This former Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver could land with the worst team imaginable in the transfer portal.
The Ohio State Buckeyes have experienced some considerable leakage this winter, as a host of Ohio State players have decided to enter the transfer portal.
Among them was five-star wide receiver Quincy Porter, who committed to the Buckeyes last December and decided to bolt after just one year.
To make matters worse, Porter could potentially land with a nightmarish team in the transfer portal: the Michigan Wolverines.
Brian Dohn of 247 Sports has revealed that Michigan is one of many squads "expected to show interest" in Porter, who logged just four catches for 59 yards in Columbus this past season.
Porter is the fourth wide receiver to depart Ohio State this offseason, with Mylan Graham, Bryson Rodgers and Damario Witten also deciding to skip town.
It's also important to keep in mind that Carnell Tate is entering the NFL Draft, so the Buckeyes' depth at wide receiver has shrunk considerably.
Now, it should be noted that Ohio State is importing four receivers in its 2026 recruiting class, including five-star talent Chris Henry Jr. and four-star pass-catcher Jerquaden Guilford.

Michigan, meanwhile, is returning Andrew Marsh at wide receiver after a very impressive freshman campaign. The Wolverines are very thin behind him, though, which is why Porter would actually comprise a great fit in Ann Arbor.
The 6-foot-4, 210-pound weapon was the fourth-ranked wide receiver and the 31st-ranked player overall in the 2025 recruiting class, via 247 Sports composite rankings.
Porter was probably going to have a legitimate chance of earning playing time next season, although there is no question that Ohio State's addition of Henry may have clouded things.
The Buckeyes went 12-0 during the regular season this year, but fell to Indiana in the Big Ten Championship Game and then lost to Miami in the Cotton Bowl.
It was definitely a major reality check for Ohio State, which, up until its loss to the Hoosiers, had not previously lost since falling to Michigan at home in November 2024.
