Ohio State football coaches Jim Tressel, John Cooper and Earle Bruce had some special guests at this year's Buckeye Football Spring Kickoff on Wednesday. The coaches were joined by Super Bowl MVP Santonio Holmes and Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau. Proceeds from the event were donated to The Tressel Family Fund For Cancer Prevention and The Earle and Jean Bruce Alzheimer's Research Fund at the Ohio State University Medical Center.
LeBeau took the stage next and discussed his time as a Buckeye and in the NFL. He has spent 45 years in the league and has won two Super Bowls as a defensive coordinator.

"This is like a trip back home for me. Coach Cooper and I worked together," he said. "Coach Earle and I have been friends for longer than either of us would like to admit. I never got to work for or play for coach Tressel, but the Lord was smiling down on Ohio State when he brought that man to Columbus."
