12. Eddie George
When Eddie George was awarded the 1995 Heisman trophy, he forever sealed his name into Ohio State football’s highest ring of honor. Not bad for a guy that just three years before appeared to have fumbled away his chance at stardom.

As a freshman, Eddie burst out of the gates with a three-touchdown performance in just his third game as a Buckeye. But when he fumbled twice inside the five two weeks later, the young phenom was suddenly riding the bench.

George considered leaving Columbus, but instead of packing his bags, Eddie stayed put and poured everything he had into fulfilling his dreams.

Two seasons later, Eddie was back on the field. The season after that, he made history.
