Star safety Caleb Downs committed to the Ohio State Buckeyes in January, but is now allegedly considering transferring back to Alabama.
With left tackle Kadyn Proctor also intending to return to Tuscaloosa, it is no surprise that Caleb Downs is trending online.
While these rumors are yet to be confirmed, the internet is buzzing with the news and funny memes.
Caleb Downs switches allegiance after over 100 calls
During a media interaction in January, Downs said he got 102 calls once he entered the transfer portal.
“I got 102 calls in one day – well not in one day, probably seven or eight hours,” Downs said after leaving Alabama.
In the end, Ohio State was the right fit for him.
“I just love the program here, I love Coach [Tim] Walton, and love what the people had to say around here. I believe in Coach [Ryan] Day, and I believe in this team.”
Downs was already making waves as a freshman at Alabama. He played in all 14 games and recorded 107 total tackles, two interceptions and a forced fumble. But after coach Nick Saban's departure and the arrival of new coach Kalen DeBoer, Downs decided to enter the transfer portal and find a new home.
And while there are rumors that he might return to Alabama, it seems like he could surprise Ohio State and the CFB world once again.
