Who is your favorite "all-time" Buckeye? Why?
My favorite is Chris Spielman. He was two years older than me in high school. Our schools never played, but I did see him on film in high school. He was unbelievable. He played offense, defense and I believe he even ran back punts. Of course his play on the field as a Buckeye and later as a professional was also phenomenal.
He would be easy to select as a favorite for his play on the field but he tops my list of Buckeye players for what he has done off the field. I admire the way he is a family man. I admire the way he took care of his wife during her battle with cancer. And I enjoy his insights about football when he is calling a game on TV.
In short, he is someone I believe is a good role model. I have always thought so.
