WR Thad Jemison (Official Thread)

[Buckskin86]

Hazell brings in another Buckeye to KSU...

Another Ohio State product, Jemison played wide receiver for the Buckeyes from 1980-83 before being selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 1984 NFL Draft. He brings nearly 20 years of experience coaching at the high school level, while also providing instruction and mentoring to students with learning and/or physical disabilities. He has spent the past seven summers working closely with Hazell as the top wide receiver instructor at the Buckeyes' football camps, in addition to participating last year in OSU's mentoring program with freshman football players. A native of Cincinnati, Jemison is a 2009 graduate of Ohio State.

I'm confused...

played wide receiver for the Buckeyes from 1980-83

and

A native of Cincinnati, Jemison is a 2009 graduate of Ohio State.

Did he just decide graduate 25 years later?

2 things that I think are wrong from his bio:

1. he actually played in 1984....January 1, 1984...as he scored the game winning 44 yard TD pass from Tomczak against the Foge Fazio coached Pitt Panthers

2. he is from Detroit....not Cincinnati

1. he actually played in 1984....January 1, 1984...as he scored the game winning 44 yard TD pass from Tomczak against the Foge Fazio coached Pitt Panthers

1980-1983 seasons. The Jan 1, 1984 bowl game is still considered a part of the 1983 season...

Even though he caught the winning TD pass in the 1984 Fiesta Bowl, so many here would rather waste their time pissing and moaning over a former OSU QB because he doesn't spend his national TV gig slobbering all over Ohio State.

That some of the pissers and moaners never spent a single day as an OSU student is fucking hilarious.
