Kentucky lands elite Ohio State OL transfer Tegra Tshabola
The Kentucky Wildcats have made another big splash in the transfer portal, landing former Ohio State starting right guard Tegra Tshabola, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports.
Tshabola was a two-year starter for the Buckeyes, starting 29 straight games and helping them win the national championship in 2024. He was named to the All-Big Ten third team by the media and was an honorable mention by the coaches in 2025.
He entered the portal following the season, quickly becoming one of the top available offensive linemen. The 6-foot-6, 322-pounder visited the Auburn Tigers first before taking a trip to Lexington and committing to the Wildcats. He will have one season of eligibility at Kentucky.
Tshabola is ranked as the No. 91 overall player and No. 2 interior offensive lineman in the transfer portal by 247Sports. He allowed just 12 pressures and one sack last season, but finished with a PFF grade of 56.3, the lowest of Ohio State’s starting offensive line.
Kentucky’s transfer class now has 23 commits, ranking as the No. 6 class in the country and the No. 4 class in the SEC. Tshabola is the sixth offensive lineman they have landed as the new coaching staff has prioritized rebuilding the trenches. They have also landed four-star offensive tackle Lance Heard and four-star interior offensive lineman Coleton Price, giving them arguably the best offensive line haul of any team in the country.

Ohio tornado warnings: what residents should know
Severe storms June 17 in Ohio: know tornado watch vs. warning, safety steps, shelters and alerts.
A tornado was confirmed to have ripped through the Florence area during the overnight storms June 18.
The National Weather Service in Wilmington released a statement June 20 saying a tornado traveled eastward 6.2 miles across the Northern Kentucky city, 10 miles south of Cincinnati. It had estimated peak winds of 100 mph, which classifies it as an EF1 “moderate” tornado on the Enhanced Fujita Scale.
The tornado’s path goes mostly through residential areas, and the first evidence was found on Landings Way where several trees were snapped at their trunks, the weather service reported.
The tornado progressed east, crossing Interstate 71/75 and then seemingly dissipating on Tallwood Circle where multiple large branches were downed, the final known instance of damage.
Along the way, the tornado uprooted multiple trees and snapped branches, damaged several buildings and businesses, and snapped a large power pole near the intersection of U.S. 42 and Dream Street, according to the weather service.
How many tornadoes have been confirmed in Greater Cincinnati, beyond?
As of 1 p.m. June 20, the weather service has confirmed that apart from the one in Florence, two other tornadoes touched down in Greater Cincinnati on June 18:
- An EF2 “significant” tornado that traveled about 9 miles from Dearborn County, Indiana, to Boone County, Kentucky.
- An EF2 “significant” tornado that traveled just over 5 miles from Franklin County, Indiana, to Butler County, Ohio.
A few other tornadoes have been confirmed outside the Greater Cincinnati region, including an EF2 that traveled 23.6 miles from Scott County, Indiana, to Trimble County, Kentucky; an EF2 that traveled 9 miles across Pike County, Ohio; and one in Grant County, Kentucky, just north of Williamstown.
The weather service said details on the Grant County tornado will be released later on June 20.
