May 30, 2011 - Jim Tressel will resign as head coach of the Ohio St. Buckeyes on Monday, the Columbus Dispatch is reporting. The Dispatch, which has been all over the Ohio State program in recent months, shares a memo from president E. Gordon Gee, which spells out the resignation about as clearly as possible:
I write to let you know that later this morning we will be announcing the resignation of Jim Tressel as head coach of the University's football program.
Gee says that, upon reviewing guidance from a special committee, he's decided to accept Tressel's resignation.
Ohio State football remains in the middle of a memorabilia-for-tattoos scandal and a cheap cars scandal, which have easily become conflated at times as the walls appear to close in. Tressel was already suspended for five games in 2011 -- up, at his request, from the two games he'd originally been docked -- and would've seen his team go without the services of Terrelle Pryor and others for almost half the season.
Tressel will leave with a 106-22 record as Buckeyes coach, which includes six straight Big Ten titles and the 2002 national title.

Could "Bo" leave the children of the corn & take the job at Ohio State?
Or is it just a rumor?
He did say one time that his ultimate goal was to go back to his alma mater...

Bo will leave. give him time. he will dump NU in a heart beat for the right job. although, I do think the idiot is smart enough to let the waters clear up at OSU, he is interested in the job.
nebraska is not the all powerful best job there is ....no matter what you corn heads think

I don't think Bo has ever said that he wants to go back to Ohio. In addition, he's got a better job at Nebraska, first rate facilities, supportive fans, great AD, etc....
He's also got things running well in Lincoln. He's barely missed having back-to-back conf. champions, will again have one of the nation's premiere defenses, and the new offense could be explosive with the weapons he has. In short, Bo has Nebraska lined out for big, big things.

he HAD them lined up for big things. the path to a national title got severly tougher with the move to the big 10. the cake walk through the north, and then a title shot at either UT or OU was a LOT easier than the schedule NU has in the big ten....
I doubt that any husker fan will recognize this fact...simple logic has never been a thing Husker Fans see....

| Bo only has a $250,000.00 buyout clause in his contract.

I believe Ohio State may come out of this with no more punnishment handed down by the NCAA and I predict Luke Fickell Will get the Bucks 8-9 wins which will get him a multi year contract. It would Hard for the AD to turn his head on a 8 or 9 win season with a new first year starting quarterback and all circumstances surrounding the program.
