Ohio State Holds Preseason Practice At Pro Football Hall Of Fame
As a way to break up the grind of fall camp, Ohio State hit the road and held Thursday’s preseason practice at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton.
The Buckeyes arrived at approximately 11:30 a.m., at which time they conducted their 14th practice of preseason camp. They were then greeted by Pro Football Hall of Fame president and CEO C. David Baker, the person who informs players of their induction into the Hall of Fame.
“This game is about the opportunity to be a better person, a better man, a better husband and father,” Baker told the team. “This game teaches us so many lessons.”
From there, the team broke up into small groups and toured the Hall of Fame. That meant seeing busts and other memorabilia from the 10 former Ohio State coaches and players currently enshrined, including the father of freshman linebacker Jalen Pace (offensive tackle Orlando Pace).
Filmmaker Ed Sabol, an Ohio State alum who founded NFL Films, is also in the hall.
“This was a great opportunity for our team to bond,” head coach Ryan Day said. “For our players and staff to have the chance to learn more about the game of football at a place that’s right here in our own state is just an awesome thing.”
