Urban F. Meyer (Former OSU, CFB and NFL coach)

Tressel deserves it for on-field, no doubt. But of you're talking the entire picture, no way. He cheated. He lied repeatedly. He left in disgrace with the program on probation.

And Woody committed unprovoked assault against an opposing player.

It is, after all, Mt. Rushmore/Buckeye, not Mt. Sinai.

(And, no, I wasn't on Team Tressel. Just think you'll be hard pressed to find four without a blemish on or off the field.)

I’m far more offended that Woody punched a kid than that Tressel didn’t report free fucking tattoos. I’m far more offended that Urban kept Zach Smith on the staff (or hired him in the first place) than Tressel not reporting that some kids traded jewelry WE GAVE THEM for some tattoos.

And I’m definitely far more offended that Thomas Jefferson seduced his teenage slave than that Jim Tressel sat on some stupid NCAA infraction.

Tressel is on the Ohio State Mount Rushmore. If he’s not, none of them are.

No. I consider not reporting knowledge of it to his superiors and two times falsifying a statement to the NCAA to keep them eligible cheating. For the n'th time. It was not a tattoo scandal. It was head coach covering shit up and lying to superiors and the NCAA scandal.
Under this standard I would imagine almost every team has cheated. You don't think every coach is covering up violations?

Deserved or not, Woody and Urban brought more public shame to the university than JT ever did.

What a bunch of bullshit. Him not reporting some bs NCAA rule, which is a goddamn joke anyway, trumps his love for his players and mentorship? Your moral superiority shtick is getting old. I'm sure if JT had a perfect SAT score he'd be a saint in your eyes
