Jaedon LeDee, who views himself as a small forward or power forward, never wanted to play center at the collegiate level. But given the lack of depth in the middle, partially stemming from the transfer of Micah Potter two days before the beginning of the 2018-19 season, Ohio State needed him at center to back up Kaleb Wesson.
Following the transfer of LeDee, which the program announced on Thursday afternoon, the Buckeyes are left once again searching for a backup to Wesson. They also will have an additional scholarship at their disposal, increasing their amount of open scholarships for the 2019-20 season to three.
