The guy has gone 10-3, 11-2, 12-1, 10-2 with a BCS win and two title game berths in his last four years along with winning it in 2002. You don't get fired for that anywhere. They only time something even remotely similar happened was when Nebraska went 8-3 and Caughlin (sp) was fired. The difference there is they went 7-7 the year before and wanted a new system.
His job is safe no matter what the boosters say.

I started a thread about this on Sat night right after the game and I agree he needs to make some changes by hiring an offensive cordinator to call the plays and to his entire staff but he is a stubborn man.Also would love to see Brian Kelly with his offensive mind and the recruits he could get to come to Columbus wow.Urban Meyer would be another fine choice but I cannot see him leaving Florida anytime soon.

As a Michigan fan I say Yes, he's horrible...what a no talent ass-clown. Please fire him NOW!! In fact please call Cooper & bring him back.
I have a buddy & his family that are all OSU fans and they constantly bitch about Tressel & while he needs to loosen up the play calling more (esp in big games) but it's the same shit that Lloyd Carr had to endure. Hopefully soon enough they'll force Tressel out like they did Lloyd.
RichRod doing some things now & ~80% of MI is Fr & So but I'm on record as wanting Kelly. Being on the west side of the state I knew about him back with Grand Valley & the crazy run he had with them. The guy gets it done with whatever talent he has whether it's his own or guys he inherits.

The only guy that could or would replace Tress is Urban Meyer....he has a clause in his contract stating such...
Meyer's contract allows him to leave Florida with little or no buyout for any one of 3 schools....Notre Dame (he had a chance to go to but didn't), Michigan (see ND) and Ohio St. Meyer is from Ashtabula (Ohio). I think ultimately Meyer replaces Tressel, but only after Tressel either takes over as AD, or retires....but not in the immediate future...
You heard it here first.
As for Brian Kelly....when Charlie Weiss completes is total bust at ND....I can see Kelly ending up in South Bend...
You heard THAT here first as well...

Next year Ohio St will return 20 starters....(Cordle, Worthington, Ballard & Spitler are ALL seniors who are either splitting time with an under classmen (Shugarts, Heyward/Simon/Goebel, Stonebrunner & Sabno) or are going to be easily replacable. The only true starter to replace next year is Coleman (FS/SS). Ohio St plays Miami Florida in place of USC in the horseshoe. Next year they will make a run.
I have a best friend whose father played under Woody Hayes. His dad now runs an extremely successfull business in Columbus and is as tight with the Buckeye Brass as you can get.
Let's put it this way.....Tressell is being watched extremely closely throughout the rest of this season. If something should happen, and Ohio State lose a game prior to Michigan, then fall to Michigan, Tressell is out of work in Columbus. They feel there is zero excuse for what happened to last year's team, and for Pryor to not be devoloping quicker, to these guys, is unacceptable.
