While Tressel and the university are currently discussing a deal, the Plain Dealer reports that an announcement is set to be made at 10 a.m. ET. The school became interested in adding Tressel when he helped in the school’s head coaching search that resulted in the hiring of Terry Bowden.
Tressel had been fired by Ohio State back in May over numerous scandals before joining the Colts as an assistant working in the booth.
