Dominick Clarke Suspended

Backup cornerback Dominic Clarke won’t accompany Ohio State when it plays at Illinois after being charged with disorderly conduct for allegedly shooting a BB gun from the overhang of a dormitory restaurant on Sunday night.

“It’s in the university’s hands,” coach Luke Fickell said. “There’s not a whole lot we can talk about with it. It’s our decision — my decision — that we won’t have him on the trip with us.”
