how about tressel in the nfl?
For years people on here have talked about the possibility. One would think tress might be interested in the browns position.

Perfect fit for Tressel. Every NFL team is looking for a 60+ year old coach who is ultra conservative on offense and loves the punt. Plus his pet dog Bollman is now available to shine his shoes.

Sorry about the additonal thread on tressel. I don't live on here like some of you. Yeah guys like tressel are over the hill and must have forgotten everything about football. Old, consevative guys like tom coughlin cant win super bowls... wait he's won a couple. I think it would be interesting to see him in the nfl.

Show me an example of a successful NFL coach who started his career at 60+. You Tressel leg humpers just can't accept reality.

Age is a valid point. Tressel's ability to win in the NFL is really what many people here have been talking about (ie, his style, etc). Most who have posted about that subject believe he could (including me).

I've always seen JT as more a teacher rather than an nfl type. Just doesn't seem a fit IMO.

Tressel is too soft and gutless to make in the NFL.

Tressel's philosophy fit the NFL about 10 years ago, but with the more up tempo type of game being played, I am not sure he would be a good fit today.

Re: how about tressel in the nfl?
Do you honestly believe that football is so complex that Tressel couldn't adjust his philosophy? Like he'd be sitting around scratching his head at the borderline rocket-science that is an NFL playbook? Think of all the complete numb-skulls (coaches and players) in the history of the NFL who have understood NFL Xs and Os, and you don't think Tressel has the mental capacity to adjust? brutus24 wrote: Tressel's philosophy fit the NFL about 10 years ago, but with the more up tempo type of game being played, I am not sure he would be a good fit today. |

Re: how about tressel in the nfl?
Y'town Penguin, Not to the extent he would have to to win. He was slow to change because he won doing what he knows, so that makes it hard to change. Look how long it took JoePa to change. He and Tressel won the same way. Could he change? Yes, but I think he is more of a college coach, where you teach than a pro coach where you flat out coach X's and O's. I would take him back in a heartbeat at OSU if it was not for Urban.

I would question if he has the desire. I would question if he has the energy coaching requires. I don't know if JT would be a good fit in the NFL today, but he has never struck me as a coach that cannot adapt and evolve. How many times did CK run the read option in 2002? Answer: more than a few.
Men who are authentic become relevant. Men who compromise authenticity to be relevant become corrupt.

Re: how about tressel in the nfl?
BuckMac7, I do not disagree with you to an extent, but when push came to shove he would run the ball and punt it for field position more times than he would try to make a play to get the first down. He was a conservative coach and that is not a knock, but a reality and his style won. A leopard does not change its spots. You get what you see and as I said I would take Tressel back any day of the week if Urban was not here.

You get what you see and as I said I would take Tressel back any day of the week if Urban was not here. Tressel's conservatism is overrated. He took far more risks than most fans either realize or care to admit. The Colts interviewed him twice for their HC position last year. If I was an NFL GM, I would have real questions about his age and his desire to coach either at all again or in the League, but not about his ability. JMO. |

Tressel has as much of a chance of coaching in the NFL as Hoke does of passing up a free Grand Slam breakfast at Denny's.
