RB Sam Williams-Dixon (Official Thread)

Ohio State playmaker makes honest admission about his original decision to enter the transfer portal and leave Columbus​

img_0872.webp


Ohio State had a star-studded running back room in 2024 between TreVeyon Henderson and Ole Miss transfer Quinshon Judkins. Now that they’re off to the NFL, the Buckeyes have to turn the page.

Ohio State has two returning backs with James Peoples and Sam Williams-Dixon back as sophomores. Neither saw big playing time last year in very limited roles. Additionally, the Buckeyes brought in three running backs in the class of 2025. West Virginia transfer CJ Donaldson is expected to be a major part of the room.

One piece of the room that didn’t always look like would be returning is Williams-Dixon. The sophomore running back entered the transfer portal a couple of months ago but opted to return to Ohio State. Williams-Dixon admitted that it wasn’t the right decision to enter the portal in the first place.

“For starters, it was just me listening to the wrong people,” Williams-Dixon said on Wednesday. “I had to take care of my life. I didn’t have control of it and I got control of it. What brought me back … I didn’t want to leave. I love it here.”

Brought over from VA Tech with Bowen. This is his version of Sollene(its a plus that he also has some OH ties). Definitely seems like a grinder in the coaching game, and he just hit his first big boy job

A fine idea. I swear that after Buster Douglas that Tyson that there was a story about the Mayor of Cincy calling the Mayor of Columbus and telling him that naming the outer belt around Columbus the James Buster Douglas Way was a bad idea… “just look at us, we have Pete Rose way…”.

A top offensive tackle in the 2026 class is headed to Columbus next week.

Per 247Sports, four-star Idaho prospect Kelvin Obot will be visiting Ohio State, his first trip to OSU since picking up an offer from the Buckeyes last month. The 6-foot-5, 265-pound prospect is considered the No. 147 prospect nationally, the No. 13 offensive tackle and the top player from Idaho per 247Sports’ composite rankings.

He’s been offered by 22 Division I schools, primarily from the West Coast and Midwest. Some of those offers include Arizona, Auburn, Boise State, BYU, Cal, Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Oregon, Purdue, Tennessee, USC, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin.

Obot will be at OSU on March 21 and stay through the weekend. He also has plans to visit Wisconsin, Michigan and Tennessee this spring. He’ll set up official visits after that and likely make a college choice before the start of his senior year.

Skull Session: Evan Turner Buried Michigan 15 Years Ago, Greg Oden and Mike Conley Almost Went to Wake Forest and Bryce Underwood Tells LeBron James “It’s Over for Ohio State”​

On choosing Ohio State over Wake Forest​

“If Chris Paul was gonna say at Wake Forest, I probably would have went with Mike to Wake Forest. I would say that. But Chris Paul left for the league. Mike wanted to go there and play with Chris Paul, but Chris Paul leaves. … It wasn’t etched in stone (that I would go where Mike went), but we had a good visit down there at Wake Forest. I’ll put it like that. It was a good time. Nah, I will say this, though. When we went to the Texas-Ohio State football game, just seeing that atmosphere on that visit and seeing what that city was, I think we all kind of were like, ‘Alright, this is it. This is where we want to be at.’ But I think Wake Forest was definitely a very, very close second.”

On Ohio State’s loss to Florida in the national title game​

“Going up against Florida, as you all know, Taurean Green, Corey Brewer, (Lee) Humphrey, Al (Horford), Joakim (Noah), Chris Richard coming off the bench, Marreese Speights a freshman. … They’re arguably one of the best college basketball teams in history. Actually, they have to be top five because there are only three or four of them that actually went back-to-back. If we hit a couple more threes, I would like to say I hope we had a better chance. But f— everybody that does the Gator Chomp. That s— hurts my soul to this day. I’m a grown a— man, but when I see the Gator Chomp, I see a tear. I’m like, ‘You know what? This some bull—.”

On leaving Ohio State for the NBA​

“The week before I went to school, it was nothing. After the championship on Monday, going to class on Wednesday, I couldn’t make it a block without people getting out of their cars, asking for autographs, stopping to take pictures. Literally, I couldn’t make it to class. I went back to my dorm, called Coach (Matta) and I’m like, ‘I literally can’t make it to class. I’m overwhelmed.’ That’s when I knew it was about to happen.
“(But) I wanted to stay. We were that close. You think about all the times (Conley and I) won in high school, in AAU, in eighth grade. You think about our high school years, we barely lost 10 games. We probably lost three in AAU. It’s less than 15 games from sixth grade, seventh grade, up to college. I wanted to win. But I went and talked about that to Coach, and he was like, ‘Ha. Get the f— out of here.’ It was like a soft laugh. ‘He was like, ‘You can’t do that, brother. I can’t do that to your family. I can’t do that to you.’ When you’re put in this position, you have to take advantage of that. I am thankful for the people around me. My life changed after that.”
