Ohio State running back Chip Trayanum enters transfer portal

Add another loss to the Ohio State roster. Chip Trayanum announced Wednesday he will once again enter the transfer portal.

Trayanum spent the past two seasons in Scarlet and Gray after spending his first two years at Arizona State. As a Sun Devil, Trayanum rushed for 692 yards and 10 touchdowns. However, when the Ohio native transferred to Ohio State, the plan was for him to play linebacker. With the rash of injuries at running back in the fall of 2022, Trayanum went back to the offensive side of the ball to add depth.

Trayanum platooned in the backfield again in 2023 rushing for 373 yards and three touchdowns. The biggest of those touchdowns came in South Bend, Indiana, in the closing seconds to give the Buckeyes a win over Notre Dame, a win fans will long remember.

Trayanum is the 13th member of the football team to enter the transfer portal this season. He does so as a graduate of Ohio State and will seek a new home as a grad transfer. Best of luck to Chip in his next steps.
