Tyvis will be always one of my favorite buckeyes ever...the fact that he has been successful on the field is just a bonus...remember when he said this back in 2011 after Tressell was "resigned"?

"It is very unfortunate for coach Tressel but it doesn't affect my decision at all," said Powell of the news. "I didn't hear anything about the business school going down or falling apart and college is college, you go for an education and to play football. Ohio State is Ohio State and it always will be no matter who is wearing the headphones. I want to send a message to everyone that I'm still on board and everyone else should be as well."

Also Cardale's father.

That joke aside, Powell's positive relationship with Cardale is likely a huge part of the reason he stayed engaged enough to lead the team on its epic three game championship run rather than being totally checked out and possibly even transferring from the program.

Just kind of random, but I met both Tyvis (and Cardale). They come into a retail store (which I will leave unnamed) that I'm a manager at on occasion. I presume they live next door or something. Really nice, soft-spoken guys. I was impressed. Sometimes we forget these dudes are just college guys, like me, or anybody else. It was cool to see the face and the personality behind the helmets.
