Ohio State tight end transfers to JSU

Former Ohio State tight end Marcel Frost has joined the Jackson State football team, JSU coach Rick Comegy said on Thursday.

Frost, a 6-foot-5, 255-pound junior has two years of eligibility remaining and was listed as the Buckeyes starting tight end going into fall practice.

But he was suspended from the Ohio State football team on Aug. 9 for the entire 2006 season for violating undisclosed team rules. He did keep his scholarship and was eligible to return to the team in 2007.

"Ohio State released him and we picked him up," Comegy said. "Obviously, he gives us a great option at tight end with great hands. He should be eligible for us right away."

Frost played in nine games for Ohio State last season, starting five. He caught seven passes for 70 yards.

Frost was on the JSU practice football field in uniform, but without pads, during Thursday morning's practice.

The addition of Frost is the ninth D-I transfer on Jackson State's roster for this season and the second former Ohio State player. The other is running back Erik Haw.

Sheesh, my Appalachian State Mountaineers enter the season ranked #1 in I-AA (ain't it great? my teams are #1 in both I-A and I-AA). Guess I'm going to have to keep an eye out for Jackson State--they are loading up on some serious talent.

But I wish the best for both Eric Haw and Marcel Frost. I hope the "big fish in a little pond" doesn't let them think they can continue on the path that got them on the "outs" here. You're never happy when a member of the family moves out under these circumstances. You just hope they take some life lessons with them.
