Jim Tressel knew about the memorabilia sale by Pryor and others.

If Tressel failed to inform Smith or the Ohio State compliance department about the players' dealings with Rife, he could be charged with multiple NCAA violations including unethical conduct, failure to monitor and a failure to promote an atmosphere of compliance. In general, a coach is required to act on, or pass along reasonable information about possible rule violations for further investigation.

Section 4.1(d) of Tressel's contract with Ohio State stipulates that he "supervise and take appropriate steps to ensure ... members of the Team know, recognize and comply with any such laws, University Rules and Governing Athletic Rules and immediately report to the (Athletic) Director and to the (Athletic) Department's Office of Compliance Services in writing if any person or entity, including without limitation, representatives of Ohio State's athletic interests, has violated or is likely to violate any such laws, University Rules and Governing Athletic Rules."

Section 5.1 (m) of his contract also states that failure to promptly report "any violations" could lead to "termination by Ohio State for cause."

I think this is bullshtein (the NCAA regulating sales and things like this) but it appears that if this is all true the Coach Sweatervest could be in some deep shtein.

Unnecessary comment, fargface.

If there is an NFL lockout, do you think it will positively affect Temple football? With no NFL games, will the football starved Philly fans come to Temple games for their football fix?

from the temple board...anyone want to take a stab at it?

i might tailgate but i would only go into the psu game.

so the guy who runs the fiesta bowl (yes, its a full time 6-figure job to run a once a year event) was fired today because he spent company money on numerous strip club visits. in 2008.

down with a playoff! more bowl games! pay these men more money! dont give the players any money!
