Ohio State Linebacker Keandre Jones Transferring to Maryland, Per Report

Ohio State linebacker Keandre Jones is transferring to Maryland for his senior season, according to a report by 247Sports' Jeff Ermann.

An Ohio State spokesperson confirmed that Jones is leaving the program.

Per Ermann's report, Jones is already enrolled in classes at Maryland for this semester.

A native of Olney, Maryland, Jones was originally committed to his home-state school before flipping into Ohio State's recruiting class of 2016 on the same day as Dwayne Haskins. Both of their decisions to decommit from Maryland at the time were made in part because of the departure of then-interim head coach Mike Locksley, who recently returned to the Terrapins as their new head coach.
