Ohio State Buckeyes former running back and NFL bust Maurice Clarett has apparently been blogging from prison.

“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,” Clarett blogs.

Clarret is serving a minimum of 3 1/2 years for his 2006 conviction for aggravated robbery and carrying a concealed weapon.

“Instead of entertaining people with my life, I am using certain events to educate, inspire and help others make conscious choices so they can avoid circumstances like this. It is easy to say that I messed up my life and show pictures while creating a storyline for entertainment, but it does nothing for humanity as a whole,” Clarett writes. “That’s good for water cooler conversation, but it does nothing for the young men who didn’t make it to the NFL and have no future in college and are looking to the streets for an outlet.

Good to hear from you again Maurice. Enjoy the rest of your stay in prison.
