CHICAGO: Ohio State has suspended All-America defensive end Joey Bosa, receiver Corey Smith and H-backs Jalin Marshall and Dontre Wilson for its opening game at Virginia Tech.
“Violation of team policies,” Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said Thursday at Big Ten media days. “That’s as far as I’ll go.”
Meyer did say the violations had nothing to do with players breaking any laws.
Meyer said he has known for a while that the suspensions were coming and that he is “100 percent supportive” of the policies.
The defending national champions open the season Labor Day night in Blacksburg, Virginia, against the only team to beat them last season.
