President Tressel to be inducted in the College FB Hall of Fame

(1/4) > >>

Penguin Nation:
"Tressel was 106-22 in 10 seasons as coach of Ohio State, including a national championship in 2002. He was forced to resign after the 2010 season after he withheld information from the school and NCAA about possible violations by some of his players, who traded memorabilia and equipment for tattoos. The NCAA imposed a five-year show cause order on Tressel that would open up a school to possible sanctions if it hired him as a coach. That order ends September 2016.

Tressel also coached 15 seasons at Youngstown State, winning four Division I-AA national titles. He is the only coach to win national championship at both levels of Division I. He was named president of Youngstown State on May 9, 2014."

Many congrats!

Congrats coach!!

OleYSUfan:
Well deserved. Coach put Youngstown back on the map during the 90's and put YSU as a formable college football team. Jim's new assignment will be to establish YSU as a well known university where students will want to get their education.

IAA Fan:
We will just pretend that his secretary put OSU ahead of YSU by accident, when he said Go B******* and Go Penguins.   ;)

ysufan0505:
Shame that most people will look over his accomplishments at lowly Youngstown State and only focus on his success at Ohio State....
