Receiver Duron Carter has left Ohio State and enrolled at a community college in Kansas.

Carter is the son of former Ohio State and NFL star Cris Carter. He has had academic problems and was declared ineligible for the Rose Bowl when semester grades were released in December. Coach Jim Tressel announced his departure Monday.

Carter caught 13 passes for 176 yards as a freshman last season. He’s enrolled at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College.

Ohio State also announced that defensive end Keith Wells will not be part of the team in 2010. No reason was given. Wells saw limited action for the Buckeyes as a freshman in 2008 and redshirted in 2009.
