Alright, so today I’m gonna walk you through how I dug up the Ohio State Buckeyes 2015 roster. It wasn’t as straightforward as I thought, but hey, that’s usually how it goes, right?
First off, I started with the obvious – a simple Google search. I typed in “ohio state buckeyes 2015 roster.” Seemed easy enough, but the initial results were a mixed bag. Lots of articles about their season, game highlights, and stuff, but not a clean, easy-to-read roster. Annoying, I know.
Next, I figured I’d check out the official Ohio State Athletics website. You’d think they’d have it, right? Navigated over there, poked around the football section, and went digging through their archives. It took a bit of clicking, but I eventually found a section for past seasons. Found the 2015 season, but the roster link was kinda buried. Finally got to it, and bam! A full list of players, their positions, and all that good stuff.
But here’s the thing – the format was kinda clunky. It was a webpage, not something I could easily copy and paste or work with. I wanted something cleaner. So, back to the search engine I went.
This time, I tried adding “PDF” to my search query: “ohio state buckeyes 2015 roster PDF.” Bingo! Found a couple of links that looked promising. One was a media guide from that year – those things usually have rosters in them. Downloaded the PDF, and there it was, a nicely formatted roster. Sweet!
But, just to be thorough, I also checked out some college football stats sites like ESPN and Sports Reference. They often have historical rosters, too. Went to their college football sections, searched for Ohio State, then 2015, and yup, there was the roster again. These sites were actually pretty handy because they also had stats and player profiles linked right there. Pretty cool.
So, in the end, I ended up using a combo of the official website, a PDF media guide, and some sports stats sites to piece together the complete roster info. It wasn’t just one single click, but that’s how research usually goes, doesn’t it? Hope this helps if you’re ever trying to find a specific year’s roster. Good luck!
