The fine folks with the Ohio State football team have issued the availability report for the game against Notre Dame, and there are a few notable names that will not be taking part in game No. 1.
The most notable name on the following list is Julian Fleming. The former five-star recruit from the state of Pennsylvania has suffered more than his fair share of injuries throughout his career and most were extremely excited to see him at full strength for 2022.
Fleming is a tough cat who despite injury is still listed as a game-time decision. Early in the summer, it was reported that Fleming had his shoulder pop out during a scrimmage and still caught a touchdown only a moment later, so I would be willing to bet he plays today.
Game-Time Decision:
- WR Julian Fleming
Unavailable:
- RB Evan Pryor
- CB Lloyd McFarquhar
- LB Mitchell Melton
