Quote From Jim Tressel on the Downing Matter

Downing was arrestred on the street in Columbus for trafficking drugs.

"I don't want to get on the pulpit, but there's a big difference between what you do and who you are," Tressel said. "Sometimes, I hate to say it, because all the aunts and uncles and everyone else telling us we're out of this world, we start thinking that what we do is what gives us our value. We've just got to keep working on helping ourselves understand that it's who we are that really is important."
