Sounds like Jim Tressel to Nebraska is a possibility. How would you feel about having him back in the conference?
He's been out of the game for 4 years now. He also won't recruit as well at Nebraska as he did at OSU. I don't think he'd win anymore than Bo Pelini.
Tressel's "show cause" penalty doesn't end until 2016. If he gets hired before than he will be suspended the first 5 games of the season. Plus he's 61. Unless he's bringing a "coach in waiting" with him on his staff, this is a long shot IMO
But I would love to see him coaching again. He lied to he NCAA but the same can be said for probably every coach and player who has ever been asked a question by the NCAA.
Ugh. That would be the death knell to Iowa Football.
There is a lot of talk that he is certainly in the mix.
I'll believe it when I see it.
I would assume they had their man before Bo got the axe.
Didn't vest release a statement saying he wasn't their man. Like his word means anything any way.
Eichorst can't seriously talk about their core values in the press conference and then hire Tressel. Tressel isn't a bad/evil person (a la Jerry Sandusky and I know that's an extreme comparison) but he's shown on multiple occasions at multiple institutions that he's willing to break rules AND lie about it. That goes straight to integrity even if the rule is minor and the lie is minor in the grander scheme.
Hunter I really hope they don't have their man and they experience a little bit of what Iowa went through when hiring a replacement for Lick in hoops. Your program isn't on the delusional level you goobers think it is and it's not the marquee job you all think it is either.
