WASHINGTON - Maurice Clarett's bid to enter the NFL draft this weekend was turned down by the Supreme Court on Thursday, delaying for now his attempt to bypass the league's eligibility rule.
Clarett immediately filed a new emergency appeal with another justice.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (news - web sites) said she saw no reason to overturn a lower court's stay preventing the former Ohio State running back from being taken in the draft.
