It has been 75 years since Jesse Owens rewrote the record book during the Big Ten meet in Ann Arbor Michigan. On the anniversary of this amazing feat, Sports Illustrated ran a wonderful peace that captured the essence if the never equaled accomplishment by arguably our favorite Buckeye.
You probably have heard the story before, but this piece of magnificent writing puts in a perspective I bet you have never appreciated. Every Buckeye should read this one and it's one reason I recently cast my own vote for Jesse's bust to represent Ohio in our nations capital. You should too.
