COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State football’s most famous fan is at it again using the internet tell the world that in another life he would’ve been a Buckeye.

Ohio State football coach Ryan Day said LeBron James would have to earn his playing time with the Buckeyes in an interview with Jimmy Fallon.

Ohio State fans and dignitaries gathered at Ohio Stadium on Sunday to celebrate the Buckeyes' 2024 national championship run. Ohio State bested Notre Dame 34-23 in the College Football Playoff National Championship last week to win its first crown since 2014 and third since 1970.

Jim Knowles made college football history over the weekend, becoming the highest paid defensive coordinator ever when he jumped from Ohio State to Penn State for a salary that will reportedly top $3 million per year.
