RootforRoo44 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Posted November 23, 2010 Don't know if this has been posted but LINK The leaderboard for coaches only shows the top 50 or so, so no IcantCoach. He's somewhere between 0 and 173 votes though. Quote
ZipRoo Posted November 23, 2010 Report Posted November 23, 2010 Yes, how interesting is it that Mark Dantonio (currently at Michigan St.) is #2 in the poll. I bring up his name because he was a former defensive secondary coach under Jim Tressel at OSU. So, I guess Tressel aides DO have some success when they're given head coaching opportunities. Unfortunately, Proenza failed to get the memo on this, after Tressel offered AKRON our own OSU disciple, Luke Fickel, complete with a high-recommendation from Tress himself. No, the great minds at Akron, affected by too many polymers, decided that an unknown recroooter from a horrid Notre Dame program--also a guy with zero head coaching experience--would be just the IDEAL guy to lead Akron back from obscurity. Who needs any ties to the most-popular college in the state, and one of the top programs in the country? Certainly not UA! No, Akron chose a PR nightmare who not only has led us to the school's first-ever winless season, but who also has alienated his athletic co-workers, his players, the media and what little fanbase still remains. Can we all agree, this was a LOSE-LOSE hiring for all involved? Please, Can't, hire Fickel and prove once and for all that the folks in Buchtel Hall have no clue. Quote

No one here cares about Jim Tressel. And in a previous post someone stated that Tressel would donate an appreciable sum of money to UA Football if Fickel was hired. That's bribery. If true, Tressel is a weasel. Quote
