CALVIN'S goal in helping to create this team has changed the outlook of how many see the OHIO SWARM. Many have underestimated the seriousness and the determination of the men on this team. This is all about to change. We are the Improved Swarm and are here to make a statement to our Mcfl Counterparts that we are here to play football, and to represent Columbus and our sponsors with the care and willingness that the Central Ohio area has been lacking for so long. This Team has created an opportunity for men to pursue and achieve the desire that will burn inside them forever, and that is to be a CHAMPION. We can do so through one thing, and that is Football. Great things can happen, but no one will give it to us and we can not take it. We have to earn it.....
