They've updated the roster to include the incoming Freshman and any additional transfers / PWOs. Some new & notable names on there. Also FWIW, all of the Freshman from the 2021 class appear on the roster, so that's a good thing.


Already Known Transfers
Chris Mayfield - DT - Michigan State transfer (from Hilliard Bradley)
TJ Jackson - OL - Big time (6'7) Virginia Tech transfer


Other Transfers
James Bostic - WR - 6'3 Vanderbilt transfer
Javon "JJ" Conner - WR - 5'10 Southeastern Louisiana University (FCS) transfer
Jonah Wieland - P - Grad transfer from Akron, Hudson High Grad
Stephen Johnson - K - Back-up Oklahoma kicker. From OU to OU.

Bostic is a 3 star WR out of Florida.

Both kickers look good and we certainly need some competition for both kicker and punter.

Bostic could be a beast..played in the SEC a few nice catches against FLA Gators..Big Strong Receiver..Dad played RB at Auburn and NFL.

Hopefully Johnson upgrades the kicking game, either directly or by motivating Vandenberg to turn it around. The placekicking in just three games last year was beyond inconsistent and straight up a liability.

+1

for the team that loses important games by small margins, we need to have some reliability there...

good information for sure. glad to see they brought in some competition at punter and kicker.
glad to see they got the roster updated too. Although it may need a little fine tuning. Not sure freshman linebacker Quintel Quinn is 6'10" but if he is maybe he's a two-sport guy and we'll see him at the Convo...

With this punter Jonah from Akron, is that pretty rare for a MAC player to transfer to another MAC school?

In any case, Ohio had a good look at him when he punted 10 times last year against the Bobcats.

One time I see Denzel Daxson listed as a Senior and the next time he’s listed as a Junior.

What is he?

I would say his class listing is the most confusing of any player that I’ve followed.

What did he do to lose eligibility?

It would be awesome to see him and Mayfield together for two years.

The roster is a hot mess. Also, pretty sure Cam Odom is not a Redshirt Junior lol

I noticed that some are listed as "redshirt fifth year." I haven't seen that before. Is it a new classification because of the 2020 exemption or just a way of saying "grad student"? I don't think there are any grad students on the roster.

hahaha. Right, Love Odom but he has been here so long it feels like he came in with Solich and Albin. Dude has to be in his last year

Daxon comment hilarious. Dude must have gone through a time machine?

Good question. I'm leaning toward the COVID thing but the roster is tougher to read in terms of eligibility now.

Before COVID, you could look at the updated roster and see how much eligibility a guy had left, now, not so much. For instance, QBs Beler and Harris came to Ohio with the 2020 class and are currently listed on the roster 'redshirt freshman.' It confusing because, for eligibility purposes, they are freshmen, not redshirt freshman, because the 2020 season didnt count for eligibility purposes. If Beler does not play four or more games in 2021, he is a redshirt freshman in terms of eligibility going into 2022.

Daxson now back to being a junior….good news.

Looks like some work on the roster has been accomplished…..still have a 6’10” WR….he will be tough to handle in the red zone.

At this point, and after a seemingly 10-year wait, I'll be happy to get one year from Daxon.

Daxon and Caesar in the game at the same time would certainly clog the running lanes.

Our LBs would certainly enjoy the freedom too

Michigan State transfer Mayfield could play DE in a pinch.

Speaking of Daxson how about putting Daxson at FB like The Bears used refrigerator Perry…lol.

Already Known Transfers

Other Transfers
James Bostic - WR - 6'3 Vanderbilt transfer
Javon "JJ" Conner - WR - 5'10 Southeastern Louisiana University (FCS) transfer
Jonah Wieland - P - Grad transfer from Akron, Hudson High Grad
Stephen Johnson - K - Back-up Oklahoma kicker. From OU to OU.
Bostic is a 3 star WR out of Florida.

Both kickers look good and we certainly need some competition for both kicker and punter.

Bostic is a load.

My sleeper pick this year.

WR group will be outstanding.
