Jones: Clarett's credibility is questionable
Continued from page 5
Magazine that people should check
out Clarett’s background before and
understand what kind of person he is.
Clarett said when he said he
denied these allegations in the past,
he was protecting his coach and his
teammates from suspensions.
This is coming from a guy who
said he had $10,000 worth of clothing,
CDs, cash and stereo equipment stolen
from his 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
when in fact the car was borrowed,
the equipment was the dealer’s and
Clarett had overestimated the cost
of the equipment. The charge against
him had a maximum penalty of $1,000
and six months in jail for lying on a
police report.
He pleaded guilty to a lesser
charge — failure to aid a law
enforcement officer — and paid the
maximum fine of $100 on the
charge, received no jail time and it
doesn’t appear on his record.
He blew off a meeting with NFL Hall
of Fame running back Marcus Allen
his high school football coach set up
for him.
Clarett’s past is foggy and for him to
say he wants to “clear his name” with
the NFL owners and general managers
is nothing more than self preservation.
This is a selfish act because this
is a guy who hasn’t played in a
football game in almost two years.
Many people are saying Clarett
could drop to the fourth or fifth
round depending on how well he
works out for NFL teams.
He even admits that “NFL GMs
know college players take money,” but
to me this sounds like a kid trying to
exact revenge on a university that gave
him an opportunity to shine.
Ohio State could’ve been a great
place for Clarett if he had dedicated
himself to school and athletics.
Granted, if he was offered these
chances to get easy money and easy
grades, it would be hard for any 18-to
20-year-old to pass it up.
The Buckeyes are being dragged
through the mud on top of their
sub-par season, but it’s their own fault.
There had to be an inkling
somewhere that Clarett had prob
lems before he came to the Buck
eyes. If so, they were ignored.
If Ohio State did participate in these
illegal activities, it should be severely
punished for its actions.
No college should jeopardize any
student’s future.
The Ohio State should know better.

Volleyball: Ducks sign off on home games
Continued from page 5
career-high 26 kills against Washing
ton State and she has recorded
double digits in kills in 12 straight
matches. Morrison is second in the
league in points per game (5.03) and
kills per game (4.39).
Sophomore setter Courtney
Thompson was accredited with
73 of the 79 assists Washington
recorded against its intrastate rival.
Thompson’s top performance came
against Oregon State on Oct. 28 when
she tallied 78 assists, the best of any
setter in the league this season.
Saying goodbye
to the home floor
Arizona State and Oregon will play
their last home matches this week.
The Sun Devils host the Washington
schools in Tempe, Ariz., and the Ducks
will have the Bay Area teams in town.
Arizona State ended a five-game losing
streak by sweeping Oregon last week.
OSU sets team,

Allison Lawrence reached the 20/20
mark for the first time in her career
against Arizona State with 22 kills and
21 digs. The senior outside hitter has
recorded 13 double-doubles this
season. She is No. 6 in the Pac-10 with
3.89 kills per game.
Freshman libero Nina Baltimore
posted a career-best 28 digs against the
Sun Devils. As a team, the Beavers
collected a season-high 92 digs.
Oregon State (10-12, 4-9) saw its
miniature winning streak of two
matches end in a defeat to then-No. 22
Arizona on Friday.
