Clarett back at tOSU

Damn, 3 years flies by.

Clarett says in a statement that it is a "surreal feeling to be back at Ohio State" and that he doesn't want to be a "distraction or nuisance" to the football team or other students.


I hope he does well. He should be fine, as long as he doesn't accidentally rob some people with a knife or something.
And a good day to you, sir.

Yeah good luck to him. Could turn out to be a pretty good story.

What didn't get reported in the article above is that Jim Tressel has been working... behind the scenes and with no media attention, for several months, to grease the skids for Clarett's return to OSU. (see link below)

The man Clarett betrayed more than any other has never turned his back on him, after all the grief and embarrassment and negative attention Clarett caused for JT and OSU.

It's remarkable.

If you didn't believe JT was a good man yesterday, you should today.
