Filthy, win-at-all-costs program. Pathological liar of an (ex-) head coach. Disturbingly delusional fanbase.
FO$U makes me sick.

Hey fufu, tell me again how I don't know what I'm talking about and I have a terrible read on this situation? I told you from the day it came out that he knew about it and lied that he was gone.
Well guess what pal, like usual I was right.

Depending on how harsh the sanctions are I doubt Urban will want the job

That's surprising, considering he came from Iowa State.

I'd guess that the tOSU registrar's office is scrambling right now to find someone to teach Tressel's class next semester.

Not really. They're still Ohio State, and Iowa doesn't play them the next two years. A lot can change between now and then.

Interesting. Your refrain since December has been that there is nothing else going on, that this would all blow over.

Not necessarily true....Big-10 championship game looms.

Very true, but then you'd have to make the assumption that Iowa is going to get there at least over the next two years.

Bielema has to be soiling himself right now in anticipation. Wiscy should now be the all out favorite in the leaders division.
The press conference was a killer, came off bad and Gees comments were the topper. The media digging in was unprecedented.

In the end, the University did what it had to do. I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision but they didn't have a choice. Any future wins/championships with Tressel as the head coach would have been ridiculed by everyone. The football program would have had zero credibility with anyone outside of Buckeye nation, and even some inside of it. It would have been an embarrassment to the Big 10 if OSU had kept Tressel as their head coach. This was the right move.
I'd like to think that deep down Jim Tressel is a good person. However, his actions made it very clear the most important thing to him was winning at all costs. That doesn't necessarily make him a horrible person, but it does make him a horrible choice for a position that should require leadership and integrity.

Let's not jump the gun the way Jon is doing on twitter. They're still Ohio State, and that Wisconsin team lost 17 starters and has to go to Columbus.

So this is the media's fault now?
