(Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images) Former Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel is reportedly back in the prowl after serving his five-year show cause penalty. According to Pittsburgh Sports Now, Tressel is interested in the vacant Pitt athletic director job. "I'm told that (Jim) Tressel has reached out, possibly multiple times, to a member of a major search firm asking about Pitt and expressing his interest. Keep in mind, to this point, this has been a one way street (as far as I know). Pitt hasn't spoken to or even begun the process of forming a list of candidates. " Former athletic director Scott Barnes was named Oregon State's athletic director Thursday night, and it evidently took less than a day for Tressel to reportedly float his name.
