Freshman Offensive Lineman Grant Toutant Loses Black Stripe

Another freshman has shed his black stripe.

Freshman offensive lineman Grant Toutant can now "officially" call himself a Buckeye as the former three-star prospect shed his black stripe following Tuesday's practice.

Toutant lost his stripe on the same day as fellow offensive lineman Trey Leroux as the pair become the 19th and 20th players in Ohio State's 2020 freshman class to shed their black stripes.

"First off, I'd like to thank Coach Stud, my unit, coach Mick and the strength staff," Toutant said after shedding his stripe.
