He was at my old high school today when I was picking up my girlfriend. He came to visit the recruit I told you guys about before.

Anyway he signed my OSU hoodie and my gf's t-shirt, and we got pictures and everything..I'll put em up later.

His 02' NCG ring was HUGE..that thing had to weigh about 5 lbs

OH
 
That's awsome. The man is really a class act.
 
The one picture came out awful, I was standing right over his shoulder because we had to huddle close to all fit in the picture and the kid pretty much cut me out..I coulda killed him.

My gf got an awesome one with him and I'll put that up when she uploads them.

He was honestly one of the kindest most down to earth guys I've ever met. My friend that you'll see in one of the pics had the best quote..

"Damn man when you talk to him it's like he makes everyone else in the room disappear and it's just the two of you..like some Bill Clinton shit or something."

He never for a second looked irritated even with kids swarming for autographs, he answered questions and even made jokes about kids wearing Michigan attire [why you would wear Michigan swag when Jim Tressel has pretty much shut down your program is beyond me.]

I didn't notice at first, but in the pictures underneath the trenchcoat was the sweater-vest :thumbup:
