Judkins had interest from many programs but ultimately picked the Buckeyes on his visit. He stands in at 5’11 and weighs 205lbs. He has long running speed and is very hard to tackle for defenders. But is difficult to get an angle against with a second gear that makes him tough to catch in the open-field. He overall is a very talented running back. Judkins elevates his game with being very elusive. He has rushed for 2,725 yards and 31 touchdowns so far in his two-year career, and has been commended for his high motor and athleticism on the field.

Furthermore, Judkins commitment adds an elite piece to an already-solid running back room. He joins incumbents TreVeyon Henderson and Dallas Hayden in a three headed monster of a room. There is certainly a chance Henderson could decide to go pro after this move, but both running backs are reportedly content to share the load. It is believed by both that a tandem would allow the two to stay fresh for a playoff run and save potential tread on their tires for the next level. Judkins makes the portal class for the Buckeyes look increasingly better, adding a lot to Ryan Day’s offense and has home run power like Henderson. This RB room could blend really well with new QB, Will Howard. He joins Howard (Kansas State), offensive lineman Seth McLaughlin (Alabama), and tight end Will Kacmarek (Ohio) so far in the Ohio State transfer class.
According to 247sports, the star running back is ranked as the #4 player in the portal. This season, he rushed for 1,158 yards and 16 touchdowns on 271 carries.
