This Week in Twitter is our weekly look at some of the week's best and most entertaining tweets from current and former Ohio State players and other Ohio State accounts.
The NFL Draft is always full of fascinating storylines, reactions and drama, but without doubt one of the most underrated was when the Internet was briefly convinced that Urban Meyer selected a 29-year-old relief pitcher named "Luke Farrell" in the NFL Draft.
Perfection. https://t.co/BArQMEXbTu pic.twitter.com/FlExM2k1Ij

Another great draft moment was Jonathon Cooper getting selected and celebrating the only way he knew how – with the neighborhood kids.

Meanwhile, Justin Hilliard didn't get selected in the NFL Draft, but he wants to makes sure everyone knows he's used to being an underdog. This is nothing new to him.

All these departures, but it's worth remembering that the Buckeyes had a few key returnees, too, including Haskell Garrett.

The offseason means players have a bit more free time these days, and naturally, that means more time for some video games.
It seems like Tyreke Johnson has taken his talents to the 2K courts, and he's looking for someone to roll with.
