Here's the official OSU release:

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer today suspended senior running back Carlos Hyde, from Naples, Fla., from all football team activities pending the bribing of the witnesses outcome of the student code of conduct and criminal investigations. Hyde was named in a City of Columbus Police Department report that was issued Monday because Coach Meyer has yet to find Columbus's version of Huntley Johnson.

Meyer also took disciplinary action Monday against two freshmen who were involved in legal issues in the past week: tight end Marcus Baugh, from Riverside, Calif., and defensive lineman Tim Gardner, from Indianapolis. He also announced that senior cornerback Bradley Roby, from Suwanee, Ga., will not attend Big Ten media days this week (Ouch!  That's gonna sting.). Roby was involved in a legal issue this weekend in Bloomington, Ind., and, as more information becomes available, could face additional discipline- OK, I couldn't even type that with a straight face.

"I have a clear set of core values in place that players not in the two-deep members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor," Meyer said. "There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions, but only if convicted of a felony.  And maybe not even then."

Baugh has been removed from all team activities and will sit out the first game of the season, Aug. 31 vs. Buffalo (oh noes!  How will we get by without him?), for his arrest last weekend for underage possession of alcohol and possessing a fake identification. His actions will also result in the loss of his summer aid.

Gardner is being sent home and will not be a part of the 2013 team but is definitely a possibility for 2014, unless we can recruit over him after he was charged Saturday night by Columbus police with obstruction of official business.
 

 

"Swift, effective and fair discipline is the standard for our entire athletics program other than that whole tattoo thing.  Oh, and Maurice Clarett.," Director of Athletics Gene Smith said. "I applaud Coach Meyer for his immediate actions, and am looking forward to having these players reinstated in time for the first game."

Oh gosh, does this mean they'll probably have to sit out the first half of their opening game? :eek:
