Hart is the 24th Buckeye to lose his black stripe since the start of fall camp in August and began in September, and the 30th overall player to shed his stripe this year, including seven walk-ons.
Offensive lineman Ben Christman, defensive back Jaylen Johnson and quarterback Quinn Ewers are now the lone scholarship players in the 2021 recruiting class yet to shed their black stripes, though Johnson is out for the season with an ACL injury.
