Obviously not directed at you, but doesn't JT have a show cause that still applies through next season?

He does. Not to mention that there's a state full of blue hairs that wouldn't have that.

Don't get me wrong. I'd take the guy. Regardless of what went down there at tOSU, I think the guy is top class, not just as a football coach. But I can't see Eichorst getting rid of a guy with some pretty glaring flaws for a guy who the media has branded the same way.

And no disrespect to Nebraska, but I don't think JT would want the job. He's no longer a young guy (turns 62 in a few days) and he's made several statements to the effect that he doesn't want to coach again. And (admittedly this may be the Buckeye in me talking) I have a hard time thinking he'd ever coach at another Big Ten school.

110% agreed. I just can't see him ever coaching another game in the B1G, especially against you guys.

Tom Herman, Offensive Coordinator, Ohio State
ohio-state-buckeyes.png
Despite losing quarterback Braxton Miller to a shoulder injury in fall practice, Ohio State’s offense ranked as the best in the Big Ten by averaging 44.1 points per game. Herman and coach Urban Meyer were instrumental in the development of redshirt freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett and will have to do the same for Cardale Jones after Barrett’s injury against Michigan. Herman has worked under coach Urban Meyer since 2012 and called the plays at Texas State (2005-06), Rice (2007-08) and Iowa State (2009-11). Herman also is a member of Mensa International. Expect Herman to get a look for openings outside of the Power 5 leagues.

So you're saying Ellen Tressel is as happy living in Youngstown on $200k annually as she'd be living in Lincoln on $4M?

I don't think so.
Let's see. Living in Youngstown where she probably has a lot of friends versus living in Lincoln where she knows no one? Winner, Youngstown. I doubt very seriously they are "living" on his current salary of $200k. My guess is Tressel has put himself in a financial position so that they could live comfortably with or without that salary. And with his business connections, I am confident his true income in Youngstown is higher than the $200k (free cars from dealers, etc.).
