Good morning and a Happy Friday 11W!

Since we're without a CFP matchup of our own this round, let's look at some transfer portal rumblings. As a reference point, tOSU had 15 players enter the transfer portal last year and some B1G names transfer into the program as well.

Here's some intel from the Interwebs:

1) Jelani Thurman (TE) - JR, he was "predicted" to enter the portal last year. 165 snaps in 2024 compared to 135 snaps in 2025 even with increased TE usage.

2) Bryson Rodgers (WR) - JR, caught his first TD this year w/ 2025 stat line of 6 REC, 79 YDS, 1 TD.

3) Malik Hartford (S) - redshirt in 2025 but potential openings in the defensive backfield with multiple players leaving for the NFL.

4) Sam (Williams) Dixon (RB) - entered portal last year but returned to Columbus. 2025 stats 3 CAR, 9 YDS, 1 TD.

One additional note on a player who is entering the portal and has been reported to be considering coming TO Columbus, Chaz Coleman from PSU.

Here's the links, going and coming so let's hear your portal thoughts on these players.
