It has not been a good news cycle — past, present or future — at defensive tackle for Ohio State the past couple of weeks.
Coach Urban Meyer said Thursday that senior Tommy Schutt is dealing with a foot injury that has made his status uncertain for the Fiesta Bowl on Jan.1 against Notre Dame. That is after senior Adolphus Washington was suspended from the game last week after being charged with solicitation.
As for the future, the Buckeyes had been considered a favorite to land a commitment from top prospect Antwuan Jackson of Ellenwood, Ga. But he announced that he will sign with Auburn, where he plans to enroll in January.
