This is the football career of Nolan Roth. His goal is to reach the legendary ranks of the NFL. As a senior in high school his Berea Braves finished the season undefeated and ranked 4th overall in the state. His journey starts: The first round of the Ohio state playoffs against Franklin.
Roth's very first carry of 23 yards really summed up this first round game. The Braves were just at another level crushing Franklin 49 - 3.
Berea 7 14 14 14 - 49

Franklin 0 3 0 0 - 3

OHIO STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
Berea
Vs
Reynoldsburg
Both teams looked like they had the jitters as it went into the half with a 3-3 tie. The Braves opened up the 2nd half with a 8 yd TD pass. After a 3rd quarter FG we look at a 13-3 lead going into the last quarter of Roth’s high school career. Reynoldsburg scored on a long TD pass to cut the lead to 3 with 2:30 left in the game. A decent drive by the Braves ended with a long FG attempt and the kicker connected on a 44 yd FG to go up 6 with 52 seconds left!! Reynoldsburg drives down to our 23 on a couple long passes and a defensive penalty with 29 seconds left. Three straight incompletion leaves Reynoldsburg with a 4th and 10 - they did complete a pass to their TE but he comes up a yard short!!

Roth ends his High School career as a school legend. He has received offers from all the big school. His eyes are set on being the next legendary Buckeye RB as his idol has been Eddie George. But he is looking at options:
He does get offers to start from 11 schools:
BYU
Navy
North Carolina
Nevada
North Illinois
UAB
Army
Louisville Tech
Utah St.
Temple
Of the top 25 teams we decided to cut the list down to 4:
# 5 Texas (3rd string)
#6 West Virginia (3rd string)
#12 Ohio State (4th string)
#2 TCU (2nd string)
We decided to stick with our heart and sign a letter of content and go to The Ohio State Buckeyes.
We start camp as the 4th string RB (61 points behind the 3rd string) behind:
Jr. #28 Chris Wells **Impact Player**
Jr. #34 Mo Wells
So. #33 Joe Gantz
Nolan Roth opens Buckeye camp with a 79 overall rating.
