Tressel

I have been arguing about whether OSU should fire Jim Tressel or not. It seems that the majority of my friends believe that they should not. I think that they should take a higher moral stand and get rid of him.

I think he has done an amazing job at OSU and made the last 10 years of football really enjoyable, and it's not like he needs alcohol detox, and I understand that. The fact is that he lied to the NCAA about whether or not his players were eligible and then pretended to be surprised when it all came to light.

We've all made mistakes and I'm all about forgiveness but the message OSU sends by keeping him is that winning is more important than integrity, and I'm not ok with that.
