RB Ezekiel Elliott (All B1G, All-American, National Champion, Pro Bowl, All Pro, New England Patriots)

Just watched the announcement. It's obvious that EZE has a LOT of heart. Buckeyenation will make sure you will NOT regret this decision. You will be set up for life after football, whether thats in 4 years or 24 years. Congratulations Elliott family!

Watched the announcement and I think I actually cried a lil bit. Way too much stress put on these young men. He is special and I wish him best of luck. His old man stressing the education is paramount. He is surrounded by good people.

Welcome to BuckeyeNation.

Wow. That was tough to watch. Can't imagine the whirlwind of emotions going through that kid's and families mind in the past 48 hours. It was obvious he has his heart set to play in Columbus but feels like he is letting his parents and the local fans and community down.

So much pressure on these kids. It had to be hard to say no to a school you knew so well and grew up being a part of, where your parents were great athletes, to go to a place where he felt he could be a part of something special.

I think the parents need to be applauded for allowing Zeke to make the best decision for Zeke as hard as it may have been.

Really excited to have this kid in Columbus. I just hope he doesn't get home sick before he has a chance to make his mark @ tOSU.

This is the type of kid who gets it. He'll be a great representative for Ohio State, and not "just" the football program, for the next 50 years.

Not hard to see where he gets it. His parents are clearly very proud of Missouri and have done an outstanding job raising their son.
