Ohio State football: Buckeyes arrive for Orange Bowl minus Noah Spence

Urban Meyer confirmed that Spence, a sophomore defensive end and the team leader in sacks this season, “did not fly down with us. He is working on some personal issues at home.”

Just read this and came here looking for the scoop. Hope noah makes it down.

Yeah, just saw this too. Hope it's not anything serious and he can get it sorted out.

Clay Hall reported he asked Urban today and was given no other comment than a thumbs down. Not looking good.

Next man up.....

Unfortunate for Noah. But Jamaal Marcus and Steve Miller are up to the task. Marcus is always causing havoc in the backfield. I think he is going to impress this Friday night in the Orange Bowl.

On my phone but suspended for 3 games for violating big 10 rules....what?

 

[LostLassie]

Well, that doesn't sound like "personal reasons" to me.

I knew he wasn't going to play on Friday but not playing against Virginia Tech next year suuuux

 

[Tlangs]

Awesome.

 

[UpNorth_Buckeye]

What's odd is that it was big 10 rules, not osu or ncaa. And Osu helped appeal.

 

[Tlangs]

I'm sure it's something ridiculous.

 

[Coqui]

I can only assume it had to deal with not travelling with the team then. Since it was Big Ten and not OSU or NCAA.

 

[maximumblitz]

I am trying hard to imagine this. A rule that neither the NCAA nor tOSU decided it needed? My mind has been blown. Wow.

 

[LostLassie]

Glad there's the BOB situation to balance things out, 'cause this first day of the New Year has its share of bad news going around.

We have the entire offseason, so I'm sure it will leak as to what Big Ten rule was broken or stretched.

I wouldn't be shocked if a family member anonymously leaked it to a press member, if they don't agree with the decision (I would probably do that).
