LOOK: Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Wears Blue Tie, Louis Vuitton Shoes In Homage Of Father
Whether it be Louis Vuitton cleats or an Apple Watch in game, Ohio State Buckeyes receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has always dressed to impress.
Harrison arrived to Big Ten Media Days Wednesday sporting a gray suit with a blue tie and matching Louis Vuitton shoes which he said was in homage of his father, Marvin Harrison Sr., as well as just trying "to have some style as well."
Harrison Sr. played the inaugural season in Lucas Oil Stadium, where Big Ten Media Days is being held, but was already cemented as a legendary receiver in Indianapolis Colts and NFL history. He was inducted into the Colts Ring of Honor in 2011 after recording 1,102 receptions, 14,580 yards and 128 touchdowns after his 13-year NFL career with Indianapolis.
Harrison Jr. said he has "a lot" of memories from his father's playing days.
"I definitely remember when he got inducted. His name was revealed here," Marvin Harrison Jr. said. "That's the home sideline, so I remember sitting in the bleachers over there towards the end of the game or maybe after the game, just sitting with him. I have a picture of that in my room."
Though most of Harrison Sr.'s playing career took place inside the RCA Dome, Harrison Jr. has a chance to come back and play in the city where his father made a name for himself, something he said he never thought of being able to do when he was a kid.
"I was just a kid at the time being amazed by how big the stadium is, the bright lights, things like that," Harrison Jr. said. "I never dreamed of getting the opportunity to maybe play in the Big Ten Championship game or being in the stadium doing Big Ten Media Day."
