Player had written to Coach Richt about wanting to join the UGA football team as a walkon but was died in an accident shortly afterwards. Richt added his name to the UGA roster and gave the family a UGA jersey.

I'm not a huge OSU fan, but.... man, this sucks. Tressel just seemed like such a good guy. He never should have tried to sweep this under the rug. What a waste.
I think it's relevant to point out that I graduated from a school that HATES Ohio State but, I do have many OSU friends. As an Alumna of a Big Ten university, I recognize how much this sucks for everyone involved.
Maybe I'm in the minority but, I can't help but, think...SO WHAT? Okay-Okay...he swept it under the rug...but, really? Who cares what other people think? He should just stay where he's at. This sucks for all Buckeyes...

Sad to see what happened with Jim Tressel and the OSU program. Dude made mistakes trying to protect his kids, and who hasn't, but his program's situation came to light. It is what it is.
I wish him best in the future, he's a good man. And thanks, Coach Tressel, for a 9-1 record of dominance over Michigan. That will always bring a smile.
Sincerely,
BuckeyeNation
