Report: Ohio State to add Duke graduate transfer kicker for 2016

According to a report, Sean Nuernberger may be getting some competition for next season.

Ohio State was excellent in nearly ever facet of the game last season, on their way to a national title. But if there was one thing that wasn't outstanding, it was the kicking game. According to a report from the Duke Chronicle, Ohio State may be getting reinforcements there as well.

The Chronicle is reporting that Duke kickoff specialist Jack Willoughby will head to Columbus next season as a graduate transfer, and will be eligible immediately. Willoughby projects to compete for both the kickoff specialist position at Ohio State, as well as for field goal kicking duties, which were held by freshman Sean Nuernberger.
