Ohio State Football Coach Jim Tressel comes to Stony Brook

Me and Coach Tressel

Our athletic department was very fortunate to have Coach Tressel come speak today about his life, coaching, working in athletics, his values, and life lessons. Everyone in our department was given his book, The Winners Manual, at the beginning of the year. He is a phenomenal speaker and I can honestly say everyone can take something positive from his knowledge and experience. When he started, I decided to forgo taking notes and just listen. But after a few minutes, I found myself scribbling away and finished with over a page. It was an infinitely worthwile experience.
