Great honor and VERY happy to see this
Johnny sure got off a rough start to his OSU career and I know many were down on him in the beginning, but this shows how you need to really trust in the players and coaching staff at times.
He has become one of those punters that has excelled to the point where he has been instrumental in OSU wins.
I’m looking forward to seeing him play this season.

Frosh year was rough, but he sure has come around as a key component of the Beavs defense.
But even that year, I know they weren’t Ray Guy sky high 70 yard punts or anything but think back to the SC game and his placement of punts to keep the Trojans deep. And he had some nice moments in that win over Cal too that season. And he has only got better (just keep him out of the desert cross winds though!).
