UPDATE (1:41 P.M.): BTN's Taylor Rooks reached out to Tyvis Powell for the reasoning behind the semi-retirement:
Buckeye fans are sad they won't be Twitter entertained by Tyvis Powell & Darron Lee, so I asked him about the hiatus. pic.twitter.com/3xQrax7Zg4

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:
I guess I'll talk to yall after spring ball, BACK TO THE GRIND!!!

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.
