Using Clarett as an example of anything but his own stupidity is a fruitless endeavor.
Would an extra year in Ohio State have made him a better player? Maybe. Would it have made him a better human being? Well, he admits to taking payments and receiving passing grades he didn't deserve. His first actions upon leaving Ohio State were to burn every bridge he had crossed, and then some. He has embarassed himself in workouts and training camps. He is now an alleged felon. Ohio State is a fine school, but I don't think they were going to fix Clarett.
