In the aftermath of Ohio State’s heartbreaking loss to the Michigan Wolverines, the Buckeyes have undergone a significant transformation on various fronts.
Ohio State rallied with impressive victories against Tennessee and Oregon, asserting their dominance in the college football arena. Head coach Ryan Day’s prowess in recruiting has been evident ever since he took the reins from Urban Meyer in 2018.
As the Buckeyes gear up for their upcoming Cotton Bowl clash against the Texas Longhorns, they are poised to land former five-star EDGE rusher, Damon Wilson II. Wilson, who previously played for the Georgia Bulldogs, has declared his intention to enter the transfer portal, causing a stir among college football enthusiasts.
Renowned analysts Pete Nakos and Steve Wiltfong of On3 have predicted Ohio State as the probable destination for Wilson, citing a confidence level of 60% following his announcement.
Looking ahead to the 2025 season, Ohio State is anticipated to field a talented roster, albeit with potential changes in their defensive line. Securing Wilson, a seasoned player with SEC experience, would undoubtedly fortify their defensive capabilities.
During his tenure with the Bulldogs, Wilson showcased his skills with 22 tackles, three sacks, and two forced fumbles, contributing significantly before Georgia’s untimely exit from the College Football Playoff.
The prospect of Wilson joining the Buckeyes highlights Ohio State’s commitment to bolstering their defensive prowess, setting the stage for an exciting chapter in the team’s trajectory.
