Review

Mark Rea has done a remarkable job of "personally introducing" you to some of the prominent players and coaches that helped develop this great tradition. You'll learn about their childhood backgrounds and environment, their mentors and who influenced them, and why they chose to play football for the Ohio State Buckeyes. --Jack Park, Ohio State Football Analyst and Author, Commentator, The Ohio State Football Radio Network

This is one of the most thoroughly researched Ohio State football publications ever produced. After reading these stories, you'll feel like you just had fifty Buckeye Football Legends over for dinner, as well as an extended evening learning more about them! --Rex Kern, 1968 National Champion Quarterback, College Football Hall of Fame

This is a must-read for the self-described diehard Buckeye fan, and a graduate course for all those who have majored in Ohio State football! --Paul Keels, "The Voice of the Buckeyes"

Mark love your book. My good friend gave me a copy when he stopped in to see us and I couldn't put it down! Loved all the chapters especially the one on Sark.....always knew he never drove but not the reason behind it! Also, so glad you gave the credit to Chic. I had the good fortune of meeting him and have a picture of him standing behind Larry Zelina and in in our locker room after one of our 1968 games! I could go on and on about the marvelous job you have done and the tribute you have given to the Legends! --Rex Kern #10
