So, someone gave a Buckeye trivia calendar for Christmas.  One of those things where you have a daily fact that is sure to astound and amaze.

I rarely keep up, but have made an effort to do so this year.  So I pick the thing up at work today and see a really easy piece of trivia:

Who became the first Buckeye to win a gold medal in men's basketball at the Summer Olympics in 1960?

Easy, right, then I looked at their answer:

Jerry West

Someone needs to learn how to use Wiki and then taken out and beaten with a Buckeye switch.  West was on the team, but he was no Buckeye.
