At 2:24 p.m. Eastern on an unassuming Friday during the college football offseason, the city of Columbus, Ohio, collectively stopped consuming oxygen. The people of this great football town hugged loved ones in despair. They frantically made phone calls and sent text messages seeking out answers and guidance.
National championship hero-quarterback Cardale Jones announced he was leaving the program through his Twitter account:
It was a rough decision but I think it's best for me, like to thank OSU for this amazing opportunity but my time here has came to an end ud83dude14
