Tressel is speaking at a "Coaches' Clinic" with other coaches - from MAC programs. And this is supposed to concern UM fans because......? Tressel is going to wow over the crowd of coaches in his hour speech and all of the connections UM had will begin to weaken? Hmm....
Did you notice there are really NO UM coaches there? Do you think there is a conspiracy across the state of Michigan to ignore UM? Or do you think it is because UM is holding it's OWN 2 day coaches' clinic (probably in Ann Arbor) at the end of March?
If this stuff matters at all for recruiting, give me two days over one hour anytime.

I think continually being out of the Nat'l Title hunt in September, string of 3+ loss seasons, being dominated by Jim Tressel and string of assistant coaches fleeing like rats from a sinking ship will take care of that.

This is not meant as a Cooper bash...but the respect and tradition that JT has brought back to our program should have been there before, during, and after the Cooper era.
This was how Buckeye Football was meant to be.

LMAO! i guess you aren't aware of the fact that Bo had Woody come in and speak to the Blue before The Game one year. Woody got those kids so fired up that they went out and destroyed the Buckeyes... <!--EZCODE FONT START--> It's in the faithful. It's in the faith. This is the thing that gives the Buckeyes an edge, the Ohio State spirit, the unwavering practice of devotion, devotion the way Woody would want it, and the way John Cooper never could understand. It's a thing so deep it has no roots, so wide it's got no shores. It's a thing that can't be contained, can't be kept under a bushel, or left lying quiet in a heart. It's a thing that has to be sung out, made manifest.
