I think the SAT he took must have been on a scale of 2400 (with a writing test). I think it translates to him being the top quartile of all test takers, which is admirable. I may be in the dark about something, since high school is a relic from a distant past at this point.

Good writeup, as usual, Vico. Looking forward to the book.

1710? Wow. I thought 1600 was perfect. Obviously they changed the scoring, so what is the highest score now?

Tom Zbikowski ran like a 10.5 100m dash. I also remember him almost catching Santonio, and he almost caught Pittman on his TD run at the end of the game too. That’d be awesome if Domicone could replicate that kind of hustle.

What? I thought ABC Sports loved stories that have nothing to do with the game. Just once tell me that our boy Tommy Z is a boxer…If I could learn one fact like that in every game I would be better off (and a morally stronger person). They don’t even have to be true for all I care…just make them up…

seriously, I had no idea Tom Zbikowski is a boxer. None! Was I the only one who was left out of the loop on this? Why was I also not informed of AJ Hawk dating Brady Quinn’s sister? This world is crazy. I NEED TO KNOW THESE ALL TOO IMPORTANT FACTOIDS.

If only NBC and ABC/ESPN took time out of their coverage on Charlie Weis’ super geniusy geniusness to let me know that Tom Zbikowski was a boxer. If just for a few seconds out of a game, just once… or maybe 8 or 9 times in a game. You would think they would be on that.

But to get on track, remember that Zbikowski also took a good angle on Ted Ginn to hold him to like a 20yd gain whereas if he had beaten Zbikowski, he would’ve had another TD. Zbikowski , to his credit, was all hustle on those type of plays.

You didn’t know Tom Zbikowski was a boxer? … Really? Were you too busy looking down the jersey of Brady Quinn’s sister? You couldn’t get away from that on TV (Tom’s boxing and Brady Quinn’s sister).

Oh, you must just be yanking my chain. Surely, you knew.

I clearly remember Zbikowski running down, and nearly catching, Santonio Holmes in the bowl game. Santonio slowed-up and started celebrating just shy of the goal line.

The mystery man who was the last player from Beavercreek HS to play at OSU is Randall Cowman. Rosters from that era list him as a CB and he wore #11. As far as I can tell that’s about it for his accomplishments.
