Roman Wilson: A Day in the Life
This popped up on my algorithm, thought it would be interesting enough to share.
I like these little windows into the lives of student athletes. Definitely nothing earthshattering here, but I'd say if you've got a free 8 minutes of life, this isn't a bad view.
Some highlights for those not inclined to watch:
Video captures leadup to the MSU game
Roman has a cute dog
They spend a little time practicing catching night punts
Roman gets a parking ticket
Some cool looks inside the locker room / practice facility / mud room
A bunch of teammates are featured (but I suck at identifying guys other than Max Bredesen and Donovan Edwards who are easily identified)

I never would have found this on my own, and this was really entertaining - thanks for posting!

Dude, this is cool. The camera view around the stadium shows a great size perspective.
Seems like a nice kid.

YouTube channels could be a great way for players to make money on NIL. Super easy to set up, they just have to put out good content. This video isn’t necessarily going to be viral enough to make any money, but if a group of players worked together to make a joint channel and post more videos, it could be a decent little money maker.

Thanks for posting!
Speed kills and he’s one of the fastest in the country. Also seems like a great guy- we are lucky to have him. Looking forward to watching him take the top off tBuckeye defense!

Cameo by Lavert Hill!

So cool. Thanks for posting.

I watched that entire video. I am not sure why it is so fascinating watching videos like these but I am thankful for how much blood, sweat, and tears athletes put into providing enjoyment for a fan base. Go Blue!

important to remember they also do it for themselves! it wouldn't work if there wasn't personal stakes of guys working to get to the league/keep or earn scholarship etc.

I enjoyed that, thanks for posting.

I read the news today, oh boy

I know it didn't show much, but the chemistry on the team seems really strong. Couldn't be prouder of our boys in maize and blue!

That was awesome.
November 3rd, 2022 at 7:24 AM ^
I saw Andrel Anthony, Upshaw, Sainristil, Junior Colson, Darrius Clemons (was the guy mentioned as being the last to leave the field), and the GOAT Leon Franklin. JJ was also spotted in the background getting ready for practice.

Petition to call him Crocs in the same way that Denard was Shoelace. Looks like he can catch and kick punts in those!

Love me some Roman Wilson. Not questioning any coaching. I'm at least smart enough to know that I have no understanding of the intricacies of football played at this level. However, I sure would be thrilled to see more balls going Roman's way. Sticky hands and awesome after the catch with those afterburners.

All the players on this team so to be good people and be having fun. That is a great culture to have for a program.

A fun video that will make me cheer for him even harder ... and, hoping he not only gets open and is targeted; but also completes the reception for six.
"A Day in the Life" brings back some familiar (though a bit aged) lyrics... full credit to The Beatles.
"Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream"

Looked like AJ received the punt sounded like Roman called him Antwan.
November 3rd, 2022 at 1:34 PM ^
He's Antiwan Henning, Jr., so other players on the team and coaches might call him "Twan", so that when "JJ" and "AJ" are on the field during practice or games, yelling at or calling for "JJ" won't mean that they're calling for "Twan".
