The agent of former Ohio State football coach and current Youngstown State President Jim Tressel said in a phone interview Tuesday he has not received calls from Nebraska, which just fired Bo Pelini Sunday.

Dr. John Geletka, who served on YSU's Board of Trustees for 15 years and helped hire Tressel to originally coach the Penguins, said Tressel just signed a contract this summer with Youngstown State.

"He made a three-year commitment to Youngstown State, and if there's one thing about Jim, it's that he honors his commitments," said Geletka, also a prominent dentist in the Youngstown area and a member of YSU's Athletics Hall of Fame. Geletka, who said he at one time represented just-fired Nebraska coach Bo Pelini, returned the World-Herald's call Tuesday after returning from a 10-day trip overseas.

Geletka said he didn't think Tressel would apply for a job or listen to offers at this stage of his tenure at Youngstown State.
