Jake McCluskey

My name is Jake McCluskey. I am from Cincinnati where I went to Moeller for high school and played sports. My favorite sport was football and I played defensive end and won state my senior year. My fun fact is that my father and I have matching tattoos that represent our state championships our senior years.

My favorite buckeye story was when the football team was playing in the sugar bowl and my brothers roomate, Reid Fragel, was the tight end that year and he caught a pass for a huge gain. Reid Fragel is 6'8 310 pounds now and plays for the Cincinnati Bengals but before he reached the bengals he had to put in alot of hard work. It was the end of his junior year and he had made the decsion to move from tight end to offensive tackle, knowing that was the only way he could make it to the NFL.  He went from 275 to 310 in the off-season. His transaction from tight end to tackle was so impressive that Urban Meyer named an award after him for a player that switches opposite positions, starts at the position, and succeeds.
