YSU changes start time to accommodate Tressel and Ohio State

Youngstown State University was scheduled to play their home open this Saturday at 7:00 p.m....however, that time has been changed to 4:00 p.m. because of one person - Jim "Freaking" Tressel...

When Tressel was the head coach at YSU, often times his games were played at the same time that Ohio State was playing their games while John Cooper was the head coach...YSU never changed the time of their game to accommodate Ohio State football...

One time, Tressel refused to move the time of a YSU-Marshall game even though it was being played at the same time as the Michigan-Ohio State game...this YSU-Marshall game was NOT a playoff game...in fact, YSU was having one of their worst seasons under Tressel that year and was a meaningless game...

It is just funny, now that Gentleman Jim is coaching at Ohio State, the YSU Athletic Department bows down and makes sure it doesn't schedule a YSU game the same time that THE Ohio State plays...this was a courtesy that Tressel refused to do when he was the head man in Youngstown...
