Ohio State Football Parents Encouraging Sons to Focus on What They Can Control As Uncertainty Continues to Surround Season

Paris Johnson Jr.’s first season at Ohio State surely hasn’t gone the way he envisioned it would so far, but his mother is proud of how he’s handled the unfortunate circumstances.

While it remains uncertain when the Buckeyes and the rest of the Big Ten will be back on the field playing football games, Johnson’s goals haven’t changed: He wants to earn a starting job as a freshman, all while also excelling in the classroom, and begin building his legacy at Ohio State as he works toward his ultimate goals of becoming an All-American and getting a tree in Buckeye Grove.
