Former Ohio State safety Jahsen Wint finds a new home

Jahsen Wint finds a new home in Huntington, West Virginia for the 2023 season.

Shortly after finding out that former Ohio State defensive back, Amir Riep would continue his football at Lincoln University in Oakland, California, we now know where Jahsen Wint will resume his career. Wint announced that he has committed to Marshall University.

In a YouTube video that is close to nine minutes long, Wint takes you on a journey in three parts. Starting with his upbringing and walking through the events that happened during and after his case, the former Buckeye announced he will be attending Marshall in the fall.

You can watch Wint’s video in its entirety below courtesy of his personal Twitter feed. However, please be warned there is some adult language.

Wint came to Ohio State in 2016 and spent four seasons in Scarlet and Gray. He appeared in 35 games with the Buckeyes and became part of the rotation in 2018. He recorded 39 tackles and a sack in his OSU career.

Wint will look to step in immediately to help the Thundering Herd who went 9-4 in 2022, ending the season with a win over UConn in the Myrtle Beach Bowl.

BREAKING: Ohio State players Amir Riep and Jahsen Wint have been dismissed from the team

Ryan Day has announced that Ohio State football players Jahsen Wint and Amir Riep have been released from the team.

Ohio State players Amir Riep and Jahsen Wint are no longer on the Ohio State football team per a release from head coach Ryan Day late Wednesday.

“I have dismissed Amir Riep and Jahsen Wint from our football program,” said Day through a release. “I am not making any statement on the criminal charges, but it is clear they did not live up to our standards and my expectations. The athletics department will make sure they both continue to have access to the health and well-being resources available to students and student-athletes. Due to the ongoing criminal investigation, I will not be commenting further.”

News broke late Wednesday that the two were charged with kidnapping and rape and a warrant issued for their arrest. And while those charges will have to work their way through the court system as a very serious matter, it is clear that Ryan Day is taking a no-nonsense approach — as he should.

We’ll have more on this if it becomes available.
