INKED: A BACK AND FORTH ROAD LED TYLER GERALD HOME, WHERE HE WANTED TO BE ALL ALONG
There's the short story of the Tyler Gerald recruitment, which is easy, quick, and to the point. It's the story of a kid from Ohio who busted his butt to earn a scholarship offer from his favorite school, did so, and promptly committed.
THE GERALD FILE
Tyler Gerald's story isn't one of a kid who has had it easy, and he's not the type of kid who's ever taken a shortcut or sought out personal glory. He's just a kid from Portsmouth who loved Ohio State and found a home in Columbus after searching for one for quite a while.
The 6-foot-5, 300-pound Gerald and the Buckeyes began their relationship in earnest at the end of March 2014. He headed north to check out Ohio State with only an offer from Kent State to his name. It turned out to be quite a positive trip.
"I liked the facilities, from the practice fields to the meeting rooms," Gerald told 11W of that first trip. "It was good experience for how the college atmosphere is. They said that they definitely want to see me at camp this summer before any decisions (about an offer) are made. They seemed to be interested and I definitely will camp there."

I'm confused.
It said he transferred to IMG in Braedenton, FL
The above says he's at Gahanna Lincoln
I think he's at IMG, is that right or did I miss a transfer?

Should say Portsmouth East. Perhaps it was an error that they have since corrected. I have fixed it here...I'm confused.

According to Urban Meyer on 97.1 today, Tyler came onto campus a little overweight
Sounds like he'll be spending a lot of time getting to know Coach Mick this coming year. Usually see redshirts for O-Linemen anyways, but gotta think despite being on campus early, coming from IMG, and having 3 open spots on the O-Line, pretty good odds this will cause him to redshirt this coming year

Wow, did not see this coming. Heard some good things on him later on in the year from practice and thought he would compete for playing time next season. I was so high on Tyler, really bummed to see him transfer.

They asked Meyer about him in the recent press conference in his thread and he said that he just quit. He seemed to be in on and know the particulars of the other players that were transferring but my take was that he was surprised by this one.
