Quinshon Judkins, a sophomore running back, has joined the Ohio State Buckeyes from Ole Miss after entering the transfer portal on Friday. He decided to leave the Rebels, who have a strong roster for next season.
He announced his commitment to the Buckeyes via his X (formerly Twitter) account.
“I chose this place because I know I can help this team win championships as well as continue my development as a student-athlete. Go Bucks.”

Judkins’ arrival was celebrated by Ohio State fans as archrival Michigan won the national championship last night, claiming it surpassed the national championship vibes.
“Better than the Natty,” a fan reacted.
“Respect for posting this right after Michigan won the Natty,” another fan wrote.
“That makes up for the sour night! Welcome aboard!” a fan tweeted.

Quinshon Judkins has experienced a drop in efficiency
Judkins, a star running back in the SEC, entered the transfer portal after two seasons. He rushed for over 1,500 yards and 16 touchdowns as a freshman in 2022 and followed that up with 1,158 yards and 15 touchdowns this season. However, his efficiency dropped from 6.7 to 5.2 yards per carry.
His reasons for transferring are unclear, but some possible factors are his desire to play for a different team, his financial situation, his health, or his dissatisfaction with the current coaching staff.
Quinshon Judkins was a three-star recruit in 2022, but he is now considered one of the top prospects in the transfer market by 247Sports.
