WFE12 9,191 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 You're missing something. He's listed between Kevin Hogan of Stanford and Cardale Jones of OSU. Don't see how cardale is on there, I know he did awesome last season but braxton miller is back and I don't think they will run a 2 qb system because it won't work, ask les miles lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,096 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 He's on with an asterisk. It notes at the bottom that he's on as the projected starter for OSU. I take that to mean he's a placeholder for their starter, whether it's Jones, Barrett, or Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUEngineer2016 407 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 You're missing something. He's listed between Kevin Hogan of Stanford and Cardale Jones of OSU. Don't see how cardale is on there, I know he did awesome last season but braxton miller is back and I don't think they will run a 2 qb system because it won't work, ask les miles lol Honestly, I think that JT Barrett is the best fit for their system. Yes, each of the 3 fills a niche and are best in certain situations, for example Miller is the most elusive and dynamic runner, and works that read option insanely well. On the flip side, Cardale has a cannon for an arm and can be a bruiser when he needs to be, but IMO he is not nearly as shifty as the other two. JT on the other hand seems to be a mix of the two, and while he is neither the best passer nor the best runner, he is a mix of the two styles that forces defenses to focus on both, often leaving them confused. That allow the run to open up the pass, and visa versa. Sorry for the hijack, but those are my 2 cents on the tOSU QB situation. I do think that we will see all 3 of them play this year during different situations, and I would be shocked if Meyer didn't use a formation that put 2 or more of them on the field at the same time, Like we did with Johnson and Marshall last year.
