Wil Huber played in almost every game last year at LB as well...he made that transition late in the '19 football season.

Not spring game per se but spring practice related. UC has had a couple really cool videos the last couple days.

Here's coach Miller at practice

And this Gino video is freaking awesome. Also look at the players responding on twitter to the video. Whatever Gino is selling, those guys are buying.

Both of those are great! I'd love to see Wes v. Sauce. Have a feeling Wes wouldn't catch anything.

Dantonio in the house early in the Gino vid.

I bet he'll be around quite a bit now that he's retired. I wonder if Jim Tressel has been to Nippert since Luke has been coach. Anyone know?

As a university president, I am guessing his schedule is pretty hectic. However, I heard him on a radio show a couple years ago and he knew quite a bit more than I expected about the history of UC athletics, citing some classic FB players and of course hoops.

Perhaps with his nephew in the fold we might actually get him down for a game.

That would take some serious chutzpah given how he left and how he raided the roster on his way out. I'd be perfectly happy to not see the name "Dantonio" in any proximity to UC Football.

Considering his words and actions on the way out it takes a lot of balls for him to show up.

We had some good times under Dantonio on the way up the football program ladder - he was a part of the UC football renaissance. I look at it this way...if Big Fick wants Mark on campus or around the football program then I'm good.

As I remember, Dantonio was also a mentor for Fickell and was one of the people he consulted before accepting the job at UC.

Let's get Jim and Roy to some games this year - VIP seats.
