Former OSU kicker Cary Blanchard died this week at the age of 47. That makes me feel really old and really sad. Blanchard is No. 3 all time in school history in scoring. Here are the top five.
- Dan Bailey: 370 points
- Barry Sanders: 360 points
- Cary Blanchard: 331 points
- Ben Grogan: 316 points
- Thurman Thomas: 302 points
According to KFOR, there are unconfirmed reports his death was caused by a heart attack. He played for nine seasons in the NFL. You can watch a cool video on Cary and his wife Mindi from when they were in college from the 36-40 minute mark below.
