Jim Tressel Tenders Resignation
-
I guy I work with has a friend in the Athletic Department at OSU and he told me two weeks ago that this was going to happen, I expected to happen sooner though. Why resign on Memorial Day?

Why not??
This was probably the only outcome that could come from this.
Yes, the guy made a mistake....a big one, but he is still a fine man who has done much good. Time will lessen the stain.
With this action as remedy, my hope is OSU doesn't get hammered with sanctions, because the reason for the problem is gone. Any actions taken by the NCAA will now mostly impact innocent people.....players, coaches, fans.
No doubt something is going to happen...which is probably why this action was taken at this point.
I hope it isn't so sever the university and football program suffer for years to come.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
OSU's screwed.
-
This much we know...Tressel is through as OSU's Head Coach. What happens from this point forward is unknown. My concern is how severe sanctions may be & for how long the program will suffer. Regardless how severe the sanctions, OSU football & all associated with it have my support.
Jim Tressel & his Family will be in my prayers.

Everything I've read today leads to multiple heavy sanctions and OSU getting raked over the coals.

yeah he covered up their misdeeds. no misdeeds, no cover up. the whole thing stinks. couldn't there be a separate housing structure where athletes stayed for free but it was mandatory for them to be there and not off campus?
pryor is a dick because he sold sh.t for tattoos. different than paying rent. meanwhile he's probably been given everything to him since someone noticed he could throw the ball 60 yards.

Tressel didn't do anything that any other division 1 coach wouldn't have done and more than likely 99% have already done. He went down protecting his players the same way you or I would protecting our family, much respect to him for that.
Whatever happened to teaching? Is it in the best interest of an 18 year old kid to exploit and embarrass him?, or teach and punish in house as a family, that is what they go to college to do right? Learn?.. But it's more important for the NCAA to make sure they protect their brand at the expense of kids while making millions off them. Tressel did the absolute right thing and shame on the NCAA for not recognizing that.

Pretty sad that a tattoo parlor and NCAA rules that are absolutely completely IDIOTICALLY STUIPD executed a fine man and great coach who gave his all with class for 25 years. Representative of how distorted the values of this nation have become

just curious, how did all of you OSU homers feel about the carroll situation at USC?
lots of bruises and broken bones down here in southern ohio today with all of the fairweathers falling off of the bandwagon.

Yes I blame our nation for the fall of SMU and USC football too. I don't blame the players or coaches for being crooked, I blame the whole US!

Sorry for speaking way over you limited thinking head. What happened to Tressel, a great person, is representative in a small way what happened to our nation. We allow the war machine as I speak on this Memorial Day, to allow leaders to murder and kill with no consequence based on lies, and we allow the bankers to destroy the people based on lies and fraud with no consequence, and we allow network news to incessantly lie to the people without consequence..........
and yet we destroyed a great person because he attempted to shelter his players for breaking a STUPID Rule.........
if you give someone a gift, then it is theirs and they do whatever this wish with it, if NOT do not give them the gift............NCAA HYPOCRISY supreme..........
thanks for showing your lack of competence and depth

who cares what college team you like. you gotta be deaf, dumb and blind not to know the whole ncaa thing is broke. btw, quit hatin.

As I said, I don't think this destroys the guy.
But....this isn't about the players breaking rules.
Jim failed to do what was required he do....report the incident.
I understand the protecting of players but he also had a responsibility to protect the game and the University.
Let's not try to shift blame to places it doesn't belong.

I aint going to lie, I am going to miss the sweater vest alittle bit. He made being a Buckeye fan feel as if the football team were structured, that they could beat a team that had more speed and strength by just using thier heads. The only thing that really makes me mad about him is that we always seemed to lose to the big schools. USC beat our asses both years, Texas beat us with Young and Colt, LSU pounded the farts out of us, and Florida made us look like we were a high school team. I hope we dont get more than a 2 year probabtion, because this year is a wash anyway with our stars out 5 games.
