    He played an important role in tOSU football history. Herby said it best that when we beat Purdue, it opened up a new ERA in tOSU history. Brought the era of guys like Archie Griffin, Keith Byars, Terry Glenn, Chris Spielman, Eddie George.

    RIP Jack! I named one of my cats Tatum after you!

    When people talk about past Ohio State greats................when they speak of Tatum, they all just get a look of "that guy would kill you if he thought he could get away with it on the football field"

    He will be missed by Buckeye nation...............prayers and thoughts go out to his family and friends.............
