Bennett also shared how grateful he is for all the support and help of Ohio State’s program and promised to be the best teammate he can possibly be.
“I am sorry that I put myself in this position and even more disappointed to have let down my teammates, coaching staff and family. I accept responsibility for my actions and for this suspension. The Ohio State staff does an outstanding job educating us. This could have been so easily avoided had I reached out to our training staff about the supplement and confirmed it was within policy. That will forever be a lesson learned and something all athletes should be aware of going forward.”
Christian was a four-star recruit in the 2022 class. Looks like Bennett Christian learned his lesson during the suspension period and will come back soon in 2024 with a clean, healthy body and mindset.
