Could return to Ohio State be more lucrative for JT Barrett than entering NFL draft? and other top stories.

  • Could return to Ohio State be more lucrative for JT Barrett than entering NFL draft?

    GLENDALE, Ariz. — Ohio State redshirt junior quarterback J.T. Barrett entered the College Football Playoff with a clear thought process about his future.
