Dungy thinks Jim Tressel could be Irsay’s man in Indy
Posted by Mike Florio on January 23, 2012, 10:49 AM EST

During the 2011 season, a certain Internet hack with whom you may be familiar floated the notion that, once the Colts “clinch” the first overall pick in the draft, they could/should fire coach Jim Caldwell and give Jim Tressel, who has been working for the team as a replay advisor, a late-season test drive.

It never came to that. The Colts didn’t nail down the Luck (or maybe Griffin) pick until Week 17. And Caldwell wasn’t fired during the season.

Still, Tressel may get the job without a test drive. Tony Dungy of NBC’s Football Night In America said on Monday’s edition of The Dan Patrick Show that he believes owner Jim Irsay has a person in mind — and that Dungy is hearing the person may be Jim Tressel.

As long as Dungy isn’t hearing that from Rob Lowe, Tressel could indeed be the guy

So will Dungy agree to let them unretire this?

I can not see a lifer college coach being a good choice.

Aside from his 1 season as replay assistant or whatever ridiculous job they gave him Tressel looks to have been a college coach for his entire football coaching life.

That seems about right, UMN. I know that Jim Tressel was successful coaching Ohio State before a scandal there cost him his job. That being said, I'm not so sure that he's a good fit to coach the Colts, likely without Peyton Manning, next season.
