Put tranny in high gear, and rock truck back & forth. Sometimes it works.

I had a stuck clutch on a Mopar I worked on. I started the engine and warmed it up in neutral. The car was up on four stands, nothing in front of it, big door in the garage open, tires on and blown up. I put it in second gear, and started the engine, then with left foot holding clutch pedal down, worked it up through third and into fourth by tickling the gas pedal. Took it up to a hundred, then mashed the brakes hard. Had to do this three times to break it free. It worked fine after that, quiet, no binding, no grabbing.
