The transfer portal might be white hot when it comes to football, but it's also a big deal when it comes to college basketball. All you have to do is look at the national champion winner Michigan, which had five starters all out of the transfer portal. You can rebuild a team in a hurry in today's Name, Image and Likeness and transfer portal universe.
That's exactly what Ohio State head coach Jake Dibler and staff will be trying to do this offseason as well. The OSU program put down a great stepping stone by making the NCAA Tournament, but now it's time to go further and look to retool and do more next season.
We've already gotten some news on some OSU players who are looking to enter the transfer portal, and we're keeping track of the roster and what news becomes available as we go through the national shell game that is the transfer portal, which opens up on Tuesday.
Here's a look at where things stand.
