Ohio State’s out of options for helpful defensive tackle additions in the transfer portal.
With Justin Kirkland's commitment to BYU on Thursday, the Buckeyes’ last target at the position came off the board. The window for new transfers to enter the portal closed on April 25, and each of the top 50 defensive line prospects in the 247Sports transfer rankings has selected a school already.
Defensive tackle was Ohio State’s top priority entering the spring portal window, but the Buckeyes aren’t taking players just to take players, nor should they.
“We want to make sure that when we bring somebody in, it has to be an upgrade to what we have,” Ryan Day said on Tuesday.
