Former Ohio State walk-on Sam Wigulsz has become one of the most prolific WRs in the FBS since transferring to Ohio, and the Buckeyes continue to support him every step of the way.
If the attendance of his one-time stablemates didn’t already speak volumes about their feelings for the longtime Buckeye, Egbuka lauded Wiglusz even further when asked about their relationship Wednesday.
If Wiglusz didn’t hear those comments at the time, his family members made sure he did soon thereafter. Wiglusz glowed with appreciation about the compliments his teammates paid him, and made sure to express his gratitude in subsequent conversations with them. Wilson and Chris Olave, who both went on to become first-round NFL draft picks, still reach out to send Wiglusz words of encouragement even while dealing with the rigors of their rookie seasons at the highest level. But the more you ask about Wiglusz around the Ohio State progam, it’s easy to see why.
Besides, Wiglusz's best chance to see more action on the field was always more likely to come at a school that doesn’t have a litany of sure-fire NFL talent at his position. Even during tough times with the Buckeyes, Wiglusz said “it was hard to disagree with who was on the field.”
