Tristan Gebbia transferred to Ohio State because he wanted to go somewhere he would “be challenged to improve” and says he is ready to “help with whatever is needed of me.”
As Tristan Gebbia approached the end of his sixth year as a college football player at Oregon State, he thought he was ready to hang up his cleats. As it turned out, he wasn’t.
Gebbia, who plans to pursue a career in coaching after he’s done playing, chose to become a Buckeye because he wanted to be a part of one of the top offenses in the country and learn from Ryan Day and Corey Dennis. “The way that I see it is personally, it's my responsibility to be the best version of myself every day and to help with whatever is needed of me. So whether that be helping guys out, playing, whatever is being asked of me, I need to do that to the best of my ability,” Gebbia said. “And in order to do that, I have to be able to be the best version of myself every day and just improve every day. That's how I see it.
“And also like, when you're coming off the field, in my experience, it's good to have somebody to talk to that has played. My first start against Oregon in 2019, Jake Luton was there. He got hurt and I started that game.
“If you took any guys from Oregon State and you planted them in this locker room, I think that they would get along really well. Because they're similar character people,” Gebbia said. “I think that's what Smith and Coach Day do a good job of is finding guys that have good character and bringing them into the locker room. And I think that's really important for team chemistry. So yeah, I think that there's a lot of things that are very similar.
