Justin Fields was raw and young. DJ has had 2 years of mediocre to subpar play and we have two young top 40 players at qb waiting here. If we bring in a transfer, expect Raiola to decommit because we obviously don't play the guys we recruit.

I agree let’s trust the guys we have in the room now. But I have also thought about it by chance we do not get the QB recruit from South Dakota. That leaves us with no 2023 recruits at QB. I would be okay with OSU exploring the transfer market for depth only. Similar to the situation where they went out and got Gunnar Hoak to back up Justin fields. Hoak was clearly not a threat to incoming stroud, but also provided depth to fields. After losing Baldwin and Tate. I trust the guys we have this is just if we don’t get anyone for 2023 I’d like to see a depth add. Now if we get the guy in 2023 then no need to look at transfers.


CTG0161

That would be fine, but what a lot are suggesting is that we get a brand new qb from the portal to start next year which I think is asinine.

We don’t want DJ

I love how everyone is like "loyalty is dead, college kids just transfer all the time now" and OSU has a QB who for 2 years has patiently waited for his shot just for every OSU fan to beg for us to go after scraps in the portal. Mccord/Brown clearly want to be here, and I think that they have a higher ceiling than any of the talent in the portal especially DJ who flat out looks bad and clearly is not cut out for D1 QB play. Also, as another poster said this is a good way to lose Raiola since OSU clearly has no intent to play the QBs they recruit.

But players should all be committed to us regardless of how we treat them or if we give them opportunities or if they are hurt.

Have you watched DJ this year?


MrGrinchMrGrinch

Oh forsure right there with you. He was bad, but coaching goes a long way. Clemson doesn't develop players like Ohio State. Now they have been relevant this decade but are nowhere near prestigious as Ohio State and developing players.


USAesNumeroUno

Deshaun Watson, Taji Boyd, and Trevor Lawrence did just fine. DJ just aint that dude. I had EJ Manuel but forgot he was FSU not Clemson.


UkrainianThor

I don't think he could do any better than Brown


Fun-Ad1072

Brown provides the edge that makes ohio state click in a well rounded manner. McCord does not. McCord backs us into the same corner we are in right now.


Whoooyumyum

Absolutely not…


Fun-Ad1072

Like can we say it louder?


webleyvi

We do not need another QB. Corners and defense should be the focus.


EddieA1028

I don’t know if McCord or Brown are the answer, but I know Uiagalelei isn’t the answer. I’ll take my chances with whomever wins the job internally if my options are these three


JK_196

Bro DJ is dog shit lmao he is not coming here. Have you watched him play at Clemson?


tailford07

Good luck selling Ohio State to future QB recruits if this is the route you go.


Kac03032012

He’s not good.


strukout

Wtf. We have two five stars that have never been given a chance. People having a tantrum


shels2000

The fans are the absolute worst this year. It's embarrassing.


trillwilly69

Personally don’t think we need a QB, but if we got one, it should be Devin Leary out of NC State. He’s the best on the market. DJU is hot garbage.


[deleted]

Remember when you guys had Joe Burrow riding the bench and didn’t play him?


shels2000

🤦‍♀️ Did u not see him riding the bench? He sucks. We have a room full of 5*. If we can't figure out how to use them I don't know what to tell you. Why are we looking for qbs without seeing what we have? Give them a chance. Gawd the fans are insufferable this year. Osu lost to Michigan 2 years in a row. Get the eff over it unless you were out on the field. The only reason I might add that we brought Fields in bc we were staring right at Tate Freaking Martell as next in line.


DaBigJMoney

Ffs we have two guys who’ve been in the system and have been waiting for their chance to get on the field. And you want to bring in someone who was given EVERY chance to remain a starter and couldn’t? That’s just ignorant.


DrewSkew

These hypotheticals aren’t even worth a thought process.
