Most intriguing transfer portal options at running back for Ohio State

We dive into the five most interesting options for Ohio State at running back in the transfer portal. #GoBucks

We already broke down our expectations for how Ohio State handles the transfer portal regarding the quarterback position. Now I want to dive into the running back position.

So far there has been very little news or noise surrounding portal activity for the backfield, but much of that is due to the focus on TreVeyon Henderson and whether he is staying in Columbus.

Even if Henderson decides to stay, which is highly unlikely, the once full stable of horses is depleted with the departure of Chip Trayanum and Evan Pryor to the portal and Miyan Williams to the NFL. Only Henderson and Dallan Hayden remain viable options for the starting role next season.

It would not be surprising to see the Buckeyes make a move to add another back to the roster with a bit more experience than a possible incoming true freshman. The following are not the top backs in the portal, but the top five guys I believe would be an excellent fit.

This has been a rough season for Wake Forest. After winning their first three games, the Deacons have lost six of their past seven. Their bowl hopes rest on whether they can win their final two games or at least one on the outside chance that there aren’t not enough six-win teams. Regardless, it’s not a great situation to be in.

Notre Dame isn’t going to take it easy on the Deacons just because they’re struggling. If anything, the Irish will be on a mission to improve their own bowl resume.

The Deacons have a tall order in trying to salvage something of this season, but they’ll try to do so anyway. Here are the players who can help them do that:
