Ohio State Lands Alabama Transfer CB Cam Calhoun

The Cincinnati native arrives with two years of eligibility after previous stops at Michigan, Utah, then Alabama.

Overview

  • Calhoun committed to the Buckeyes via the NCAA transfer portal on Jan. 15, according to multiple reports.
  • He played sparingly for Alabama in 2025, finishing with seven tackles, one pass breakup and one fumble recovery.
  • His most productive season came at Utah in 2024, when he posted 21 tackles, one interception and nine pass breakups.
  • This move makes Ohio State his fourth program in four years, and he retains two seasons of eligibility.
  • He is expected to fortify cornerback depth as Jermaine Mathews returns and Devin Sanchez steps into a starting role, with Ohio State also adding Alabama defensive lineman James Smith this week.
