COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Sixteen years have passed since former Ohio State football quarterback Troy Smith helped lead the Buckeyes to victory against Notre Dame.
After taking on Dublin native and Irish quarterback Brady Quinn in the 2006 Fiesta Bowl, Smith helped the Buckeyes win by 34-20, leading him to earn the Heisman Trophy a year later. But since that moment, it’s been up and down for Smith — and it’s taken a toll on his mental health.
“The journey that I’ve embarked on is seriously getting rid of a lot of the different things that I was taught growing up because now they don’t work in this form of life,” Smith said.
