Makari Paige was working out in the weight room at West Bloomfield High School last spring when Ohio State coach Urban Meyer walked into the room.

“Everybody started working out harder,” Paige said, laughing. “I was, too. It was crazy.”

Meyer was greeted like a rock star when he walked through the school.

“It was almost like someone presidential walked through our doors,” West Bloomfield coach Ron Bellamy said.
