S Todd Bell (All B1G, Pro Bowl, R.I.P.)

Former Buckeye Todd Bell Dies Of Heart Attack
ByBUCKNUTS.COM STAFF Mar 16, 2005

COLUMBUS, Ohio: Former Ohio State football player Todd Bell died this morning of an apparent heart attack while driving his car in Columbus. Todd played defensive back for the Buckeyes from 1977 to 1980 and was a four-year starter. He was an All-Big Ten selection as a junior and senior.
Bell, who also competed on the OSU track team, had his best year as a junior, recording 87 tackles. He scored two touchdowns that year, including the winning score in an 18-15 win at Michigan where he scooped up a blocked punt and ran it into the end zone. The win sent the 11-0 Buckeyes to the Rose Bowl, where they lost a 17-16 decision to USC, costing them the national championship. In that game, the athletic Bell ran down Heisman Trophy winner Charles White from behind and stripped him of the ball to prevent a touchdown - a play that ranks as one of the great plays in Ohio State football lore.
Bell was from Middletown High School and was one of the most highly recruited football players in the nation as a senior.

Scholarship Roster By Class

One other observation at just how top-heavy our recruiting can be.

We have 43 kids rated in the top 10 at their position. Logic might indicate that we would have a similar number rated 11-20. But in fact their are only 10.

I should also mention that incoming honorable mention OL Jonah Jackson was recruited as the #170 OT and wasn't in the top 1,000 players rated.

Knee Injuries

Well, it's been over two months. Knee is still giving occasional pops and stabs of pain, which the Doc said is normal while the bone heals and the abscess fills out with marrow. Fortunately, I've been maintaining a strict Gin & Vermouth regimen to keep the knee limber. I'll see the Doc again next week, and if the internal swelling hasn't gone down, I'm on crutches for 10 days.
