This Week in Twitter is a look at some of the week's best and most entertaining tweets from Buckeyeland and beyond.

Birthday wishes were in order for a Buckeye legend on Sunday, as Bears quarterback Justin Fields turned 24 years old.

Two more Ohio State greats were in a celebratory mood the following day, when it was announced that they'd be catching passes from Derek Carr instead of Andy Dalton in 2023.

Spring football is underway in Columbus, and the Buckeyes were excited to return to the practice field.

Ohio State wrestler Sammy Sasso won his second conference title in three years at the Big Ten Championships, and he has even bigger goals in mind. The redshirt senior will begin his pursuit of a national title on Thursday in Tulsa after finishing fifth in the country in 2022.

As you may have heard, several Ohio State players put on dazzling displays at the NFL Combine. In addition to their stellar performances, some of the Buckeye standouts got to spend time around a pair of retired Ohio football heroes.

Wednesday was International Women's Day, a great opportunity to recognize and celebrate all of the women who make the Buckeye community so special.

It was a difficult regular season for the Ohio State men's basketball team, but the Buckeyes have caught fire at the Big Ten tournament. After hanging on to beat Wisconsin in the first round, 13th-seeded Ohio State then upset No. 5 seed Iowa before picking off fourth-seeded Michigan State. The Buckeyes will look to punch their ticket to the title game when they play No. 1 seed Purdue on Saturday afternoon.

Last but not least, Greg Oden opened up about the disappointment of his injury-riddled NBA career, and people made sure to remind him of how special of a person he is and how dominant of a player he was.
