That's one guy that I wouldn't have suspected to have any problems off the field. Hopefully he can get everything in order for next season.
Technically he's like our 4th WR now. But I agree, if OSU was a spread 5 Wide team would be a big blow, but I don't see this as a big deal on the field. Hopefully it's just a grade issue, as those are easily corrected and not a more serious issue.
It hurts a bit. Mostly because he's a good blocker. I hope he gets his act together. I wouldn't want to be in the room while padre is going off.
This would really stink for Duron, but hopefully would teach him a lesson about the effort it takes to be a student at Ohio State
Would have never guessed that Carter would have been the guy with poor grades
It happens from time to time with the strenuous academics at Ohio State. Hopefully, he can get his act together and become an A+ student from here on out. If not, there are plenty of SEC or Big East schools that need a student athlete of that caliber.
