Ex Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel just got a job in the NFL? Jim Tressel, as in Terrelle Pryor's head coach? The same Terrelle Pryor that has to serve a five game suspension for something he did at Ohio State, with Jim Tressel? A blind man can see the hypocrisy! And you wonder why players spout such venom at commissioner Goodell. The whole suspension of Pryor made no sense, and the hiring of Tressel is even more mind boggling. Commissioner Goodell has preached this clean up the league banter for a while now, so I can't wait to hear his comment on the matter. When it all boils down, the players get the short end of the stick.
When I think about the Chris Webber's and Reggie Bush's of the world I realize that history continues to repeat itself. The Fab Five's record was erased and their final four banners taken down after revolutionizing the profile and marketability of Michigan. They also went to two straight ncaa finals, mostly because of Webber. Now he is just an afterthought in Ann Arbor, and that's a shame. Michigan's head coach went to the west coach and is continuing to coach. Reggie Bush brought a Heisman trophy and national championship to USC, but was thrown under the bus when his scandal broke. His coach, Pete Carrol, fled the scene and got a raise to coach the Seahawks. I ain't hatin on the coaches, but what about the players? It's not like these athletes are cheating on the field to our knowledge. These athletes earned those on field accolades with their own blood, sweat, and tears. Players, coaches, we're all human and we all make mistakes. So if the player is punished, how does the coach get a pass? Let's hear it Mr. Goodell.
