Kentucky is front-runner to land Ohio State transfer Marcelys Jones per report

The Kentucky Wildcats could be in the mix for one of the biggest transfers of the summer.

Ohio State Buckeyes offensive lineman Marcelys Jones is transferring from the program after one year. According to 24/7Sports, Kentucky is his likely destination.

Jones signed with the Buckeyes as an Army All-American and four-star prospect per 247Sports coming out of Cleveland Glenville in the Class of 2014. He was the first to commit in the class, back on Christmas Day of 2013, and enrolled early, but not before some last-minute drama and rumors that he might enroll at Kentucky rather than Ohio State.
