In other sporting news, Maurice Clarett may sue the NFL for early entry. Apparently he thinks that private companies should not be permitted to set their own hiring practices. What's next, high school students suing prospective employers who are requiring a college degree?
Clarett's mother is "distraught" at the way her son is being treated by Ohio State.What better reason than to sue the NFL! Of course, if it weren't for Clarett's apparent boneheadedness, he'd still be playing college ball. This sounds like yet another case of people not taking responsibility for their actions.

I got a note from one of my school mates that Clarett was out doing an ESPN interview last week after the game. There is a rule against unauthorized interviews for all members of the team and that is the reason he is no longer being allowed to train with the team. You would think that with the trouble he was in he would be smart enough to shut up.
Full Disclosure: I am an OSU grad in 19.. well nevermind when, it was a while ago.
Clarett's interview was BEFORE the game with Kirk Herbstreit (ex-OSU QB turned ESPN "talking head") and it was done without prior approval by the OSU staff. He should have been in the locker room with the rest of the team, not shooting his mouth off on TV.
The rumor swirling around now is Geiger is "out to get" Clarett, not only for this, but for the airline ticket bullshit before the Fiesta Bowl. If I'm Geiger I'm thinking, "You called me a liar and now you admitted fucking up on NCAA rules. Your ass is mine, boy."
