Ohio State QB C.J. Stroud had to “scratch and claw through life,” growing up with tough experiences in Los Angeles, and he's eternally grateful for the lessons it taught him.
“I can’t explain it. But I get chills whenever I’m competing. I get a grit to me,” Stroud says. “I’m angry – I’m not angry, but it’s like, I’m at your neck. I don’t care who looking or who watching. I’m not (gonna) be disrespectful to nobody. I’m gonna be a good teammate, but I’m a competitor. When you go through those things, it makes you scratch and claw.”
This dude is sick man, I’m rooting for him.
