  1. Glad he manned up. He is okay in my eyes now.
  2. Id like to see Mitxhell benched for bowl game.
  3. It's fine. I'm excited, I hope he is the answer. if he isn't, then we will hire Tressel when he is 65
  4. There is something I need to get off my chest... I made up every rumor I started and for that I apologize. I expect the Sock Puppet among others to step forward as well. It's the only way we can get this cleansing process complete. I was just trying to build the hype. I am happy with Mr. Riley.
  5. I'm all in on Riley as long as we can get Frosty as HC in waiting.
  6. Here is what I have figured out. Mike Reilly was probably going into his last season at OSU, then fired. Mike Reilly isn't known as a good recruiter, doesn't like to get out there. Mike Reilly is 61 years old, so not really a young whipper-snapper. Mike Reilly is a QB guru? Mike Reilly is well regarded as a coach and is "nice." WHAT HAPPENED? Give me a couple days, but as of right now I'm pissed.
  7. WHAT DID YOU GUYS DO WHILE I WAS WORKING!?!?!?!!>!>!>
  8. We burn Ann Arbor to the ground and piss on the ashes, Shooter McGavin style. There is no coming down from JT/FROST coming to Nebraska. I'll have a nervous meltdown and hate Michigan forever if they scoop JT from us.
  9. Dang it, he could've taken this coaching search to an all new level. #BLOODWILLBESHED
  10. Guys, I'm only on break for 15 more minutes, could we please move things along here? #MOREPOSTS
  11. Honest question: If Tressel says in fact he is not going to coach at Nebraska, will we actually stop believing that he isn't our next HC? I say no. He is our coach regardlesss. Even if we hire someone else, I'm still calling him JT. WE DESERVE THIS.
  12. Alright, now is the time to start planning events for the home opener next year. Everyone go and buy a 12 pack of socks and pass them out to the people sitting around you and tell them to put that on their hand for the game. Ala Mick Foley.
  13. Lol what? From his actual twitter? I'm not buying it!!! I follow Tressel on Twitter. It's legit Looks too real. Must be fake! My hopes have now gone from Tressel to Tressel with Frost so now I'm all in on Tressel/Frost/Braxton Miller! Tressel recruited him right? GO BIG RED
  14. Lol what? From his actual twitter? I'm not buying it!!!
  15. Link? ummm... www.jimtressel.com check it out man, he probably took it down like that tweet last night....lolz
  16. Lol, serious? You realize that is the Lebron letter just changed around right?
  17. Bison, that letter was anything but HUSH HUSH. How does that not appear credible? HE SIGNED IT!
  18. Idk, I'm convinced that letter means he is N.
  19. I don't know what that means, but i'm having a blast. Can't wait for Tress/Frost to be in Nebraska. This is awesome.
  20. WOW! Just found this at JimTressel.com Before anyone ever cared where I would coach football, I was a kid from Nebraska. It’s where I walked. It’s where I ran. It’s where I cried. It’s where I bled. It holds a special place in my heart. People there have seen me grow up. I sometimes feel like I’m their son. Their passion can be overwhelming. But it drives me. I want to give them hope when I can. I want to inspire them when I can. My relationship with Nebraska is bigger than football. I didn’t realize that 60 years ago. I do now. Remember when I was sitting up there at the Boys & Girls Club in 1953? I was thinking, This is really tough. I could feel it. I was leaving something I had spent a long time creating. If I had to do it all over again, I’d obviously do things differently, but I’d still have left. Ohio State, for me, has been almost like college for other kids. These past 60 years helped raise me into who I am. I became a better coach and a better man. I learned from a University that had been where I wanted to go. I will always think of Ohio as my second home. Without the experiences I had there, I wouldn’t be able to do what I’m doing today. I went to Ohio State because my parents forced me. We made sacrifices to keep dinner on the table. I loved becoming a big bro to Dick. I believed we could do something magical if we came together. And that’s exactly what we did! The hardest thing to leave is what I built with my family. I’ve talked to some of them and will talk to others. Nothing will ever change what we accomplished. We are family for life. I also want to thank Terrell Pryor and AD Gene Smith for giving me an amazing 11 years. I’m doing this essay because I want an opportunity to explain myself uninterrupted. I don’t want anyone thinking: He and Brutus didn’t get along. … He and Pryor didn’t get along. … Ohio couldn’t put the right state together. That’s absolutely not true. I’m not having a press conference or a party. After this, it’s time to get to work. When I left Nebraska, I was on a mission. I was seeking championships, and we won one. But Ohio already knew that feeling. Our city hasn’t had that feeling in a long, long, long time. My goal is still to win as many titles as possible, no question. But what’s most important for me is bringing one more trophy back to Nebraska. I always believed that I’d return to Nebraska and finish my career there. I just didn’t know when. After the suspension, coaching wasn’t even a thought. But I four children and my wife, Ellen, is pregnant with another, just kidding! I started thinking about what it would be like to raise my family in my birthtown. I looked at other states, but I wasn’t going to leave Ohio for anywhere except Nebraska. The more time passed, the more it felt right. This is what makes me happy. To make the move I needed the support of my wife and my mom, who can be very tough. The letter from Tom Osborne, the booing of the Nebraska fans, the sweater vests being burned -- seeing all that was hard for them. My emotions were more mixed. It was easy to say, “OK, I don’t want to deal with these people ever again.” But then you think about the other side. What if I were a kid who looked up to a coach, and that head ball coach made me want to do better in my own life, and then he left? How would I react? I’ve met with The Sock Puppet, face-to-face, man-to-sock puppet. We’ve talked it out. Everybody makes mistakes. I’ve made mistakes as well. Who am I to hold a grudge? I’m not promising a B10 championship. I know how hard that is to deliver. We’re not ready right now. No way. Of course, I want to win next year, but I’m realistic. It will be a long process, much longer than it was in 2002. My patience will get tested. I know that. I’m going into a situation with a young team and a new coach, oh yeah that's me. I will be the old head coach? But I get a thrill out of bringing a group together and helping them reach a place they didn’t know they could go. I see myself as a mentor now and I’m excited to lead some of these talented young guys. I think I can help Scott Frost become one of the best Offensive Coordinators in our league. I think I can help elevate Tommy Armstrong and Courtney Love, if he doesn't transfer. And I can’t wait to reunite with Bo Pelini, one of my favorites from Youngstown. Oh, i'm taking his job, nevermind. But this is not about the roster or the program. I feel my calling here goes above football. I have a responsibility to lead, in more ways than one, and I take that very seriously. My presence can make a difference in Ohio, but I think it can mean more where I’m from. I want kids in Nebraska, like the hundreds of Lincoln third-graders I sponsor through my scholarship foundation, "Scott's Tots" to realize that there’s no better place to grow up. Maybe some of them will come home after college and start a family or open a business. That would make me smile. Our community, which has struggled so much, needs all the talent it can get. In Nebraska, nothing is given. Everything is earned. You work for what you have. I’m ready to accept the challenge. I’m coming home. -Jim "The Vest" Tressel (apparently he moved to Ohio shortly after birth)
  21. Wtf guys, go to bed! I had 4 pages to read and went to bed at 1130. Anyways, my tweet from Tressel autocorrected. It said "Meals Down in my belly!" My source was wrong about timeline at least. Hope it is really JT and frosty
  22. Wtf? Anyone else just see Tressell tweet and delete "wheels down in Lincoln!"
  23. Guys, post about new rumors your making up instead of repeating it's not Kenny's real FB page. Lolz
