It's been a great year for Buckeye Twitter. We've seen new faces emerge, old ones deliver up to their potential and living legends continue to dominate.

Over the course of a year, it's unlikely you were able to keep up with all the gems Tweeted from Buckeyes past and present, and even if you were, you'd probably still appreciate a recap of the best of the best.

In either case, we've got you covered. We've combed through 12 months of Buckeye Twitter activity to bring you the very best Tweets from 2017. So sit back and enjoy.

To the Tweets!

I have two #takes to this:

1) Cereal is trash and a waste of valuable space in your stomach.

2) Holy hell this is ingenious, carry on.

As someone who skipped an entire semester of macroeconomics to watch Bones, I understand Pat's affinity for daytime television.

Yes, there were pictures. Sing praises.

So earlier this year a picture of a gigantic, adorable wombat named Patrick surfaced on the Internet. I wanted to go to Australia immediately to touch him. I soon learned that a certain Australian punter lived very close to Patrick, but also that Patrick was dead. Life is cruel.

To lighten the mood, our next two tweets will be toilet-themed:

Over 200,000 and we still don't have the blue check mark. At this point, being unverified is more impressive than being verified.

"I wumbo, you wumbo. He, she, we wumbo. Wumbo, wumboing. Wumbology, the study of wumbo..."

I don't know about WWE, but The Jerry Springer Show would be STOKED to have someone of Josh Myers' people-moving prowess employed as security.

Ya boy has the opposite problem: I forget to eat during classes and miss my meal quota for the day. My New Year's resolution is to no longer be able to shop at Baby Gap.

I don't think we've ever actually appreciated how great it is that Cardale Jones showed up to the game in a J.T. Barrett jersey. Most former players show up either in their own jersey or something like designer clothes. Nah, Dolo's rocking the threads of the star quarterback, just like everyone else.

I was impressed and intrigued until I found out this was done in a pool.

Lattimore Goes Pro, But First...

Marshon Lattimore had the best lead up his draft declaration of all time. Rather than simply keep quiet, or congratulate his teammates as they declared, he hit us all with these following Malik Hooker, Gareon Conley and Raekwon McMillan's declarations.

I must say, my thoughts during this time were "man, how did I not know he was this funny until he was leaving?"

When he eventually declared – as we all knew he would – Johnnie Dixon hit him with his own joke.

Just a few months later, he would emerge as one of the NFL's top cornerbacks in just his first year in the league, and second year starting since high school.

They grow up so fast.
