This story is so random that I am not sure what to think of it. Ohio State football recruit, Alex Anzalone, is leaving the school because a sex offender posted photos of the two together online. Now I know when you first read this you think, dirty photos. No basically this guy, Charles Eric Waugh, found Anzalone during a recruiting trip and asked to have a photo taken with him in a public place. Then Waugh put the pictures up online. Waugh was found guilty of five counts of possession of underage sexual content. Waugh also reached out to Anzalone, other recruits, Ohio State coaches, and athletes online. No one has said what the connect of the messages were. But it must have been pretty intense to make Anzalone give up his slot at Ohio State, who team is shaping up to be pretty good this year.
The school has sent out Waugh’s mug shot to everyone and is taking the necessary precautions. I’m not sure whether Anzalone was scared of a sex offender scandal breaking out because he was in a photo with this guy or if he just wasn’t really feeling Ohio State.
