Ohio State brought in far more transfers than ever before this offseason while losing only nine scholarship players to the portal, tied for the second-fewest among Power 5 schools.
In Ryan Day’s first four years as Ohio State’s head coach, the Buckeyes never added more than three scholarship players from the transfer portal in any year. This offseason, the Buckeyes have added eight scholarship-level transfers: quarterback Tristan Gebbia , offensive linemen Josh Simmons and Victor Cutler Jr. , defensive tackle Tywone Malone , cornerbacks Davison Igbinosun and Lorenzo Styles , safety Ja’Had Carter and long snapper John Ferlmann .
“To say we're just gonna go recruit 15 transfer guys and bring them in just to say we're bringing in 15 transfer guys? No, we're not going to do that. But every year, maybe you take one, maybe you take five, maybe you take 10. I don't know. We'll have to continually figure that out on a year-to-year basis,” Day said.
Day has consistently laid out a specific set of criteria when outlining Ohio State’s transfer portal approach. The Buckeyes are looking for players who fill needs, who they view as upgrades and who they are confident will fit the team’s culture.
