The Ohio State football program is a tight-knit group. Everyone in the Woody supports each other through good times and bad. That building is going to need to support freshman wide receiver Carnell Tate a lot right now because his mother was just tragically killed.

Ashley Griggs, who is Tate’s mother, was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting early Sunday morning according to Chicago’s ABC 7. Four others were shot but Griggs was the only fatality. No one is currently in custody for this heinous act.

It’s extremely unfortunate that something like this happened.
