Meechie Johnson announces he will enter the transfer portal after two years with the Buckeyes.
Battling through injuries this past year, Johnson appeared in 26 games and started five of them for the Buckeyes, but shot just 30.8 percent from the floor and 27.8 percent from 2-point range.
Johnson reclassified to join Ohio State a year early in 2020, but appeared in just 17 games for the Buckeyes two seasons ago as he played just 5.8 minutes per game as a true freshman. Johnson is the latest in a laundry list of backcourt contributors to depart from the Buckeye program this offseason. Jamari Wheeler, Cedric Russell and Jimmy Sotos all exhausted their eligibility this past year, while Malaki Branham recently announced he will test the NBA draft process this offseason, leaving the Buckeyes without a slew of guards that they had at their disposal in 2021-22.
