DB Sonny Gordon (1986 captain, R.I.P.)

Didn't find a thread about Sonny but after learning he had passed I wanted to recognize him. Sonny played DB during my time at OSU. His biggest moment was blocking a punt for a safety in the Shoe as the Bucks upset #1 Iowa, 22-13 in 1985.

He spent a few years in the CFL after one year with the Bucs. He died last week after a three-year battle with ALS. Sonny Gordon was 57 years old.

Thanks. I had heard of his passing as well on social media. Very sad. Very strange that 2 of that very good secondary have died from ALS. William White being the first. Now Sonny.

Sonny was same year as me….high school class of 1983

A great moment from, perhaps, my all time favorite Buckeye win.

RIP

Your all time favorite win isn’t a version of The Game?
