Ex-Ohio State Coach Jim Tressel May Get Consideration For NFL Head Coaching Job?

Jim Tressel seems to be a long shot to get a job as an NFL head coach. Dan Pompei of the National Football Post spoke with three men who have hired NFL coaches in recent years, and none of them ever had Tressel on a short list, but two of them said they would have to at least give the former Ohio State coach some consideration. One of them cited his leadership and record, and the other spoke of his intelligence and ability to oversee. But two of the men pointed to the fact that Tressel has never been involved with the NFL, and he would be entering a foreign environment late in his career. Other concerns include his sensitivity to criticism and his fatherly coaching style, but none of them indicated that Tressel’s problems at Ohio State would eliminate him as a candidate.

Not gonna happen.

 

I don't think he would be a good fit for the NFL. He may be better at Penn State after Joe Pa finally retires.

 

Not gonna happen.

 

The Vest on the PSU sidelines? Yeah and I can turn water into vodka.
