We met with Jim and I asked him if he would serve as lieutenant governor of the state of Ohio. I'm pleased to say that he told us yes. And Today I will be sending his [Jim Trestle's] name to the Senate and to the House. I'll be sending the name of Jim Tressel. I'll be nominating him to be Ohio's next lieutenant governor. I first met Jim a number of years ago, but I really got to know him when he became president of Youngstown State. (04:06–04:11)
