Clutch stuck to the flywheel??????

Got the whole clutch hydraulics replaced but I can't get the engine to turn free of the transmission.
Whem I push in the clutch, I get all kinds of travel of the rod. So much that the lever arm got caught on the pressure plate. I left the adjustment nut set to the position when I bought the car (clutch not working). I kept backing out the adjustment until the arm just cleared.
I wonder if the clutch is frozen to the flywheel? I can see the throwout bearing move the fingers on the pressure plate. I can keep pushing in until the lever arm hits so I guessing I have full travel.
Any ideas? I haven't tried the electrical system yet. Maybe trying the starter with the clutch in might free it? With the car in second gear, I had Adam push in the clutch. When I rock the car the engine turns so I'm guessing it is stuck.
Any ideas?
