Major: Communications

1990 Media Guide: Has jumped back and forth between offense and defense since transferring to Ohio State from John Carroll in the fall of 1987 … now at quarterback after being shifted back to that position (from outside linebacker) in the spring … the latter move was necessary because of Greg Frey playing baseball in the spring and Jason Frank being slowed by a sore throwing arm … hard worker who was converted to scholarship last year … backup holder for placements … starting QB at John Carroll as a freshman, winning MVP honors.

1989: Reserve outside linebacker … played in all 12 games as a member of the specialty teams and had three tackles.

1988: Backup quarterback until midway through the season when he was moved to safety … saw brief action in seven games, mostly with the specialty teams … had two tackles.

1987: Transfer year.

1986: Played at John Carroll.

HIGH SCHOOL: Strictly a defensive back until his senior year, when he also played quarterback … despite a 4-6 record as a senior and just one year of experience at his new position, he was named to the all-city team … also lettered two years in both wrestling and track.

PERSONAL: Hobbies are golf and water skiing … favorite football player is Joe Montana … his brother, Brian, is a wide receiver for the Buckeyes.
