Welcome to the Skull Session.
Goodbye, Bye Week. Hello, Penn State Week!
Have a good Monday.
WHAT IS GRIEF? A national champion, All-American and first-round pick, Nick Mangold wasn’t just a center for Ohio State football in the early 2000s; he was the center of Ohio State football in the early 2000s.

Mangold’s death has been hard on me. Not because he was one of my favorite Buckeyes — I was 3 years old when Ohio State won the 2002 title and five when he earned those individual honors — but because he was only 41.
