Ohio State's Cardale Jones Makes a Make-A-Wish Kid's Day

Cardale Jones says when he goes out in public, he never turns down a chance to interact with Ohio State fans. Yesterday, he went out of his way to make the day of Alex, a Make-a-Wish Foundation kid at a youth baseball tournament:

At this point, it's more mind-bending to think of him as a third-stringer known for bad tweeting than a championship class act:

What an honor to team up with @MakeAWish to make one lucky buckeye fan dream come true

Making a difference within the youth of underprivileged inner city communities is not only a humbling experience, but an honor.
