Ohio State QB Battle Nears Resolution

Ohio State football has commenced its preseason training camp with high expectations and a focus on resolving key positional battles, notably the quarterback competition. Coach Ryan Day aims to finalize the starting QB within 7-10 days, with Will Howard currently leading the race, but Julian Sayin and Devin Brown also competing. The team’s urgency is heightened by three consecutive seasons of losses to Michigan, yet Day insists the pressure is consistent with previous years. Additionally, Ohio State is looking to develop its offensive line, relying on third-year players to unlock their potential. The Buckeyes are leveraging NIL agreements to retain 16 starters and enhance their roster through the transfer portal. Meanwhile, Purdue's Hudson Card has solidified his position as the starting quarterback, with other players vying for the backup role.
