Warren Buffett is an 86-year-old man who subsists on McDonalds, Coca-Cola, and ice cream. Perhaps more impressively, he's also America's third richest man (net worth: $73.9 billion) and the country's famous investor as the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, the company he purchased in 1962.

None of this, however, is worth mentioning on a blog dedicated to Ohio State athletics. What is worth mentioning is Buffett's friendship with former Buckeye coach Jim Tressel. 

In HBO's latest documentary, Becoming Warren Buffett, it's revealed the billionaire keeps a football signed by Jim Tressel in his headquarters located in Omaha, Nebraska. (NetJets, a Columbus-based subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, sells "ownership shares" to private jets.)

So it's no wonder Tressel retired from the more lucrative coaching profession to administrate Youngstown State. He's probably crushing it on the stock market.
