1980 Media Guide: Voted defensive captain of the 1980 Buckeye team … this is the third year as a regular in the secondary … equally strong defending against the pass or the run … a hard, sure tackler … will be one of the top defensive backs in the Big Ten.

1979: Started all 12 games and played 319.5 minutes, tops among all returnees … made 59 tackles, intercepted four passes, broke up four others and caused three fumbles with jarring tackles … scored a touchdown on a 27-yard interception return against Wisconsin.

High School: Was an all-Ohio back at McKinley High, where he captained the football and basketball teams.

Personal: Hobby is music.
