He is well known for unsuccessfully challenging the NFL's draft eligibility rules requiring a player to be three years removed from high school and for his tumultuous life outside of football, including his dismissal from Ohio State, several arrests, and imprisonment. He sentenced to 7 1/2 years after pleading guilty to aggravated robbery and carrying a concealed weapon
