The Ohio State Buckeyes have suspended senior running back Carlos Hyde, projected by some to be among the top tailbacks in the nation this season, coach Urban Meyer announced Monday. Hyde, a bulldozing rusher who led the Buckeyes with 17 total touchdowns last season, is a person of interest in the investigation of an assault against a woman at a downtown Columbus bar, the Columbus Dispatch said. Hyde has not been arrested or charged with a crime but was identified in a police report filed Saturday in Columbus. Meyer said that Hyde is banned from all football activities as the school awaits the outcome from both a criminal investigation and a code of conduct investigation. The Dispatch, citing sources, reported earlier Monday that Hyde has been kicked off the team. A source told ESPN's Brett McMurphy that there is surveillance video of the incident that's contrary to what is being reported.
