Jim Tressel was and still is my favorite coach of all time. I never enjoyed the sport more than when he coached at Ohio State. He kicked the [Mark May] out of Michigan. He won an improbable national title against a Goliath Miami team. Mind you, that 2002 season will never be duplicated, it was the most entertaining season of football I've ever witnessed......and probably will never again. He wasn't pretty at times with how he won, but he won a ton of ballgames.......which is all that matters in the end. He restored Ohio State's legacy as an elite program with relevance over a long span of time.
Sadly, I feel that the business end of college football took away the purity of his coaching philosophy (one that his dad engrained in his head) and became a driving force in his program. His old fashioned styles had a hard time meshing with the modern day recruiting and player relationship. He gave too many second chances and benefits of the doubt, I guess. It's a damn sad day to see Tress have to walk on someone else's terms.....he deserves much better. He's a legend and will one day fill up Ohio State's historical football books with the fervor that is used to detail Woody's days in Columbus. The Buckeye nation..........and college football for that matter lost a great one today.

First, it's my baby girl's birthday today. She's five years old today, so I've been out of pocket all day smoking meat (she loves daddy's smoked ribs, lol)
Second, we had a death in our family. My wife's aunt passed away today of cancer. She was 52 years old.
So, obviously, I've been busy today. I settle down after everything today, and just decided to turn on ESPN....and I see that JT RESIGNED?!?
Sweeet cream on an Ice Cream Sammich!!! WTF?!?! I thought he was going to fight for his job and stuff? I'm trying to catch up on all the news, but WTF?!? Was he pressured to resign?
