Urban Meyer, who oversigned his 2015 recruiting class (has to trim 2 or 3 recruits to get to 85 limit), OSU MD's now say they will not clear early enrollee Jamel Dean from Cocoa, who started class at Ohio State in Jan.
Dean tore his ACL in 2013 and now Ohio State MD's say he is not fit to play and kicked him out of the football program (OSU offered a medical scholarship for him to stay at OSU but not play football but believe Dean has rejected that idea).
Did Meyer kick Dean out because he was recovering too slowly so that he could get closer to the 85 max scholarship limit?
