In the first meeting between Mike Weber and Kevin Wilson, Ohio State’s new offensive coordinator dropped a name that quickly captured the attention of the Buckeyes’ running back.
Adrian Peterson.
“That was the first thing he said to me when I met him,” Weber said Sunday.
If Wilson was trying to get Weber to buy in, name-dropping a player like Peterson is a pretty good way to start things off.
Wilson was the Sooners’ offensive coordinator while Peterson was in Norman and under his direction, Peterson emerged as one of college football’s most dominant running backs in the modern era.
