Ohio Lawmakers want the Buckeyes' 2010 wins back.
Lawmakers in Ohio have brought forth a resolution petitioning the NCAA to reinstate Ohio State's wins from the 2010 season that were vacated due to players receiving improper benefits as part of the "Tattoogate" scandal, the Columbus Dispatch reports.
Ohio State vacated 12 wins from the 2010 season after Terrelle Pryor, Boom Herron, DeVier Posey, Mike Adams and Solomon Thomas were found to have exchanged memorabilia in return for tattoos, improperly profiting off of their name image and likeness.
State Rep. Brian Stewart, who is sponsoring the resolution, says that vacated wins unfairly hurt players and coaches that had nothing to do with the scandal, and points out that the NCAA has recently radically altered its rules regarding player name, image and likeness.
