Better to cherry pick another outstanding up and comer than try a burned out coach IMO.



I agree with this 100%

While I agree that it's unlikely that harsh penalties will be assessed against tOSU or possible Tressel himself, I hope that it would happen and that it would help stop these types of shenanigans from occurring.


It won't. There is too much to gain from these violations. I can't even imagine how much goes unknown and unpunished. Tressel has a track record with things and it didn't stop him. Ohio State has a track record with violations and they still happen. I don't think it will ever stop.

Agreed, but in this case Tress should be fired. tOSU already looks like crap for letting those figs play against Arkansas.

tOSU is actually a little behind the 8-ball on this one as most of the coaching changes have already occurred. If they grab the coach from a smaller school after spring workouts they'll really be screwing them over.



They are screwed for this year IMO

The best option available at this point might be to dismiss Tressell and appoint one of his assistants to interim head coach

Then do a proper coaching search over the next 9 months and have your new staff in place 2-3 months before recruiting day (hopefully NCAA can fully resolve the case in this time too - JT gone would be a significant step towards lessening punishment IMO)

It will be pretty uncomfortable this season at tOSU no matter what you do at this point tho.

You'll likely see JT step down and admit no fault, I expect OSU would then look to Jim Heacock for 2011 and then in 2012 for them to make a perm higher.

I was thinking along these lines...

Or they could have some fun and give Mike Leach a one year contract.

After this latest news, it is time for Ohio State and Jim Tressel to part ways. I have a feeling there is still more to come.

I am very disappointed. But life will go one.

Unfortunately I agree with you. In my opinion it will make Ohio State look really bad if they don't fire him or force him to resign.

It's strange cause Tressel appears to be a good guy. He sells out for a guy that really hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. You won your most recent NC with a program guy and this "star" has brought nothing but misery. Now, he's cost you your coach.

It's extremely hard for me to dislike Tressel, but Ohio State needs to learn from this and move on. As for Pryor, I don't care for him at all and won't be sad to see him leave after this year.

If you can't look at the outcome of the Bruce Pearl situation and realize that Tressel is screwed, I'm not really sure how to help you.
