUPUI in a second citizen mode because of lessons learned from COw town.
