Jim Tressel, Joey Galloway Among 14 Buckeyes to be Enshrined in the Ohio State Athletics Hall of Fame

The trolls are going to go crazy when they hear this: Jim Tressel is one of 14 Buckeye greats set to be inducted into the Ohio State Athletics Hall of Fame during a Sept. 18 dinner before OSU hosts Northern Illinois. The group will be honored on the field during halftime.

Here's what the university had to say about the Senator in a release:

Football Coach, 2001-2010 
Jim Tressel coached Ohio State from 2001-10 and guided the Buckeyes to an overall record of 94-21 with nine bowl appearances (including seven BCS games), six 10-win seasons, six Big Ten titles and a national championship all while posting an 8-1 record against rival Michigan. His 2002 team captured the Big Ten's first consensus national title since 1968, posting a 13-0 regular-season record and then defeating top-ranked Miami in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl in a 31-24 double-overtime thriller, becoming the first Division I-A school to record a 14-0 campaign in the process.

Tressel, 229-78-2 in 24 years as a head coach, also guided Ohio State to national championship game appearances in 2006 and 2007. In 2006, Ohio State opened the season at No. 1 in the polls and held that ranking throughout the course of the regular season, becoming the first team to go wire-to-wire at the top spot. In 2007, 11-2 Ohio State won another outright Big Ten title and carried the No. 1 ranking in the polls for five weeks. The 2009 season was another memorable year for Ohio State, as the team won a sixth consecutive Big Ten crown, became the first school to defeat five 10-win teams in one season and capped the 11-2 campaign with a win over Oregon in the Rose Bowl.

Tressel, of course, is only 1/14th of the 2015 contingent. Here's the full list:
