A big part of Urban Meyer's message at Ohio State is preparing for life after football and his program did just that Friday evening at Ohio Stadium when representatives from 57 companies and organizations were on hand to meet with Ohio State football players as part of the school's third annual job fair.
“Corporate America wants Ohio State people; our good people.”– Urban Meyer
The fair, in conjunction with the "Real Life Wednesdays" program, which has welcomed business leaders and executives like Dan Gilbert of the Cleveland Cavs, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, and restaurateur Cameron Mitchell has been a raging success for the team, leading to intern opportunities and opening doors for players once their playing days are finished.
Via Twitter and Instagram, here's a collection of photos from Friday evening's job fair:
