Mark -- beautifully done. A great tribune to the Mighty Casey and what he built at OSU. College sports are wrapped in embarrassment these days and it becomes harder and harder for me to understand why institutions of higher education are even involved in the business (and I mean business) of being farm teams for the NFL. I guess it will someday make the miracle of Beaver Baseball seem even more unlikely. Thanks for this wonderful piece.

Good read however it gave me PTSD re-living their first title when they beat UNC
What a treat for those players to sit on a plane for 5-6 hours to get jet lagged and return the next day for class. Great job NCAA 👏
