Bobcats!

Two quick Ohio University notes.

First, it's the tale of OU lineman Michael Eynon winning a portion of the Ohio Lottery.

According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, he'll take home roughly $175,000 after taxes. Not too shabby!

In general, college football players are broke. Well, unless you're Reggie Bush.

I was penniless in college too. If someone handed me $175K? That might as well have been $10 million as far as I'm concerned.

The lucky student-athlete, Michael Eynon, said he'll give some to his church, some to his family, and the rest in the bank. Sounds like a good plan Mike.

Enjoy a little bit of that dough too Michael. This might be the only winning the OU football team does this year. Hopefully I'm wrong.

And also, the venerable OU alum Peter King from Sports Illustrated / NBC Sports was wearing the Ohio University golf shirt during his ESPN 'P.T.I.' appearance today. Nice!

Check out the impressive list of Ohio University alumn's sometime. It's...impressive. Here's a sample:

- Nancy Cartwright, voice of Bart and several other characters on The Simpsons
- Jerry Heller, co-founder of Ruthless Records (record label of N.W.A.)
- Bob Huggins, NCAA basketball coach
- Matt Lauer, co-host of NBC's The Today Show
- Jay Mariotti, sports columnist and TV personality
- Paul Newman, actor
- Ed O'Neill, Al Bundy on Married With Children among other shows and movies
- Mike Schmidt, Hall of Fame third baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies
- George Voinovich, U.S. Senator, former Ohio governor
- Dave Zastudil, NFL player, punter for the Cleveland Browns
- Dr. Tammy Zirke, Au. D.

Wow, that's some talent.
