Be at peace, Todd. My thoughts are with the Bell family.

Very sad indeed. When I think of Todd Bell I always think of him stripping Charles White of the ball in the '80 Rose Bowl to keep us in the ball game. He was always around the ball, always hustling, always making big plays. Go #25!

Very sad indeed and he was making a great contribution in his present job. A great Buckeye. God bless Todd, go well.

Sad to hear. Total class act. Only 46? Too young to happen.

Rest in peace Buckeye.

A blocked punt vs.
Michigan in 1979, resulted in a TD
by Todd Bell. This lead Ohio State to
an undefeated regular season.

I agree with all the above, very sad situation. best wishes to all the family.
