Mathieu Grujicic, a 6‑foot‑7 guard originally from Europe, has moved from Ohio State University to Radford University ahead of the upcoming season.
At Ohio State, Grujicic spent a single season but struggled to secure consistent minutes, a challenge that prompted his decision to seek a more prominent role elsewhere.
Big South Ambitions
Radford competes in the Big South Conference, a league known for its competitive balance and opportunities for emerging programs to make noise.
The university hopes that adding a player of Grujicic’s size and experience will strengthen its frontcourt and provide a fresh spark for fans.
Four other Ohio State teammates also changed schools this offseason, underscoring a broader reshuffling that could reshape the conference landscape.
Grujicic has voiced a clear intention to contribute immediately, emphasizing his readiness to impact games from the outset.
The move reflects a strategic approach by Radford’s coaching staff to blend veteran presence with youthful energy as they aim for a stronger postseason push.
