Ohio State's latest freshman to lose his black stripe is a big one.

Offensive lineman Josh Myers, listed at 6'5" and 305 pounds, officially joined Urban Meyer's program Thursday morning.

Myers enrolled in January as a four-star recruit capable of power snatching 155 pounds with one hand. Last week, he earned praise from Meyer for his work on scout team preparing the defense for Army's triple option.

Linebacker Baron Browning, wide receiver Jaylen Harris, and walk-on receiver Garyn Prater also lost their black stripes.
