Regardless...he was not forced, Tressell was.

He signed his contract only a day or two before the second to last preseason game. Most likely to quick to put him out into action as he could be subject to injury without having gone through all of the conditioning.
Game 4 as well ?
Considering game 2, 3 and 4 were played within 12 days and Game 3 and 4 were only 5 days apart, Yes.
Remember that he signed on 8/25 and their last game was on 9/2. Not much time to be in proper conditioning to take some hits.
As the article mentions, all hires like this have to be reviewed and confirmed with the NFL (I suspect most contract positions like this are), could be much ado about nothing. Will be interesting to see if they do anything though.
And if the NCAA gives him a multi-year show cause? Will they postpone it for that entire time?Colts postpone hiring Tressel until week 7. They sited fairness to current and former OSU players.

Colts CAN'T postpone his hiring till week 7, if they do that, then his suspension is never served.
They would need to hire (which they've already done) then wait 7 weeks.
If thats the case, then someone else will handle the duties for the first half of the season and then leave when Tressel gets there ?
That wouldn't make sense.
Nobody has said that he was suspended and actually the NFL put a hold on the hiring. They needed to review the hiring before it was approved.
The NFL reviews ALL hiring's ?
This is what this is saying .... you KNOW they don't care if Joe Blo gets hired by a NFL team, but if it's Tressel, it's different ?
Thats not fair hiring.

I believe the contracts of all coaches and players have to be submitted to and approved by the league office.

Anyone remember this quote? Today is the two year anniversary of this TP gem.....
Good luck Oakland. This 6 point Wonderlic brainiac is your problem now. LOL!!!
He scored a 22. You must have missed that memo...you know the one where the guy who ADMINISTERED the test stated he scored a 22...
But please, don't let facts underscore your rant... Amazing, you want to make fun of the guy with a score that is not used...and you can't even get his bad score right after it made every single sports newpaper and news show.
Steelers GM denies Terrelle Pryor report
By John Clayton

Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor had a higher Wonderlic score than the seven that was reported earlier Wednesday, according to Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert, who administered the tests. According to Colbert, Pryor took two tests on back-to-back days in preparation for the supplemental draft.
Colbert would not confirm the score of the first test. He said Pryor's score on his second test was significantly improved and NFL teams used that number in making their evaluations. Colbert declined to disclose Pryor's score on the second test.
"The report of a seven test score is erroneous," Colbert said. "I administered both tests and I can tell you that his score was significantly higher than that. I informed all teams and scouts interested in him about the score. In scouting, we always go with the higher Wonderlic score."

So he flunked the first test and was allowed to take it over? Not sure why he was allowed to take twice. Either way, he's not a very bright kid judging by his past antics, actions and quotes. Certainly not the type of person you want in a position of leadership. #myOpinion
