Unsung Hero
The unsung hero of this playoff campaign was draftee free agent Lucius Kaine of the Tijuana Luchadores who despite his fantastic ball handling skill and great speed failed to find time on the field for the Luchas this season. Kaine has already been dubbed one of the top prospects in the upcoming draft, boasting one of the best athletic builds and having an absolute monstrous drive to be successful. After being told by management that he would not be playing for the remainder of the S11 DSFL year, Kaine returned to his team in Ohio State to help the Buckeyes to another national championship over the Duke Blue Devils. Kaine was a massive player during the final game for his team, putting up some highly competitive stats with eight receptions for one hundred and eighty three receiving yards and two touchdowns. His impact on the field was able to help the Buckeyes take the game and in reward for his time at Ohio State Kaine has already been in the discussion for the team's ring of honor. The season ended for Kaine with him passing on his role as the offensive captain of the Buckeyes roster to another great young receiver who looks to follow in his footsteps and someday declare for the draft, Marius Bauer.
Going to Disneyland
While many years the offer of Disneyland is given to the league's most valuable player, this season the recipient was none other than young wide receiving talent Lucius Kaine. While the receiver didn't have any part in his teams run, he was named the Heisman trophy winner for the second time in his career, becoming one of very few people to accomplish this fight. In recognition and to celebrate his career with Ohio State, the coaches and players pool together money in order to send the young star for the trip of his life. Accompanied by his wife Kiera and their two year old son Augustin, the family celebrated a great last season of college football in the best way, surrounded by the magic of disneyland. Unquestionably the most happy person among the bunch was young Augustin, who was snapped many times grinning from ear to ear and laughing with the many characters of disneyland. Kaine has this to say in the interview.
"I can't thank this team enough for making my tear here so memorable. There has been so much that you have done for me and my family throughout my whole time in this school and it's going to be a real pain letting go of all of it and moving onto my career in the professional ranks. It's been a wonderful four years, but it's time to go."
That Magic Moment
One of the most magical moments of this entire season in football was in the college football national championship game between Duke and Ohio State where receiver Lucius Kaine made an absolutely jaw dropping catch with only fifteen second left before time ran out to win the game for his Buckeyes. With the game tied up 17-17 heading into the last minute, Kaine took it under his own charge to make sure the game didn't head to overtime where the Buckeyes defense would be unlikely to hold up. On the final drive, Kaine called for a short pass play with solid blocking to give him room to charge down the field and make his case, and he got just that. As the ball hit his hands, it was like time slowed down. With help from his fellow receivers and running back, Kaine moved past the linebacker group and safeties and charged into open field before one of the opposing corner backs got a hand on him. As the opposing player made contact, Kaine lost control of the ball for a slight second before doing a half flip over the shoulder of his enemy and catching the ball again at the fifteen yard line. Remaining on his feet, Kaine proceeded to take the ball and run it in for what is likely the most memorable touchdown in all of college football history. The Buckeyes reigned supreme.
