Ohio State Football: Time for Jim Tressel to be honored

The Ohio Stadium ring of honor is one of the most prestigious and exclusive honors any former Ohio State football player or coach could possibly receive. With only two coaches in the ring, which includes Paul Brown and Woody Hayes, it is time for a third name to join them.

Former Buckeye head coach Jim Tressel deserves to have his name added to rafters below the C-deck of the Horse Shoe. With one famous speech given at half time of an Ohio State basketball game on January 18th, 2001 Tressel changed the tide of Ohio State football forever.
