Um, can you imagine yourself three years ago being the person you are now and, and now leaving Ohio State whenever it happens, whether it's one week or three weeks from now? Like, with the legacy that you're leaving here, is it something that you would've ever imagined, uh, about yourself as a man?
Gee ScottGUEST
I think there's-- I think what has taken place in my life and the lives of other people on this team, uh, and I know that, that this, I'm here to talk about football, but it's a true testament of the Lord that I serve.
Gee ScottGUEST
Um, His word promises that He'll take your heart of stone and make it a heart of flesh, and that He will soften you in making you, uh, more into His image when you take on your cross and know Him.
Gee ScottGUEST
And just when I look back on my journey and the things that I've been through, even that question that you just asked me, it kinda made me a little emotional just because when you said that, for whatever reason, I just thought back to some years ago when I, um, when I headbutted that, you know, guy from TM North, and just the amount of public ridicule that I received from that and the, and the anger that I received in that.
speaker_7UNKNOWN
Do you, do you feel that special, uh, hum or whatever you wanna call it about this team at this moment?
Brock HuardHOST
And then the episode Tuesday night really got – didn't it showcase your guy as much as anything could showcase Jackson Smith and Jigba?
Gee ScottGUEST
Like, it's really cool, right, seeing experts, right, come around and be like, yo, this dude's different.

Gee ScottGUEST
I, you know when I'm in a bad mood, you know when things, life is good, you know when ...
6 MINS LATER
Gee ScottGUEST
And, um, I was having fun, and I think the reason why is I'm super excited that football is back.
Gee ScottGUEST
Like, this might sound crazy, but yo, um, the hype is real right now, and I think it helps that they won a Super Bowl.

Mike SalkHOST
One, can he play? And two, is there any risk to the cohesiveness of the unit, which has been one of the things that has really allowed them to be as good as they are?
Gee ScottGUEST
First of all, I know you guys have been talking about HBO's Hard Knocks and the Seahawks being on there, but I didn't get a chance to talk about it with you guys.
Gee ScottGUEST
First, I want to just start off by saying it was better than I thought it would be.
Gee ScottGUEST
Number two is also exactly like I thought it would be as far as I'm glad the world is getting to see that this team's different.
Mike SalkHOST
I want to make sure we have time for something you thought was so important that you wanted to tell the whole world about it.

If you can step up, who has started to step up in your eyes for a place like what you've got?

I feel like we've had leaders from last year that came back, and I feel like we have new guys that stepped up into their roles and their rooms and around the team that are becoming leaders.

... as you transition positions.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
I'd say, um, when it comes to that, I think it's all the glory to the Lord, man.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
I, I decided to give my life completely to the Lord, uh, a little over a year ago, and that kind of really changed my outlook on the way that I approach football.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
And I think from the time in my life where I stopped, you know, compartmentalizing who God was in my life, God wasn't just something that I do on Sundays or something that I do in a Bible study, it was some- it, it went from what I do to who I am.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
And so, um, some of the fruits of the Spirit is, um, peace, patience and kindness.

Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
I mean, every day just having somebody to push you to want to be better and, uh, having those conversations, I mean, we're definitely gonna need him.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
So I mean, we're definitely gonna have to have him in the stretch, and, uh, it's just great to have him, honestly.
speaker_62UNKNOWN
The other safeties, when you're out there kind of knowing what everybody's doing, is that something that comes with time eventually?

Micah, how have you seen Jeremiah Smith grow over camp to be able to get this opportunity to start on Saturday?
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Um, I think, you know, it's, it's no secret that he has all the physical capabilities that you would want in a receiver.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
He could play any position on the football field, um, with his athletic ability.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
But, um, so a lot of it for him was putting together the mental piece of the game.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
You know, not just understanding what he has on a specific play, but the whole concept, um, understanding defenses, all that type of stuff.
speaker_107UNKNOWN
What have you seen faith continue to bring, uh, the team together?

Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Um, I think, you know, it's, it's no secret that he has all the physical capabilities that you would want in a receiver, really any position.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
He could play any position [chuckles] on the football field, um, with his athletic ability.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
But, um, so a lot of it for him was putting together the mental piece of the game.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
You know, not just un-understanding what he has on a specific play, but the whole concept, um, understanding defenses, all that type of stuff.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
So, um, there's nothing really that can get you ready for that moment, for your first snap in college, 'cause it is different than high school.

Billy FesslerGUEST
Um, you know, and, and having that total command because I think, you know, a big part of, of trust, um, is showing that, you know, I'm competent
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
And so Will built that trust in his teammates by showing that, you know, he was extremely competent, you know, that he understood everything and all the ins and outs, and he could tell everybody on the field what to do.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Um, and from there, then he built it, you know, grabbed on and grabbed the trust of all of his teammates, and then he could start to lead.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Um, so, you know, the biggest thing, it's, it's tough to say, um, but I think that everything that he did was kind of built off this total understanding of what we were trying to do offensively.
speaker_168UNKNOWN

Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Honestly, over the spring and summer, this off-season, I feel like I've toned up my body a, a lot, and I got stronger in the weight room.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
But I've also gotten a little bit faster, so I can get in and out of, uh, breaks a little bit better.

speaker_114UNKNOWN
But at what point did it become clear to you that you guys were gonna be able to kinda hang your hat on running the ball the way you are now?
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
I think, I think just kind of going against our team, uh, especially and specifically against our offense, I think there's just too many things you have to respect.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
Like, you got to respect the perimeter, and you have to respect the run game.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
You have to respect, you know, the stretch, the inside zone, all the different things that we can do, putting the ball over the field and perimeter, or even taking shots down the field.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
That just leaves, um, gaps and, um, the ability to catch the ball for, you know, six and seven and eight yards.
speaker_117UNKNOWN
Who were maybe some of the veterans the last few years that, you know, you kind of were able to learn from as well and noticed that they were pretty good leaders as well?

I th- I think just kinda going against our team, uh, especially, and specifically against our offense, I think there's just too many things you have to respect.

Like, you gotta respect the perimeter, and you have to respect the run game, you have to respect, you know, the stretch and the inside zone, all the different things that we can do, putting the ball over the field and perimeter, or even taking shots down the field.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
That just leaves, um, gaps and, um, the ability to catch the ball for, you know, six and seven and eight yards.
Gee Scott Jr.GUEST
So, um, I guess to answer your question, the more dynamic we're able to be on the perimeter, the more we're able to connect when we hit, um, on shots, um, I think the better it's gonna be able to, uh, open up the run game as well.
