No. 38, Three Year Starting Fullback, Vaughn Broadnax

We're counting down the days to kickoff with “99 Warriors,” the greatest Ohio State Buckeyes by jersey number, as voted by the staff of Eleven Warriors.

No. 38 Vaughn Broadnax

Perhaps the most talented fullback to play at Ohio State during the Earle Bruce era, Broadnax was a three-year starter for the Buckeyes and served as the lead blocker for the likes of Keith Byars and Tim Spencer.

  • Big Ten Co-Champion (1981)
  • Holiday Bowl Champion (1982)
  • Fiesta Bowl Champion (1984)

After earning just spot minutes as a freshman, Broadnax worked his way into the starting lineup in 1981 as the Buckeyes went on to share the Big Ten crown with Iowa with a 9-3, 6-2 record.
