Sometimes you run across videos that make you stop and applaud — especially when it comes to making dreams come true for someone with such high character.
Terry McLaurin didn’t come to Ohio State as a polished player. Far from it. In fact, Urban Meyer has alluded to having to have some heart-to-hearts with the 6-0, 202 lb. receiver that resulted in him having to work his tail off to become a top-end wide-receiver. But at the end of the day, he did it. He not only did it by performing on the field with hard work, but his character and selflessness is second to none.
Watch as Terry McLaurin takes the call from the Redskins just before he was selected in the third round by them. The respect that he’s shown throughout his career in interviews and with the media and coaches shines through here. You can also hear the excitement in his voice knowing that he’ll be reunited with Dwayne Haskins in our Nation’s Capital.
Of course there’s also a celebration for the ages complete with shouting, tears of joy and hugs all around.
Congratulations Terry. What a well-deserved call. Folks, he’s earned it and then some.
