Jim Tressel's resignation capped a tumultuous five-plus months.
 
Tressel out at Ohio State
 
University encourages coach to resign as NCAA troubles mount; sources say there's an unrelated investigation into Pryor's benefits
 
His teams found glory on the field. His clean-cut image made him one of the biggest icons in college sports. His players had unprecedented academic success for an Ohio State football team.

But Jim Tressel's impressive resume, one of the best in OSU history, wasn't enough to save him.

What's wrong with this picture?

I'm a college athlete....a football player.  I have earned many trophies, rings, plaques....I have received many gifts.

These things...I thought ......were mine.   And being mine....I can do with...what I please.


So ...I sell some of my things.....for money and other services.


But the NCAA says, "That's a violation".   They suspend me for 5 games....the first 5 games of next season.....but wait....


They're  letting me play in a bowl game in 2 weeks.  They've got to get their money.  And these fans.....pay to see me play.


Greed......good for the NCAA.......bad for me.....the college athlete.


From the Columbus  Dispatch:

Julie Posey said the NCAA — not her son and not Ohio State — is the real guilty party. | Story
