J.T. Barrett has been thought of to be one of the biggest leaders on this Ohio State football team. His teammates voted for him to be a captain just before the season began. Urban Meyer raves about how he is mature for his age and has a natural leadership ability. It has always been Barrett’s persona that he has strong character. But now Barrett has found himself in two off-the-field situations in as many seasons that do not make him look very good.
Many forget that just last December, Barrett was in the news for a domestic violence situation with his ex-girlfriend.
