"When you visit, when you've been here, when you truly know what the place is about, when you truly know what the foundation is, the small, little storms, you know, won't take you down," Fickell said of the trouble surrounding the program.
"Tressel is permitted to work with the team all spring, throughout preseason practice and even during the period of his suspension — just like normal. He is only required to stay away from the Buckeyes on the days of home games against Akron, Toledo, Colorado and Michigan State and the road game at Miami, Fla."
Wow... That's some tough love, right there.

So what is he exactly missing? Nothing. A more fitting punishment would have been for him to stay away from the team entirely during game preparations and the games.

And with how much he's made over the years, I doubt he's really going to be missing that bonus.
