When I think about which teams I generally root for and don't, Ohio State is usually on the list of teams I will pull for, and was last night.
Most coaches suffering a crippling defeat would do a quick hand shake and sprint off into the locker room. But Tressel calmly walked back and actually stopped in front of Tolzein to shake his hand. Tolzein was picking up his helmet and did't see the out stretched hand for a moment and looked really surprised when he looked up.
You can call the fans arrogant, or hate them for always being that good. But this guy seems to genuinely be a great football coach and a classy ambassador for a University that always hasn't had that.
His program has been as dominant as any in college football without the arrests, recruiting violations and other calamities that most top 5 programs suffer with some regularity.
To me, this guy is like the Coach K of CFB. People hate them because they win, and let's be honest, it feels like they do it the right way with a classy guy as head coach.
Not only that, but for all of his conservative playcalling, they had a pretty good chance after being down 21-3 to start the second half.
I just think he's an impressive coach.
