Can't Erase and format my HDD is Disk Utility in the Mac OS X Installer. Help

The disk is originally in NTFS. Whenever I try to erase using Disk Utility after booting off USB Clover and then opening up Disk Utility inside the installer it doesn't work. Let me explain:

After click erase and choose the Format as Mac Os (journaled) (or whatever the whole name is) I click the erase button and then it unmounts the drive, reformats it and stays unmounted. It says the error: MediaKit reports not enough space on the device. (Even though its a 1TB WD BLUE fully formatted from windows.) To fix it I have to erase and fail it back to exFAT or msFat (i think). Boot up windows and reformat back to NTFS. Any help would be awesome!
