Jim Tressel is a man who remembers where he came from. Last year, he showed that by attending the final football game of his alma mater when Berea High School merged with Midpark. This year, the Berea native will go back to his Division I-AA roots (now referred to as FCS).
Tressel has generously agreed to present the Eddie Robinson Award at The Sports Network FCS Awards Banquet. The Eddie Robinson Award is given to the top coach at the FCS level. Tressel, who four national championships at Youngstown State, was the 1994 reciepent of the Robinson award.
"I'm proud to be able to do it," Tressel said. "It is the most prestigious coaching award in the nation at the FCS level."
