COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State coach Ryan Day said the addition of Oklahoma transfer running back Trey Sermon will give the Buckeyes some depth at a position that has become a question mark because of injuries.
Sermon, a graduate transfer whose season was cut short by a knee injury after nine games last year, joins a stable that includes Master Teague III—the heir apparent to departing star J.K. Dobbins—along with Marcus Crowley and others. But Teague is rehabbing from an Achilles injury suffered on the first day of spring practice, before it was called off entirely because of the coronavirus pandemic, and Crowley is recovering from a knee injury suffered last season.
