Ohio State’s Cody Simon Shocks Fans with Heartfelt Thanks After First Championship in Ten Years
In an unexpected turn of events, Ohio State linebacker Cody Simon took to social media this week to thank fans and teammates for his first championship win with the team, marking a milestone that has left many Ohio State fans both surprised and elated.
Simon, who has been a key figure in Ohio State’s defense for several seasons, posted an emotional message on Instagram, expressing his gratitude to the fans, coaches, and fellow players who have supported him throughout his journey. “This one is for all of you who have been with me since day one,” Simon wrote, along with a picture of the team celebrating the victory. “It’s been a long road, but we finally did it. It’s not just a win for me, it’s a win for everyone who believed in this team and in me.”
While the victory marked Simon’s first championship win at Ohio State, it was also the Buckeyes’ first title in a decade. The team’s triumph has been a highly anticipated event for fans, who have been eagerly awaiting another national championship since their last win in 2014.

“Cody Simon is the heart of this defense,” one fan tweeted. “I’m so proud of him and this team. It’s been ten long years, but this championship was worth the wait.”
With the Buckeyes now officially champions once again, all eyes are on Simon and his teammates as they look to defend their title in the coming seasons. But for now, fans and players alike are soaking in the joy of a well-earned victory.
