We’re honored to announce this year’s Special Guest Speaker: Cardale Jones, the legendary quarterback who led the Ohio State Buckeyes to a National Championship in 2014!
Cardale famously stepped up as a third-string QB and delivered unforgettable wins over Wisconsin, Alabama, and Oregon, cementing his place in Buckeye history. After his college success, he played in the NFL, XFL, CFL, and IFL, and now serves as a CBS Sports analyst and co-host of The Script.
Beyond the field, Cardale is a passionate mentor, philanthropist, and co-founder of The Foundation, supporting NIL efforts for OSU athletes. His charity work also funds adolescent and young adult cancer research at the OSUCCC – James.
Don’t miss the chance to hear his powerful story and insights during this year’s dinner!
