Tressel lied to tOSU, NCAA - on his way out?

Post by **dbackjon** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 1:39 pm

Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith has returned to campus and a news conference has been called for Tuesday night, signs that coach Jim Tressel’s job might be in jeopardy after a report that he did not tell his superiors that he was aware of potential NCAA violations involving star quarterback Terrelle Pryor and others.

Yahoo! Sports reported Monday that Tressel knew of allegations of improper benefits to Pryor and five other players as early as April 2010—at least seven months before the university found out from a U.S. Attorney.

Smith is the chairman of the NCAA’s Division I men’s basketball committee which selects, seeds and brackets the teams for the NCAA tournament. He came back from meetings in New York to address the brewing controversy involving Tressel, who is 106-22 in his 10 years as coach of the Buckeyes.

Michigan became the buzzkill when they lost to Appy State. They haven't been the same since. The poor little girls.

He is a liar, and a cheat. He deserves to be fired.

But he wont.

2 game suspension. WAFJ

Anyone see him make a fool out of himself, and everyone else for that matter, in the press conf today?

I suppose they didn't specify WHICH two games? It'll probably be Akron and Toledo, which they probably think they can win blindfolded.

If they had any nads at all, they'd suspend him from the Michigan and Penn State games.

How many still think he should be fired after the fine they handed him? And if you think they would fire him, you are on some wacky drugs.

Yeah, I'm sure that 250K is just going to devastate him.

Not only did he not report these violations when he found out, but he flat out lied about it when it came out a couple months ago. What a loser.

He should be fired.

Just not sure why people give a fuck. It's between him, the University and the NCAA.

If people like you made the decisions, there would be no sports, period.

Would you have me believe that ANY Michigan fan thought there was a chance in H-E-Double-Toothpicks they'd lose to Appy?

Shit yeah he should be fired.

Lying gets you fired at just about any job. Coaches that are the faces of their universities and bring in multimillion dollar salaries should be fired for the same without hesitation. What a bum.

It seems to be like a cover up. Like Nixon he failed. If Nixon didn't resign he would have been impeached. Same should apply to Tressel. But it won't

eh Tressel just showed he's a true Buckeye...

You laugh because you know it's truth, cunt.

I laugh because you literally have no argument.

All you can say is "why do people care?!? Its none of their business!".

If we didn't talk about things that weren't our business there would be about 6 threads on this board.

It's kinda what sports fans do.

You should learn how to quote. All you do on this site is ramble to see your own filth that you call posts.
