Anybody know what Maurice Clarett has done in the last 20 minutes?

[siberian khatru]

I haven't seen a press conference or round-table discussion on him for awhile, and I was getting worried.

Are teams still looking for the Next Maurice Clarett? Have they talked about who might be the Maurice Clarett of the 2006 draft? When's the Maurice Clarett bobblehead going to be released? How about one of those "he's a rebel who defies authority" Nike commercials?

I heard he fell off Jake Plummer's couch and tripped over Brian Griese's dog.

Maurice Clarett will work out for the UFL's Nighthawks on August 29

Former Ohio State University (and Ohio State Penitentiary) running back Maurice Clarett apparently has gotten clearance to leave the Commonwealth of Ohio. (We know it's not a Commonwealth, but we're going to keep calling it one because of the uncanny way in which it pisses so many of you off when we call Ohio a Commonwealth.) Clarett will be working out for the UFL's Omaha Nighthawks on August 29.

Clarett, the last pick in the third round of the 2005 draft (Broncos), has not yet been offered a contract. His workout will go a long way toward deciding whether he gets a shot.

It remains to be seen whether the bar will be higher for Clarett than it would be for a garden-variety player. Or, possibly, lower. If Clarett's notoriety can deliver interest in the UFL, the Nighthawks may decide that they'd rather have the former Buckeye than, say, Shaud Williams.

Then again, it's not as if one running back will have to go if Clarett receives an invitation to join the team. The Nighthawks currently have only two running backs on the roster -- Williams and Ahman Green

I'd like to see a couple of those doctored forty yard dash pics. Where are those?

So no one has the photoshopped pic of the tortoise beating Clarett at the combine in 2005? Anyone? Dude who has it is probably too busy starting a poop thread.

The same thread could be made today about Tim Tebow.

I've seen him in the 614, he's actually in good shape this time around. I guess prison will do that to you.
