From: SportsByBrooks.com — Friday afternoon Rusty Miller of the ASSOCIATED PRESS reported that highly regarded Ohio State football public relations point person Shelly Poe had been re-assigned within the Ohio State sports information department.

Poe is one of the very, very few public relations persons highly respected by both the media and industry peers. (Thanks to a tireless work ethic, she was inducted into the college sports information directors Hall of Fame at a very young age.)

From the Miller AP story:

Ohio State’s top spokeswoman for the football program for the past four years has been reassigned to duties elsewhere within the school’s sports information department.

Shelly Poe, responsible for handling communications and public relations for Buckeyes football, will now oversee women’s soccer and softball, men’s and women’s swimming and all on-campus championships. She was inducted into the college sports information directors Hall of Fame in 2006. Poe was athletic communications director at her alma mater, West Virginia, from 1988 until she was brought to Ohio State in 2007.

Jerry Emig will take over football after managing for four years the same sports Poe will now handle.

If you know the backgrounds of Poe and Emig, the move by Ohio State is nothing short of stunning.

And I do mean stunning………
