Hardship can often breed gratitude in a person.
As Will Howard met Ohio State’s media for the first time at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center on Tuesday, a player who underwent plenty of hardship during his time at Kansas State expressed great amounts of gratitude about being a Buckeye.
“I’m just so grateful to be here in this building,” Howard said. “It’s a blessing, it really is. I’ve gotta pinch myself every day that I get to come to work here.”
Battle-tested through tough times in Manhattan, Kansas, Howard enters his fifth and final season of collegiate football ready to lead the Buckeyes into 2024.
