Error in judgment no question. The kids selling their own property, a tattoo parlor giving them tattoos. Yea pretty serious stuff. Also the tattoo parlor was owned by a pretty shady character that Tressel had some fear of. He lied about it. I seem to remember a certain coach that hid a gun for a few days, I also remember a young hyspman winner robbing a gas station, and very heavily covered up by a certain university. We have had our fair share of questionable events. Did he cheat to win, did he cheat to make money for himself, did he do anything but protect his kids.
Supposedly one of the best people in college football until this happened. Devout, religious man, did things right and made the kids do things right.
Do you really believe that every kid on the Nebraska football team is paying for all their tattoos. Where do they get that type of money? They are all broke and starving correct, no money for a hamburger, go to movie, but can pay a couple thousand dollars for sleeve of tats.
I went on that tangent, and it is one of my pet peeves about NCAA. These kids do deserve some type of financial help while in school. they pay a lot of the bills around here.
The right person poking around can and will find something if that is their mission. I think Tressel fell victim to it. His main reason for being fired/resigned was the lie. Not the infractions or what was supposedly done.
