Freshman safety Brendon White became the ninth Buckeye to lose his “Black Stripe” this year following Saturday's practice, the last of Ohio State's fall camp.

At Urban Meyer's Ohio State, losing your Black Stripe means you're now seen as a true Buckeye on the team and no longer a newcomer learning the ropes.

Freshman year of camp in the books...ended with getting the stripe off
