Yep. Tressel killed his chances of coaching in the Big Ten again.

No way

Not a fan of Illinois football, but even if they had a head coaching vacancy Tressel's college coaching days are done. The show-cause sanction means that for the next 5 years anyone who wants to hire him has to have a damn good reason why they want to or they face sanctions from the NCAA.

This. From what it sounds like even with good reasons the team that hires him will have sanctions. Good question in five years, not today though. No team would take him on let along the Illini
