Great article but Paul Keels is the "voice of the Buckeyes" so I beg to differ on that singular point. In the article it says the "voice of Otterbein athletics" so I'm good with that and avid Buckeye supporter is fine with me as well. Damn shame though at only age 59. Ugh

“Ohio Stadium is an unbelievable facility. It's iconic. And one of the reasons we changed the artificial turf was to make it more usable,” Smith told Eleven Warriors on this week’s Real Pod Wednesdays. “We have five concerts in the stadium this summer. We just had the George Strait concert and Chris Stapleton in that place, broke records. We have four more coming up in August. So I really feel like our injury prevention program and our sports science is the best there is. And so we're going to continue to make sure that we focus on that and preparing our student-athletes for whatever turf they play on. And hopefully, those surfaces that don't have the E-Layer piece underneath it will add that over time. And hopefully people will replace their artificial turf more frequently, then you mitigate that.

“So haven't thought about (replacing the turf with grass) yet. It may come to us. It's always a possibility. But at this point in time, it’s something that we're not prepared to do.”
