It's all JT's fault. They'll just get their jollies piling on him instead and dragging OSU through the mud some more.

Maybe it will go something like....
If JT had not put him in the doghouse, he would have had a better college career, with more experience, and made the NFL.
Urb did nothing as far as reaching out to him. Urb only cared about winning and getting paid, not reaching out to past players, or their feelings.
That is what happened in Florida when all those players were arrested.
Urb did nothing to help either Trayvon or George Zimmerman either. or the election scandal in Florida, or the crash of Florida real estate, and did nothing to stop the big Florida banks.

What a sad story.
Dude gets a full scholly to TOSU. Has all the talent in the world to at least be a wonderfully productive CFB player while earning his degree from one of the finest Universities in the country. Shit changes when the only color green that "dude" sees is money, and not the grass between him and the endzone.
Ray is an example of how pitiful the world of college athletics has become. Kids that have done NOTHING but be great high school players schedule press conferences to announce whose free education they're going to accept. Then go out and do nothing except fuck it up for for the entire time they're in school, while all the time their posse around them is telling him how great they are and, oh, by the way, don't forget about "me" when you strike it rich!
There has to be a better way, and I'm sure there is, but we'll never see it. This kid produced magical moments on the field while here. Let's NEVER forget that. He's in a real bad spot right now, so was MoC, and look how he's grown as a person. When Ray gets sentenced and imprisoned I hope that MoC goes and pays him a visit. He's still only 26 years old, and still has his entire life in front of him. No bad wishes here, even though he's kinda earned them. Ray is a player that we once cheered to help our team win games, and he did. In Buckeye land, the saying is simple, "Once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye." Lets all please hope that Ray gets it together and goes on to lead a productive life!
Peace

Re: (In 2008) Tressel confirmed that Small will not play when No. 12 Ohio State plays at Northwestern on Saturday. Team spokeswoman Shelly Poe said the suspension was due to a "repeated violation of team rules."
Small has been benched for Ohio State's games against Northwestern and Illinois for supposedly missing a class.
But Small's father, Ken Small, said he is mystified why his son is being suspended.
"They're intentionally trying to blow his career," Ken Small told The Associated Press by telephone from his home in suburban Columbus.
It has been no secret that Ray Small has continually been in and out of Tressel's doghouse for the past two seasons. His father said that the latest suspension stemmed from missing or being late for some classes and meetings. He also said part of his problems was parking tickets.
Ken Small cited several other recent legal transgressions by Ohio State players and compared them to the minor problems his son has had. One player a year ago was arrested for propositioning a female police officer posing as a prostitute. At least two players have been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Ken Small said it was clear his son is being treated unfairly by Tressel.
"He had a couple of incidents, but he never got caught smoking marijuana before the national championship game. Or he never got a DUI, or picked up a prostitute. He was just late," Ken Small said. "And the punishment is you can't even go into the [practice] facility? They act like he's dangerous. These other kids ... didn't get banned from the facility. All they got was being sat down for the first few plays of a game."

I wonder who Ken Small is blaming for the "drug charges".
Just sayin': I wonder if things would have worked out differently (i.e. better) for Ray had he received some better parental advice/support back in 2008.
