Antonio Henton, the AJC's player of the year for the 2005 season, will transfer from Ohio State to Georgia Southern and be immediately eligible for the 2008 season, a source close to the process has told the Journal-Constitution.

The official announcement of Henton's transfer is expected to be made on Monday.

Henton is currently in summer school at Ohio State and will report to Georgia Southern in time for preseason practice. He will have three years of eligibility remaining.

Antonio, we hardly knew ye
When some players transfer, it doesn't seem like a big loss.

For example, Erik Haw may be a good running back, but Ohio State was stacked at that spot and we hadn't seen much to think Haw was going to be a stud. When he left for Jackson State after 2006 spring practice, no biggie.

Rob Schoenhoft, same thing. He transferred to Delaware in January, and my honest opinion was "good for him, that might be his level." I had not been impressed with his accuracy in his time here.

But Antonio Henton is another story. It appears he is about to leave for Georgia Southern, and I find myself almost saddened.

He is a likable kid, for one thing. Very positive, always smiling, gentle nature. If anything, he seemed a bit on the naive side, but it was charming.
