It&#8217;s about the teams that you had the good fortune to be a part of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tressel&#8217;s 10 Ohio State teams were routinely elite. The Buckeyes appeared in a BCS bowl game in eight of his 10 years. They captured the Big Ten title in seven of his 10 years. Tressel posted a 94-22 record at Ohio State, though that mark would be 106-22 if not for the school vacating 12 victories from the 2010 season.<\/p>\n<p>That season was Tressel&#8217;s last in Columbus. The coach and the university parted ways in May 2011, following six months of questions about tattoos, suspensions and half-truths.<\/p>\n<p>Tressel, now the president at Youngstown State, has not coached since. He spent part of the 2011 season with the Indianapolis Colts as a game day replay consultant. He then became an administrator at the University of Akron.<\/p>\n<p>His name seemingly pops up every year amid discussions for coaching vacancies.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think that Jim Tressel will ever coach again?
