That's my mantra for pretty much everything.

So to hell with the judgement of those that don't know..and didn't bother to ask somebody before writing him off.

I still love you coach...thanks...thanks for everything.

The problem in this case, unfortunately, is the judgment of Jim Tressel by someone else is going to directly impact tOSU, so it matters. To what extent remains to be seen.

Terms of Tressel's exit nearly finished
Sunday, June 12, 2011
By Encarnacion Pyle and Rob Messinger
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

A deal sealing Jim Tressel's departure from Ohio State University - including whether the university will pay the former football coach or whether he owes any money - should be completed this week, OSU President E. Gordon Gee said yesterday.

Gee would not detail any proposals, saying that attorneys for the university and Tressel are negotiating those now.

"We will resolve this thing really quickly," Gee said, adding that an agreement could be presented this week to the university's board of trustees, who meet on Thursday and Friday.

Jim Tressel seems to be a long shot to get a job as an NFL head coach. I spoke with three men who have hired NFL coaches in recent years, and none of them ever had Tressel on a short list. However, two of them said they would have to at least give the former Ohio State coach some consideration. One of them cited his leadership and record. The other spoke of his intelligence and ability to oversee. What might work against Tressel? Two of the men pointed to the fact that Tressel has never been involved with the NFL, and he would be entering a foreign environment late in his career. Other concerns include his sensitivity to criticism and his fatherly coaching style. None of them indicated that Tressel?s problems at Ohio State would eliminate him as a candidate.
