TJ Shanahan was expecting to attend Ohio State’s Buckeye Bash BBQ in July.
Then, life happened.
A prime OSU offensive lineman target for 2023, Shanahan was given the news two weeks ago that his father accepted a contracting job in Austin, Texas. In an instant, the 6-foot-4, 300-pound four-star lineman realized he’d be packing up and moving from Orlando, Florida, the only home he’s ever known.
“That was right around the period I could have made it up (to Columbus), but we had so much stuff to move so it didn’t end up working out,” Shanahan told Eleven Warriors.
