He burned way too many bridges at Nebraska when he left. That gets some people's attention to be wary. He has a an intense personality that seems to get him in trouble that PR has to clean up. He still is owed 7.9M from Nebraska. He's going home and he will be fine.

Bo was born in Youngstown.

 

Went to high school there.

 

He could probably turn them into a D-Iaa power, and would be appreciated.

 

They already are a D-1AA power. Have been pretty much for decades.

And he can't stay quiet even on the way out at Nebraska. He went to some Gillispie-esque levels on alienating one of the most passionate fan bases in the nation.

I should have said power again.

 

During the 90's they were a power, but they've not been a power for a while.

 

 

They've only made the playoffs once since 2000.

I believe their greatest success was when Jim Tressel was there. In fact, I think that's what helped put him on the radar for the OSU job. I don't know that they've done much since he left, though.

Isn't Tressell back there now though? Maybe some type of official capacity?

I believe he's president of the university.
