Ohio State’s Bodpegn Miller Enters Ontario’s Transfer Portal
Ohio State University freshman receiver Bodpegn Miller is set to join the NCAA transfer portal, according to various reports. Miller, who hails from Ontario, graduated from high school in December 2025 to enroll early at OSU.
During his time with the Buckeyes, he participated in spring practice but did not see any game action. Miller, a four-star recruit, was signed by former offensive coordinator Brian Hartline, who recently became the head coach at the University of South Florida. Notably, Miller played as a quarterback at Ontario, leading the Warriors to a regional runner-up finish in 2024.

As college football continues to adapt to the evolving landscape of transfers, Miller’s decision to enter the portal reflects a trend within Division I programs. The Buckeyes are currently navigating a tumultuous roster situation as players pursue Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals. This environment has led to claims that college football resembles a chaotic free agency scene.
Transfer Portal Statistics
According to a recent CBS Sports report, more than 3,350 players, constituting approximately 25% of the Football Bowl Subdivision, are now in the transfer portal. This significant figure raises concerns about the state of college football, which some describe as operating without regulation or oversight.
Miller’s transfer is not an isolated incident but part of a larger phenomenon affecting college athletics. The absence of a defined structure in the transfer process can lead to increased uncertainty for players and programs alike.
