Summary

We are honored to be joined by the mothers of three of Ohio State's standout players on today's show: Kimberly Stroud (C.J. Stroud's mom), Monica Daniels (Paris Johnson Jr.'s mom) and Millie Williams (Miyan Williams' mom). A lot of ground is covered during the near 35-minute conversation, including C.J. Stroud becoming a national star, everything Paris Johnson Jr. is doing with his foundation and on the field, the health status of Miyan Williams and the excellent season he's having, and much more.

All of that and more is coming your way on a special edition of the Wednesday 5ish.
