Quinshon Judkins Extends Contract with Ohio State
The Ohio State Buckeyes’ campus erupted with excitement as news broke: Quinshon Judkins, the star running back and Heisman Trophy finalist, had officially agreed to a contract extension, ensuring his future with the Scarlet and Gray for another season.
Judkins, who had transferred to Ohio State two years earlier, had become the heart of the Buckeyes’ offense. His bruising runs and electric breakaway speed had made him a fan favorite, as well as a nightmare for opposing defenses. In his second season with the Buckeyes, he rushed for over 1,800 yards, scored 21 touchdowns, and played a key role in Ohio State’s playoff run.
The extension, announced during a packed press conference, was a statement of commitment not just to the team but to the entire Buckeye Nation. “This program has given me so much—an opportunity, a family, and a chance to chase championships,” Judkins said. “I’m excited to keep building something special here.”
Coach Ryan Day echoed Judkins’ sentiments. “Quinshon is the kind of player who defines what it means to be a Buckeye. His work ethic, leadership, and ability to deliver in the biggest moments make him one of the best players in college football,” Day said.
The extension came with a wave of speculation about Ohio State’s offensive future. With Judkins staying, the Buckeyes solidified their title hopes, especially with the return of key offensive linemen and the emergence of a new quarterback expected to complement Judkins’ powerful rushing attack.
Judkins’ decision also sent a powerful message about loyalty and his belief in the program. With NIL opportunities aplenty, some speculated he might enter the NFL Draft early, but Judkins made it clear that his heart was still in Columbus. “There’s unfinished business,” he said. “We’ve got a championship to win.”
As fans chanted “O-H!” during the press conference, Judkins smiled, knowing he had made the right choice. The Buckeye faithful were ready to follow him to the promised land, and Judkins was ready to lea
d the charge.
