If proof was needed that Ohio State is embracing its new “winning over everything” mantra, all one had to do was look at the shirts Bruce Thornton, John Mobley Jr. and Devin Royal were wearing Monday.
The three met with the media, all wearing the same tee, which featured the word "winning" above a line. Below the line was written "everything." Each fielded a question about it, and it's clear there's a focus on eliminating distractions within the program.
Thornton, the Buckeyes' best player the last two seasons, passed on opportunities to play elsewhere in the transfer portal and stick out the last year of his career at Ohio State.
