This Week in Twitter is a look at some of the week's best and most entertaining tweets from Buckeyeland and beyond.
Buckeyes past and present took to Twitter to celebrate Memorial Day, a holiday that's about remembering those who sacrificed their lives to protect our freedoms.
And Im proud to be an American, where at least I know Im free. And I wont forget the men who died, who gave that right to me. Lee Greenwood #QuietTime

Ohio State basketball was dominant not so long ago throughout much of the Thad Matta era, even if the Buckeyes didn't win a national championship. Here's to hoping Chris Holtmann's squad will get back to that in the not-so-distant future.

Just another reminder that whoever is starting at quarterback for Ohio State this season, his wide receivers will be the best in the country.

With that, yet another reminder that Ryan Day's offense will be just fine this fall, just like it always is, even though there are plenty of questions surrounding the offensive line and quarterback heading into the summer.

The Buckeyes will have a really good punter this season, which is certainly good even if we're hoping that every offensive drive ends with points.

Evan Ravenel isn't wrong. Being a college coach was already a tough job. The transfer portal (and NIL) has made it even tougher.
Imagine being a college coach and one of your top players withdraws from the NBA draft only to tell you he transferring. Wheew rough times to be a college coach
