…Chase Winovich doesn’t forget things easily. He still remembers the Ohio State fan who “shot the double bird” at him last year. He still remembers his omission from the Under Armour All-America Game. He still remembers the scout team, the position change and every other slight, in part, because all of that has made him who he is. Perhaps it’s those recollections that draw his teammates to say the redshirt junior has a few...…
