Chapter One: Welcome to Armageddon
Eric Tressel was the best QB coach in the Big 10. He had been at Michigan for a couple years, as he came in with Rich Rod. He was the one who got Denard Robinson in the spot light. Since the end of the 2010-2011 season, he has been on the hot seat. Michigan fired the University's Head Coach Rich Rodriguez and hired Brady Hoke. Some thought Tressel should have gotten a shot at the job, but instead was informed he had been promoted to assistant OC. Since this past season Tressel has had his name in a lot of discussion for jobs. Rumors are he was offered jobs at IUPUI, EKU, Murray State and Youngstown State. He turned down those offers to stay in the big leagues. YSU had been where his cousion, former Ohio State University Head Coach Jim Tressel coached. Eric had always been a true fan of the Buckeyes and was hoping to take over for his cousin as the offensive play called, but he never go the call.
Recently it had been released that Michigan gave permission for the following universities to interview Tressel:
:SMU:
:Memphis:
:Army:
:BYU:
:Houston:
There has been no reports for which position they will interview Coach Tressel for, but he has recently stated he would like to bring his cousin Jim back to a coaching job. There is no certainty with the recent news of conference Armageddon and the Ohio State penalties. We will see in the upcoming weeks.
