It may just be spring football, but Ryan Day is still trying to find different ways to motivate his Ohio State players.
The Buckeyes had a special guest – who just so happens to be a familiar face – on Tuesday.
Former Ohio State basketball player Michael Redd paid the team a visit.

“’I challenged myself to never be satisfied. I wanted to surround myself with great players to learn from & push me to be better. If you always want to be the most talented person in the room, that’s a character deficiency.’ Great words from a Buckeye legend,” said Devin Jordan, an offensive quality control coach on Day’s staff.
