You are certainly not alone my friend, wow...just an incredible story. And echoing everyone else's comments, probably my favorite recruit of this class after reading that. He will certainly be a future captain and leader of our team. Outstanding player and my favorite DB in the '17 class, but great to learn he is an even better person.

I’ve been told I have the talent to one day achieve my dream of playing in the NFL, and that’s great — but that’s not all that I think I have the talent for. In college, I want to take classes that challenge me to reconsider the way I look at the world. I want to intern at Fortune 500 companies, and to gain experience in boardrooms that are just as competitive as any locker room. And one day, I want to start a business that will ensure that my family will always be comfortable, whether football works out or not.

Wanted just to post a "happy gif," but. Good Lord. If Jeff Okudah is a "bust" on the football field (and I don't expect for a moment he will be), he will be a winner at life with this attitude. No question, I'm proud to be a Buckeye when I see a young man like Okudah will be also. Great, great recruiting triumph, and less for the talent on the field than for the quality off of it.

GO BUCKS!
