Great find BB73! I moved your post up with the rest of the current Buckeye player stuff, and moved it so it won't be buried in the '04 Recruits Forum. Everybody needs to read this!

Thanks for the inspiring article. My heart goes out to this lad to reach his dreams whether or not it includes football.

I think it was The Game where they had a quick blurb about Youboty's childhood in war-torn Liberia...in fact, it was, right after his goal-line interception. Hopefully Abdullah will make a huge play in a big game this year and the commentators will talk about his past, and folks will realize just how diverse Ohio State is as a football team and as an institution.

Although I agree that it would be great for Nader to get his story recognized on national TV, there is no way the general public will connect it with the diverseness of THE OSU football team.
It would be another "human interest" story that would be very nice to see.

I don't care if this makes ESPN or not... We all know the Buckeyes have more #93s than #13s, and most anyone else with a decent head on their shoulders knows the same thing. If Joe Fan wants to think that Ohio State is just a bunch of #13s - that's their problem, not mine.

I sat next to Nader in my econ class. He's a nice guy and his upbringing shows.

He said "we have more quality players than we have non-quality players."
#13's being the MoCs of the world, and #93's being the Naders of the world. |
