Former Ohio State defensive back Marcus Williamson says he has retired, which is a good thing considering what he said on Twitter Saturday.
Williamson was one of several scholarship players who did not join Ohio State for their Rose Bowl game against Utah (several missed it due to injuries, transfers, opt-outs or other reasons). Williamson, a fifth-year senior, said on Twitter that he retired.

Williamson received attention because he called out Ohio State fans over Twitter for their low football IQ. He similarly threw a shot at the coaching staff too for its low football IQ.
Almost as bad as some of these coaches

Williamson, a cornerback, had 27 tackles this season before retiring. The Columbus Dispatch says injuries and the emergence of Denzel Burke led to reduced snaps for Williamson this season.
