According to Yahoo News the Ohio state university coach Jim Tressel has chosen to join the Buckeye five and sit out five games with the players. Four players Terrelle Pryor, Boom Herron, DeVier Posey, and Mike Adams were suspended for violating NCAA rules by selling their things like Rings and jerseys and some other things to a Tattoo parlor. Tressel was suspended two games and fined 250,000 dollars but Tressel has chosen to set out five games with his players Tressel said that they can only learn for their mistakes by being punished together this is why he has chosen to do what he is doing.
I think that 5 games is a little strict because they are seniors and they did not know that they couldn’t sell their stuff I could see if they knew and still sold it but I think they need to give them a break. I do believe in if you break rules and get in trouble for it you need to man up and face the consequences.
Is it a surprise that Tressel is doing this? Not really to me he is probably a little upset considering he was fined 250,000 dollars I would be upset too. I thing that he isn’t doing it to look good for the public eye I think he is truly doing this for his players to show them that he really cares and show his loyalty to them like they are to him by staying there last year.
This is all crazy but I do support what Tressel is doing I think it is showing his loyalty and his word to those players. I am interested to see if Ohio State can win without their offensive weapons. In the end I just hope the best for these players and coach Tressel even thou I can’t stand Ohio state.
