He was back on campus for the kickoff of the Centennial Campaign back in '04 or '05 (can't remember which year). I remember him doing some sort of speech in the Falcon's Nest while he was there, and though I didn't see it, I imagine the general sentiment of his remarks were: "And then I left this podunk place and became a Buckeye fan." :roll:

On to more important things, I was totally impressed with Freddie's interview! He looked very comfortable on camera, just like a pro who has been doing that kind of thing for years. I was also impressed with the kind of props he handed out to all of his team mates - I can't imagine a player having a better attitude.

And that shirt looked fantastic. I'm so happy that Seal Brown is being worked into our marketing efforts. :)

Hands down Barnes is a great and humble guy who deserves to get the spotlight. He was simply unbelievable and I hope he has repeat performances the rest of the season lol.

Kind of off topic, but at freddiebarnes.com, the image on the left side of his logo is one that I took during the Boise St. game... kind of cool.

I love how jay never mentioned he went to bg. it would have been amazing if freddie called jay out for not representing bg as an alumni. anyways i was eating lunch when he spoke in the union that year. basically nobody was listening to him and all he was talking about was how fun it was to live in rogers and basically how he got started in the media business.

Figures. I bet he lived in Sandusky, though and claimed Perkins for football purposes.
