How long are you going to make dip[censored] comparisons? Tressel is 208-73-2 (73.7%) all-time including 73-16-0 (82.0%) at Ohio State...not even close to 62.5%. Oh yeah, Tressel also has five national titles and nine national title game appearances. How many of either does DickRod have?

And no, resources and competition do not go up in the same proportion, otherwise you'd be suggesting that the resources at all Big Ten schools are the same across the board because the competition is a step up from the Big East.
.645 after you take out his weak first year. Much of a difference?

I have to admit I too am sad to see all the hatred for RR posted in this thread.

After all - he has his own thread! Let's post some hate over there as well.

Apples to oranges. Next time read the whole discussion. Tressel was not 208-73-2 when he showed up at Ohio State. He was roughly .700. Which was at D-IAA. The competition in the Big Ten is so much harder!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep

The last coach Ohio State had that went 9-4 all the time was Earle Bruce.

He was fired for it.

Yes, exactly.

But Tressel's record at Youngstown State was 135-57-2, or .701. Applying the fallacious logic that RR's previous coaching win percentage (.625) will be the same at Michigan, Tressel should be giving you 9-4 seasons. He's not, even though the competition is so much better.
