Congrats Nic on getting to play BBall your senior season, and for your great choice of tOSU where the coaches care about your maturation and development, and want you to have fun while gaining them.

Tressel's blessing:

Madison senior center Nic DiLillo said he is playing basketball with approval of Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel, who recruited DiLillo to play tight end.

"I thought at first I wasn't going to play basketball because I didn't really know how the [OSU] coaches felt," DiLillo said. "I called Coach Tressel and he said, 'I just want you to compete all the time.' I was very happy to hear that."

Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel is making a few stops in Northeastern Ohio this week.
Tressel, along with offensive coordinator Jim Bollman and defensive backs coach Taver Johnson, took in Tuesday night's Madison-Edgewood game to watch OSU commit Nic DiLillo.

Wish I'd known about this before reading it in the paper this morning, would have loved to take my son down the road to meet Coach Tressel.

This must have been a huge treat for Nic. There isn't a kid in this entire class that wants to be a Buckeye any more than Nic does.

Sitting in the left field seats at Jacobs Field might give one hopes of catching a home run ball, but Nic DiLillo landed a much bigger catch than that during a summertime game. The Madison (Oh.) tight end learned of his OSU offer when taking in a Cleveland Indians game, and it didn't take him long to take the pitch. Read more about his journey to become a Buckeye.
