UPDATE (1:41 P.M.): BTN's Taylor Rooks reached out to Tyvis Powell for the reasoning behind the semi-retirement:


Well, the off-season just got real, y'all. While this isn't on the level of Carlos Hyde being accused of punching a woman in a seedy downtown bar, it's about as bad of news that's likely to come from the most likable team in Ohio State's history:

Darron Lee and Tyvis Powell are retiring from Twitter until after spring ball.

Yes, just two days after running a legendary tag-team effort on the Heisman finalists, Lee and Powell (for reasons truly unknown) have announced they are retiring their Twitter accounts until after spring ball:

Lee and Powell are too of Ohio State's best Tweeters, and as an avid fan of their work, it's hard for me to express how disappointed I am about this news. Alas, such are the breaks of the game.

Lee and Powell both maintain Instagram accounts, so maybe the show will continue over there.
