Urban Meyer to be keynote speaker for Ohio graduate celebration

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many high school graduates were forced to hold attend graduation ceremonies virtually. So, while they all received diplomas, it’s likely not what they imagined growing up. There was no walking across the stage in a cap and gown to commemorate one of life’s most memorable events.

But there are folks trying to step up. So that Ohio graduates get a bit more of a celebration, there will be a television event to help provide a little extra meat to the piece of paper they now have for so much hard work.

And, the keynote speaker is none other than former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer. He will reportedly be joined by former Buckeyes Jack Nicklaus and Archie Griffin as well according to WBNS 10 TV in Columbus.

The name of the event is “Shoutout to Ohio’s Class of 2020.” It will air on Saturday, June 6 at 7PM on WBNS as well as WTLO (Toledo), WLWT (Cincinnati), WKYC (Cleveland), WFMJ (Youngstown), WHIZ (Zanesville), and WLIO (Lima).
