- #1 trending on YouTube. 1Million views and 63k likes. What a day, what a moment. Shoutout to everyone! Have a great weekend 🔥
- Replying to @J_RedGThere was a point in time where I asked @corybarlog a very important question.. Even though it wasn’t the biggest game, I had went from nothing to something and how fast it came caused me to almost stop indefinitely. Cory responded in a way that was SUPER relatable.
- Real life dream come true. To see my name in something that means something to so many people is humbling. This is why I got into the industry. I hope this game feeds families and creates memories. Go be great. It’s been an honor yall, genuinely🫡. #CFB25 Go @OhioStateFB!
