Former Ohio State Buckeye football coach and current University of Akron Vice President is hosting weekly segments on Channel 3 News.
Jim Tressel, currently the Vice President of Strategic Engagement at the University of Akron and a national championship-winning football coach, has joined the Channel 3 News team as a special contributor.
Brooke Spectorsky, President and General Manager of WKYC, said "Jim's national championships as head football coach at Ohio State and Youngstown State universities are well-known to all, but his motivational speeches and best- selling books will be the basis of our "A Moment with Jim Tressel."
WKYC Interim News Director Virgil Dominic said "Jim motivates with passion but leads with compassion. We envision a weekly segment that takes daily news stories and makes them teachable moments."
"A Moment with Jim Tressel" will air each Wednesday night during Channel 3's 7 p.m. newscast.
