Ohio State to Honor Tyler Trent With Moment of Silence Before Wednesday's Purdue Game

Ohio State will honor a legend on Wednesday night.

Before the Buckeyes take on the Boilermakers on the hardwood, Ohio State will honor Purdue student and superfan Tyler Trent with a moment of silence.

Tyler made a lasting impact on the Purdue community this year with his diehard fandom and his positive attitude despite his terminal diagnosis. He even predicted the Boilermakers' victory over Ohio State.

Sadly, Tyler lost his battle with cancer earlier this month, but his memory certainly lives on.

Chris Holtmann led off his press conference by discussing @CoachesvsCancer and #SuitsandSneakers.
