Jimmy Sotos will get to play for Ohio State this season.

After the Bucknell transfer guard had an initial waiver for immediate eligibility turned down by the NCAA, a second waiver request has been approved today. A senior, Sotos will now be counted on to provide important depth one day after Utah State graduate transfer Abel Porter’s career ended due to a medical condition.

While at Bucknell, Sotos played In 100 career games during three seasons and averaged 8.1 points, 3.9 assists and 3.4 rebounds in 28.2 minutes per game. He has 77 career starts and has started all but one game during the last two seasons. Last year, he was the only player to start all 34 games and he became the first Bison since 2010-11 and the eighth ever to lead the team in both scoring (11.5 points) and assists (3.9).
