Ohio State football’s Ryan Day provides status update on transfer defensive end
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Defensive end Logan George has yet to play for Ohio State football this season, though he hasn’t been listed on either of the Buckeyes’ two availability reports.
His lack of playing time in a Week 1 win against Texas was not surprising. However, his absence in a 70-0 win against Grambling State — a game in which OSU had 35 players take defensive snaps — raised questions.
Coach Ryan Day addressed the matter Tuesday.
“We’re hoping to see him play this week,” Day said. “Full week of practice here. He did practice last week. We held him from the game, but we’re expecting a full week of practice and ready to go Saturday.”
George’s return would be a welcomed one for a talented but inexperienced defensive ends room.
Kenyatta Jackson and Caden Curry are seniors, but they’re starting for the first time in their careers. C.J. Hicks is also a senior, but he’s in his first year as a full-time defensive end after moving from linebacker in the offseason.
Senior Beau Atkinson is relatively experienced, but he transferred to OSU from North Carolina in the spring.
Behind those four, George and freshman Zion Grady are the top options.
George is in his first season with Ohio State after transferring from Idaho State — a Football Championship Subdivision program. He signed with the Buckeyes on Dec. 23.

If You Could Put Any Cleveland Baseball Player from the Past on the 2026 Team, Who Would it Be?
We are beginning to see the 2026 roster shape up – now it’s time to get your time machines out.
What Cleveland baseball player from the past would make the biggest impact on the 2026 Cleveland Guardians?
Is it 2017 Francisco Lindor anchoring the team from the shortstop position? Or 1948 Lou Boudreau?
Is it 2002 Jim Thome or 2006 Travis Hafner providing thump in the middle of the lineup? Maybe 1953 Al Rosen gets to DH and spell Jose at third?
Is it 2014 Michael Brantely in right field? 1994 Kenny Lofton in center? 2006 Grady Sizemore in center? 1920 Tris Speaker in center?
1995 Albert Belle providing a shock to the system in left?
Or do you want an ace – maybe 2017 Corey Kluber, 1946 Bob Feller, 2008 CC Sabathia, 1969 Sam McDowell, 1972 Gaylord Perry, 2008 Cliff Lee or 1968 Luis Tiant?
