Title: The Man Who Had Tressel Fired, Uh Resign Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 31, 2011, 12:28:27 PM I have read a few articles on this Trustee. Also, the fans on the boards say he is behind the Tressel ouster. He contributed a $100 mil last year to OSU. He's more interested in OSU as a public university than a football powerhouse. Read both links.

Former player named Cicero who graduated tOSU in the 1980s is now an attorney. He was the source of the emails last April 2010 sent to Tressel. SI wrote when no action was taken from Tressel concerning the emails, they were then turned over to investigators. 8) Title: Re: The Man Who Had Tressel Fired, Uh Resign Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 31, 2011, 03:14:50 PM It took more than one man's vote to get him out of there, now he may have had a lot of leverage with the other BOT to get the job done. ;) He donated $100 mil to OSU last year.
