Evans Scholar Gets Bodyslammed By Torleif Sorenson on 10/1/14
Chances are that if you weren't completely immersed in the Ryder Cup (like your humble correspondent was), you might have seen the photo and/or video clip of a Ohio State University fan running onto the field at Ohio Stadium on Saturday — and getting a logical and well-deserved reception (above) from Buckeyes football strength and conditioning coach Anthony Schlegel, a 6-foot 1-inch, 251-lb. former NFL linebacker and an alumnus of the school.

I appreciate him protecting our players. I would rather him not have a lawsuit if something bad would happen, you drill a guy like that. So we had a partial serious conversation.

It was a good hit, a good form tackle."As with anything gone viral on the World Wide Web, Coach Schlegel's take-down has been met with approving parody:
