A friend and I were talking about JT and had a disgrement over his coaching style.
He basiclly said that he didn't like it, because once the coach gets the Buck's ahead by 10-20 points it's like he gives up the game.
Me, now I love how he coachs. Number one, he gets the younger players out on the field, and let's them get a feel for the game before it is their turn to start. To me what he is doing is what other teams, who seemed to think beating Poedunk U. by fifty or more points makes them look better, should do. I really think that is why tOSU have constantly good teams lately. These players gets the feel for what it is like to play in an actual game, better than playing in scrimage during practice. The on feild time will condention them to be ready a lot sooner than a player who has never seen time on the field during a game.
And Number Two. He doesn't need to run up the score. A win is a win even if it is by 7 or 57. It really ticks me off when teams are beating another team by HIGH double didgets. If you have your team ahead by 15-20, great don't go out of your way to crush your opponent into the ground because you can. (Unless that school is called Michigan, then go for it. Cause damn, do I hate that team.*grins*)
The coaching style of Jim Tressel, is great. He is a player's coach. He has more class than most coaches of today. He doesn't need 50 points to prove his team is good. He let's them get in there prove thier point, and then pulls them back and lets the young kids play. You gotta respect the heck out of him for that. Sorry for the rambling. It just struck me, as I was reading the Iawo game thread. Dryden brought up a sore point for me, and I just wanted to say how much I respected JT because of his coaching style. And, I will shut up now.
