The question Ohio State faced the day after winning the national championship was a familiar one: Who’s the next quarterback? With veteran transfer Will Howard gone after guiding the Buckeyes to their first national title in a decade, coach Ryan Day is back to evaluating a young quarterback room in hopes of finding the program’s next leader. After Thursday’s first practice of fall camp, he saw early signs of progress — and a long road still ahead.
“It’s just a start,” Day said. “We’re just getting moving around, so hard to tell. I do think all three of them look a little bit stronger, a little bit more explosive, moving better. A little bit more command of the huddle. But we’ll watch the film and kind of go from there. Day 1 without pads is kind of hard. We’ll have a better feel — give me four or five days and get a better idea.”
The Buckeyes have three former blue-chip recruits competing for the job: redshirt sophomore Lincoln Kienholz, redshirt freshman Julian Sayin and true freshman Tavien St. Clair. All three are talented but unproven. None have started a college game, though Kienholz and Sayin have combined for 34 pass attempts since arriving in Columbus.
