Answer

Fickell became the interim head coach in 2011 after Jim Tressel resigned due to a scandal involving players trading memorabilia for tattoos and other benefits. Fickell led the team to a 6–7 record, narrowly defeating rival Michigan, and was a candidate for the permanent head coaching position but was ultimately passed over in favor of Urban Meyer.
