It’s not out of the ordinary to see players move on through the transfer portal, and for the second time this “offseason,” Ohio State is seeing a player on the move.
According to Jeremy Birmingham of Rivals, Buckeye safety [autotag]Cam Martinez[/autotag] has entered the portal and look to finish his career elsewhere. The fourth-year player had his playing time decrease significantly from last year, as younger players jumped him on the depth chart.
Martinez played in only two games this season, against Youngstown State and Wisconsin, registering one tackle in each game. With the Ohio State secondary being so deep, this isn’t a huge loss.
Ohio State 4th-year safety Cameron Martinez tells me he'll enter the transfer portal.
The Buckeyes defensive back is open to playing either side of the ball at next stop. He was a two-time Michigan HS Player of the Year (2018-2019) and the Gatorade Player of the Year in 2019.

It will be interesting to see if others from this group join Martinez in moving on, especially considering the talent the Buckeyes have entering the program from the 2024 recruiting class.
