On Jan. 18, Ohio State announced that following a season-long suspension that began prior to the team’s third game of the 2018 season against TCU, running back Brian Snead would not be returning to the school. Snead enrolled at Iowa Western Community College, with plans to continue playing Division I college football at a different school in 2020. At the time, the university did not provide a reason for Snead’s dismissal. However, according to a report by The Lantern’s Edward Sutelan, the former four-star recruit was found to be listed as the suspect in a police report detailing the rape of a student in September.
