Sad to hear. He just never figured it out.

 

[NFBuck]

Well, damn. So much promise that will ultimately go unfulfilled.

 

[Bucknut24]

wasn't sure of the rules (you'd think i'd know them by now as long as i've been here), so I put it in rumor mill

but really sucks to hear, next man up I guess

Saw a rumor from the comments section that there may be two more dismissals coming...

Darn darn darn darn darn.

But isn't it good to know that Ohio State has a program that polices the players?

Hope this isn't true.

Not an appropriate place to post rumored names...

Bad for Rod, bad for the team. Very sad to hear this. He really seems like a geat kid. Good luck the rest of the way.

Evidently confirmed.

Just test everyone once a week all year around. Monday is probably a good day. That way you have a bigger chance of detecting in the off season, and detect early before it spreads, and they know ...I use now, I will be caught for sure...no maybe about it.

When they dismiss a guy, is he given a bus ticket back home like the old days?

He's a senior. They may just leave his scholarship and allow him to finish school.
