I've thought about this a bit, and think that the head nod could be simply Tressel acknowledging the question as it might be his answering it.
If you watch him during interviews, he often will do that in order to stay engaged with the person asking the question. Heck, I do that when I'm listening to someone as well.
Just my IMO.
Whew. Good to know. The only really bad, bad thing that could come of this is off the table if it stopped with Tress.
The NCAA thinking y'all played them is one thing, but the other is nuclear.
And, FWIW, FSU had a deal a few years back where it kept players eligible with an on-line course that was so bogus and rigged that essentially - they should
not have been eligible. So wtih that eligibility problem - knowingly playing ineligible players, they just vacated some wins, with almost no scholly reductions. If that is apples to apples, I think Tress gets a few more games to sit, and y'all get a slap on the wrist scholly or two - max.
You guys ain't SMU, and never have been, so as mad as they may be, Tress and Delaney are a force that can weather the storm without serious problems. With FSU, they took Bobbah's wins away because it hurt them more than the reduced scholarships (FSU really wanted Bobbah to have the record - they did not factor on the Crypt Keeper in Happy Valley's stamina). If they wanted to be petty, they would vacate the Sugar just to let the SEC fans gig you for another year.
I'm glad to hear that his nodding was not a "yes" - most likely.
