Justin Fields is officially eligible for the 2019 season, and Buckeye nation is understandably elated.
After the decision was announced, Buckeyes past and present took to social media to celebrate.
One of the first to do so was the one passing down the throne:
Bucks always on top @justnfields Congrats lil bro, go light it up! #Reload #GoBucks

Fields' current teammates had some pleasant reactions, as well.
