| - Maurice Clarett writes that he's blogging from prison so others will learn from his wrong decisions. The tailback who led the Buckeyes to the 2002 national championship is in the Toledo Correctional Institution on his 2006 conviction for aggravated robbery and carrying a concealed weapon. In his blog, Clarett says he's taking courses through Ohio University and is interested in public speaking when he is released. He writes that he is blogging in the hopes he can reach others before they make the kind of choices that landed him in prison. "There's no need to talk to a reporter these days. I am my own newspaper. I am my own editor. ... I am able to put things into the proper context," he writes in one entry. "Time in prison was necessary due to my actions but it's my personal belief that I can use my celebrity to assist more people in so many creative ways that I've come up with than to occupy this cell at $25K per year." Read Maurice Clarett's prison blog He's serving at least 3½ years for a holdup outside a Columbus bar and a highway chase months later that ended with police finding loaded guns in his SUV. Clarett doesn't have computer access in prison. His mother tells The Columbus Dispatch he phones the blog entries to relatives, who post them.
