billdozer15 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Has there ever honestly been one single shred of evidence that Jim Tressel has anything more than a complete lack of interest and thought towards Nebraska? Yeah I would like to know if its even something he would consider. If we found that out I'd say the cat would be out of the bag........you likely will never know the answer to this question unless A) He becomes the head coach here. B) You run into him at a tattoo parlor and ask....... Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Maybe we could just ask Tom to ask him to coach here. "When Coach Osborne calls you, you do what he asks." -J. Tressel Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 That is one of the reasons I think it could work. Very similar in approach. Tom knows Tressel got royally screwed on the Tattoo deal. Yes he lied, but hasn't every one? I could see him hand training his successor also. It is not going to be exciting football, but it would precise and straight forward I would think.

I don't buy this non exciting "Tressel ball". No one here would harp if he walked right in and won a championship the same way he did in 03 with Ohio st. Plus, he was pretty wide open with Troy Smith and recruited Braxton Miller. Quote Link to comment
shyndy Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 It's kind of interesting that OSU and tresses got hammered for that stuff in light of all the stuff that has happened since then and hardly any thing has been done outside of suspending a player a couple games Quote Link to comment

Blackshirts007 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I said Tressel last year. If we decide to grow to some balls and make change Tressel would be a perfect hire. Throw the right amount of cash and he will coach here. Unfortunately I think the university is scared firing a good not great Bo could turn in BC all over again. Well not if you spend the money for a great proven coach. Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Problem is, would he step down from being president at Youngstown State a few months after being hired there? I sure hope so, but something tells me he probably won't. Quote Link to comment

HuskerJax Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Is there any chance the sanctions can be removed? I know there is an appeal process, but is it really a possibility? Seems like tressels problem would've small potatoes today. Quote Link to comment
jjamuss Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 If the NCAA is willing to forgive some punishment for a decade of child rape I would hope they'd negotiate some tattoos and not ratting out players. 100% agree!! We need Tressel as much as he needs a fresh start.... let bygones be bygones, lets get Jim N!! Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Like I've said before, hiring Tressel is akin to nailing a girl you know has the clap... How hot is she? 2 Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 With Tom Osborne asking, in honesty almost anything is possible. Coach Osborne and Coach Tressel are good friends, and I can see Coach Tressel wanting to say he worked with Coach Osborne. The NCAA got out of control, with Ohio State, USC and Penn State. Allows SEC schools a lot of leeway. A president of a University asking to be forgiven would most likely be well received. This is a good man, and everyone in the NCAA knows it. Slam dunk I think. But he is set, and I could see him saying why. I would like to think Coach Osborne could give him a reason. 1 Quote Link to comment
