Skull Session: Remembering the Fall of Jim Tressel, Ezekiel Elliott Embraces Competition, and '18 Recruits Talk Ohio State's #Brand

The day after Memorial Day, where Americans stagger into work hungover and the GDP dips 30%. This is what people mean when they use the phrase "American exceptionalism."

SALUTE TO THE FALLEN JIM TRESSEL. It's wild to think five years ago today we were in shock over the Memorial Day "resignation" of Jim Tressel, the championship Buckeye coach we all knew and loved.

Tressel's actions led to a 6-7 season and a loss in something called the TaxSlayer.com Gator Bowl. If Urban Meyer hadn't been a free agent, perhaps Tressel's legacy would be remembered in a much darker light.
