Ryan Day “Fired Up” Regarding the QB Competition in 2024
Consequently, the Ohio State Buckeyes will start a different player against the Missouri Tigers in their Cotton Bowl game against teams ranked in the top 10.
Devin Brown is his name, and he competed with McCord for the starting position before to this season.
Day stated, “The objective is to play Devin.” “We would take action to include Lincoln in the game if the circumstances warrant it, but Devin will be the one playing.”
Having said that, Brown is not assured of a starting position in 2024 simply because he is beginning the Cotton Bowl.In fact, Day claims that Brown, Lincoln Keinholz, and incoming freshman Air Noland appear to be in a wide-open competition.
Day stated, “I think competition is very, very healthy.” “I believe Lincoln has really been improving, and I’m eager to see Air start up here this spring. Devin’s practice for the past few weeks has me fired up.Additionally, Lincoln and Air are young, gifted men who aspire to play sports.
Brown appears to have the advantage. Mostly because of his background in the system and on the pitch, at least in the early going.
Having saying that, Kienholz and Noland are both extremely gifted young players. Noland is one of the most gifted quarterbacks to come to Columbus in a long time. He is a five-star prospect according to Rivals.com and a composite four-star quarterback.
Noland is ranked higher by 247Sports than guys like Brown and Keinholz, as well as players like C.J. Stroud, Tate Martell, Dwayne Haskins, J.T. Barrett, Joe Burrow, Troy Smith, and Cardale Jones.
Naturally, a rating is not absolute. Had that happened, things might have turned out a bit differently for Kyle McCord, who is ranked as the third-best quarterback commit in programme history.
Rather, the person who has the greatest understanding of the offence going into the opening game of the following season against Southern Miss will be declared the competition winner.
Day said on Wednesday, “You don’t know how quickly they can learn the offence, get used to it, and learn from their mistakes until they come in and just start to.” Experience is an irreplaceable asset. However, there are certain individuals who you can tell right away are capable of handling the knowledge and the necessary steps. And most males need some time to figure that one out. Many guys are nervous and want to jump in and start playing straight away because it sounds fantastic. But in terms of their development, that’s seldom the best. But every guy is different. And once we start our spring practice, we have a greater understanding.
