COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Torrance Gibsons once-promising, turbulent career at Ohio State appears to be over already. Vapormax Kaufen Schweiz .After being suspended for the fall semester, the former five-star recruit signed a junior college letter of intent with Mississippi Gulf Coast on Tuesday, signaling that he wont be returning to the Buckeyes.The university had suspended Gibson in August for a violation of the student code of conduct, and at the time football coach Urban Meyer publicly disagreed with the discipline.Ohio State declined to comment on Gibsons future.We are looking forward to having Torrance join our football program, Mississippi Gulf Coast coach Chad Huff said in a statement. We are confident in his abilities on the field and his character off the field, and we expect him to contribute to our team and the Gulf Coast community.Ohio State also had great expectations for Gibson when he signed after a high-profile recruitment, first as a potential dual-threat quarterback and then as a potentially game-changing wide receiver.Thanks to a logjam of passers on the depth chart and his dynamic athleticism, Gibson asked for the opportunity to switch to wide receiver after arriving on campus and looked capable of making an impact there with his 6-foot-4 frame.But the transition did not go smoothly, on or off the field for the Florida native. Gibson never stepped on the field as a true freshman as he struggled to find consistency with his new responsibilities as a wideout. He was also suspended for a game during his redshirt season.The hype that surrounded his recruitment was renewed during practices in April when Gibson capped off a productive month with six catches for 50 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the spring game. But again, that didnt last long.Ohio State announced Gibsons semester-long suspension shortly before the season opener.It was not from the athletic department or football, Meyer said at the time. I disagree with it.Meyer didnt provide any details then on what transpired and what led him to oppose the discipline. Ohio State has still not commented on the nature of the violation.But nearing the date when Gibson could re-enroll as originally anticipated, it appears the plans have changed.As far as his ceiling, hes as talented as anybody Ive been around, wide receivers coach Zach Smith said before the season. The ceiling is extremely high.

Jordan Lynch, the all-purpose Heisman Trophy finalist from Northern Illinois, failed to make it into that exclusive club. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks have seen the Jets ugly game film from last week, when Ryan Fitzpatrick kept throwing the ball to the other team.One interception after the other -- six in all for the New York quarterback.Carrolls not expecting anything close to that type of slopfest on Sunday when the Seahawks (2-1) take on the Jets (1-2).Well, theres three games, plus the preseason and last season, and we have all kinds of stuff were looking at, the Seattle coach said.Were not looking at just that one. That was an outlier and wed love to have a game like that ourselves, but that is probably once in a career. We know were going to be up against it.The Jets get the chance to prove theyre more like the well-oiled offense that rolled up 493 yards in a 37-31 win at Buffalo two weeks ago than the mistake-prone unit that struggled in a 24-3 loss at Kansas City last Sunday.That would be crazy if I could sandwich two player of the week (selections) around that awful game, Fitzpatrick said, but thats (six interceptions ) just something that cant happen.New York will be facing a tough task Sunday against the NFLs No. 1-ranked defense.Theyve probably been the standard for the longest, Fitzpatrick said. Its a lot of the same guys, same scheme and its tough. Its tough to play against them.The Seahawks have allowed just 37 points in three games, ranking them second in that category. San Franciscos 18 points last week are the most Seattle has given up this season, so Carrolls crew is stingy, as usual.That doesnt mean the Seahawks, playing at MetLife Stadium for the first time since winning the Super Bowl in 2014, are taking anything for granted against the Jets.Very impressive so far, Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett said of New York. Brandon Marshall is a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Matt Forte is a Hall of Famer, too, so there are a lot of good players. Ryan Fitzpatrick is doing a great job. Eric Decker always does a great job catching, so this is a very good offensive team.Here are some other things to know about the Seahawks-Jets matchup:RUSSELLS HUSTLE: Despite spraining the medial collateral ligament in his left knee last Sunday against San Francisco, Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson is expected to start against New York.Carroll said Wilson practiced fully Wednesday and didnt see any reason, barring a setback, that the QB would be able to play.Its Wilsons secoond significant injury of the season, though, after spraining an ankle in the opener against Miami. Vapormax Schweiz. . Jets coach Todd Bowles doesnt anticipate Wilson changing his style of play in light of the injuries, with New York expecting the Seahawks star to still try to make plays with his arm and feet.No, hes a tough guy, Bowles said. Im pretty sure hell take care of himself.JETS RECEIVERS: New Yorks receiving group is a bit banged up heading into the game, with Decker uncertain to play with a shoulder injury that kept him out of practice.Marshall was a full participant, but is still dealing with knee and foot ailments, while rookie Jalin Marshall will be sidelined a few weeks with a torn labrum.That leaves Quincy Enunwa, the Jets surprise leader with 17 catches, newly signed Jeremy Ross and rookies Robby Anderson and Charone Peake as the teams only fully healthy receivers.RED-ZONE STRUGGLES: The Jets were one of the most efficient teams in the league last season in the red zone, ranking third overall (66.04 percent) on TDs inside the opponents 20-yard line.New York has been surprisingly inconsistent this season, with just six touchdowns in 16 drives into the red zone for 37.5 percent, including 0 for 4 last week.THE AWAKENING: Christine Michael is going to be Seattles primary ball carrier for the time being -- with an opportunity to earn the starting job permanently.Starter Thomas Rawls is out for a few weeks with a cracked fibula in his left leg. But Michael showed he can handle taking on the load last week against San Francisco rushing for 106 yards -- his second career 100-yard game -- and scoring the first two touchdowns of his career. But the most impressive part of Michaels first three games this season is his 5.2 yards per carry average.His eyes are wide open and hes kind of taking everything in, Carroll said.FULLY LOADED: Seattle is expected to have rookie right guard Germain Ifedi in the lineup for the first time during the regular season.Ifedi suffered an ankle injury the week leading up to the opener against Miami and missed the first three games. Carroll has no hesitation about putting Ifedi back into the starting lineup.---AP Sports Writer Tim Booth in Renton, Washington, contributed.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
