Tressel

[gbs20]

This is a fantasy land thread that had to have originated from a bar conversation over Tressel tortellini at the MVR.  If Tressel becomes President at OSU Ill turn in my three OSU diplomas.  I dont believe a university president has to have a Ph.D in this day and age but the fact that Tressel was fired from OSU for NCAA violations will disqualify him. The handling of the recent sexual assault case would raise eyebrows especially at OSU. Besides , why would he even want that job. He is the Teflon King here and its a snake pit in Columbus.

Actually heard it from a buckeye fan out of Columbus.  I know it's a technicality, but Tressel resigned at OSU, not fired.  Two reasons to go.  1. Money, 2 better place to run for Governor/Senator

  Tressel has no shot to be considered at OSU President.   Right or wrong, his resignation as football coach will end any speculation.   As for his resigning, he would have been fired had he not resigned.

 No question he has done a great job as YSU President.  But he has not held his Athletic Director accountable.   His loyalty to Ron Strollo is a weakness.  Tressel knows the football program is complete disarray, men's basketball has been a disaster forever.

JT just signed an extension to keep him at YSU through June 2021.

I guess that puts that rumor to rest, great news for YSU

Realisticaly the tennis coaching mess put whatever chance JT had at going back to OSU to rest a couple weeks ago.  Clear now, he will retire from YSU.
