Misreported? That's unpossible!
On a serious note, get well soon, Jaamal - we need you!

Berry back
Running back Jaamal Berry dressed but did not play against Michigan State, days after an altercation that required a hospital visit.
Berry is expected to see action on Saturday, Fickell said.
?Jaamal didn?t play last week because we wanted to make sure he was all right with everything,? Fickell said. ?We wanted to make sure everything was OK in his corner.?
Running backs coach Dick Tressel said Berry looks to be 100 percent.
Berry might be the quickest of Ohio State?s runners. He has 7 yards on three carries and is averaging 21.4 yards on seven kickoff returns.
?He?s really done well the last couple days,? Tressel said. ?I think we need to make sure we understand and utilize all of our talent.?
Ohio State football player Jaamal Berry has been named a suspect in an alleged assault that occurred Friday morning, according to a report from the Columbus Police Department. It is the second incident involving Berry allegedly assaulting another individual in less than a month.
The latest incident occurred at 2:20 a.m. Friday on Vine Street, behind North Market, and involved a 21-year-old non-OSU student. The victim was "struck in the face with a closed fist," according to the Columbus police report.
Berry, a redshirt sophomore running back, was with another African-American male and was allegedly yelling at the victim and his friend, after the victim was struck by a car. The victim, who The Lantern has chosen not to name at this time, said that Berry and his friend were yelling vulgar remarks at him. After asking why they were yelling, the victim said that Berry crossed the street and punched his friend, and then punched him in the face with a closed fist.
Berry was later identified by a witness, and the alleged victim said he confirmed Berry's identity when shown a picture by police.
The victim's mother, who requested anonymity, said she spoke with Gene Smith, OSU athletic director, about the incident on Friday afternoon.
Smith said that the athletic department is aware that Berry might have been involved in an altercation.
"We have not been informed by anyone else that charges have been filed," Smith told The Lantern Monday. "If Jaamal is charged, he will be suspended pending the outcome of the case."
Berry and other witnesses involved did not immediately respond to The Lantern's requests for comment.
On Sept. 28, Berry was involved in what an OSU police report described as an "assault" on another student. Berry was admitted and released from the OSU Medical Center and no charges were filed.
