Governor Mike DeWine wants a former OSU football coach to be his second in command.

Nearly a month after DeWine chose Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted to fill the U.S. Senate seat vacated by now-Vice President JD Vance, he's announcing his appointment of Jim Tressel, who also served as president of Youngstown State University until 2023.

The Ohio House and Senate must confirm Tressel as lieutenant governor.
