COLUMBUS — One of the unusual days of every Ohio State football season has come and gone.

The Buckeyes checked into their team hotel for their annual two-week stint away from all the distractions campus, college and conversation about their expectations. It’s a day that brings the team and the media together with a faux red carpet feel that is hard to describe without sounding slightly fanatical.

For Ohio State players, it’s a rite of passage. For the non-football team guests at the hotel, it’s a day that brings a lot of questions about ‘Why are all these folks out here with cameras?’

Players arrived over a two-hour span. They brought with them good spirits, questionable outfit choices and in the case of Dawand Jones, a pet turtle. The reptile’s name was Terry.

Either way, it’s a good time and a good chance to get a glimpse at the future of the Buckeyes football program. Check out the photos from Sunday afternoon below.
