One Ohio State football player who has announced his apparent retirement was more than happy to sound off on coaches and fans during the Rose Bowl.
One of the best things about Twitter is that it can be a medium that provides individuals instant access to share their thoughts. That’s true for fans, athletes and coaches alike.
One Ohio State football player who has apparently decided to announce his retirement and decision to become a fan is using the platform to share his thoughts on the Buckeyes’ performance in the Rose Bowl.
And, uh, he’s got some pretty strong thoughts.
Marcus Williamson was one of the several players who wasn’t available for Ohio State’s game against the Utah Utes. Now we know the reason he’s not playing. On Twitter, Williamson made it clear that he’s actually an Ohio State fan and Ohio State fans don’t get to play in the game.
Ohio State football: Marcus Williamson takes to Twitter to share frustrations
Williamson made sure to make it clear that he has officially retired and didn’t make the trip to the Rose Bowl so that he could instead enjoy the opportunity to watch football.

He’s a fan. He wants you to know that he’s not an Ohio State football player any longer and he’s joining in on the conversation that fans have on Twitter.

Like every good fan, Williamson took the opportunity to express his sympathies for a couple of players who ended up getting hurt in the Rose Bowl.

Williamson also took the opportunity to take a shot at some fans and coaches, warning recruits about the way some coaches apparently act.

RECRUITS: watch out for a lotta these coaches. this can be a shitty business w shitty individuals. Use wisdom and discernment when visiting schools

That doesn’t sound great!
This is odd and bizarre and unusual. It’s definitely not the norm in this sport, or really any sport. It remains to be seen what Williamson’s next steps as a now retired athlete will be. He’s got a lot of valuable insight about college football.
Maybe he’ll continue to share it.
