The Ohio State DB didn’t have much to say about the decision to transfer and simply declared that he was entering the portal on Twitter. Nothing else was said about it other than that.

Dunn was ranked as a 4-star S per the 247Sports Composite. 247Sports also had him ranked as the No. 10 S and No. 2 prospect from his home state of Kentucky. Dunn picked the Buckeyes over the likes of Alabama, Boston College, Arkansas, and Baylor.

This is not the first Ohio State player to announce his plans to transfer. On Dec. 5 LB Teradja Mitchell stated that he will be entering the portal after the season.
