We all saw it during the spring game. They can scream "you can't judge off a spring game" all they want but he looked like the exact same QB as last year mechanically. The foot work is still a disaster zero improvement there and he still throws every pass as hard as he can. At this point he's an over glorified temu version of Joe Milton

He’s going to have figure it out fast too, because they’re trying to put talent around him, but idk if he’ll be good enough to make the right reads consistently and they will also need to lead in every game early. They won’t have the type of offense to strike fast if they get down like 2 or more tds early.

I just don’t see them losing 5Gms. This program finds the most ugly ways to win. I don’t see them winning against Oregon. But the rest of those games are toss ups to me. And I hate that they can rely on a defense to keep them in tight games.


Underwood couldn’t transfer, he makes too much and I’m sure that contract is ironclad too if Ellison has anything to do with it. Whittingham and his staff are probably the worst coaches this kid can have. they run an offense That is successful, but much more reliant on bigger, stronger as a primary runner than as a passer, but when called upon to pass will almost always move the chains.
I don’t see a snowballs chance he benches Underwood. He would have to be the worse QB in all P4, like multiple turnover games and double digit passing in multiple games type bad! His salary dictates that he starts and Whittingham is coming in knowing that. But he has a built in scapegoat if it doesn’t go well, “he wasn’t my guy, if I had my guy I would’ve been successful “. If they don’t make the CFP, or B1G championship he has that line locked and loaded. And even still, he’ll be stuck with Underwood for another season

They got lucky to not lose 5 last year (including the bowl game) with a far easier schedule.

I think even the Pedsters have a shot at them this year.

The only system Underwood is really currently fit for is handing it off more often than not. You aren't gonna be successful airing it out with him either with his accuracy issues.

WRs are gonna be pissed anyway. Last year 3 of Utahs top 5 pass catchers were TEs or RBs and the #2. WR only had 15 catches. After the #1 WR the ball pretty much goes to TEs and RBs

Which is exactly why you'll see Patricia employ the 3rd "safety" more like a fast outside linebacker when they play in November...unless something significantly changes between now and then.

They aren't beating Oklahoma without being able to pass the ball either....or Oregon. Or Iowa. Or likely Indiana.

I think they are more likely to go 7-5 than 9-3...and the chances of them getting into the playoffs are around the same as me banging Sydney Sweeney....

I don't see much changing. Whittingham and staff aren't exactly gurus when it comes to developing passers. If Underwood were serious about improving himself he woulda transfered but instead he's holding the bag at scUM to play in a offense that's probably less friendly in terms of getting a QB to the pros than the Sherrona Harbaugh offense.

And the new staff isn't as beholden to his aura (if that's the right word)....it will be far easier for them to say "well, we tried, he sucks" and go to that other kid that seems to fit their scheme better.

Deciding When to Retire

It's funny, at work all of the old timers pack their lunch. All of the snot nose entry level kids order Ubereats for lunch. The get their nails did and their eyebrows plucked at the Vietnamese salon next door for a cool 80 bucks. Kids today have no chance because they can't manage their money. The thing is they're all living with their parents and aren't taking advantage of the opportunity to save. When I graduated high school I had nothing. I joined the service, lived in the barracks, ate at the mess hall and when I got out I worked remote Alaska for four years, free room and board. My only expense was my calling card. To be honest all though I've never been a super earner or a savvy investor as an adult I've never had money problems.

I think the big difference between now and 1980 is it's so much easier to blow your money now in comparison to back then. Back then you pretty much had to leave home and walk into a store or restaurant or wherever it was to blow your money. Now you can do it from home sitting on your ass using a cash app.

LB CJ Sanna (Official Thread)

Better Know a Buckeye: CJ Sanna’s Rise In Just Two Years at Middle Linebacker Shows His Raw Ability and Potential

CJ Sanna only played two years as a middle linebacker in high school, but he quickly ascended to become a top-15 linebacker in the 2026 class in those two seasons.

Better Know a Buckeye: CJ Sanna’s Rise In Just Two Years at Middle Linebacker Shows His Raw Ability and Potential​

162613_h.jpg

Scouting Report​

In the middle of the Olentangy defense, Sanna showcased his football IQ, awareness, and instincts. With his ability to run downhill, he excels as a QB spy and run stopper. He uses his eyes and elusiveness to avoid opposing blockers and make plays on the ball.

Sanna made a habit of trucking opposing ballcarriers over with his strength and size in high school, but he must wrap them up more consistently as he goes against bigger and stronger players at the collegiate level.

With just two years of full-time linebacker play under his belt, Sanna has shown the ability to be a dominant playmaker in the middle of the defense while having plenty of room to learn and grow at Ohio State.

Depth Chart Outlook
Just like he was in the latter two years at Olentangy, Sanna is projected to be a Mike linebacker for Ohio State. With that, his first season as a Buckeye will certainly be a developmental one. Payton Pierce will lead the depth chart at Mike linebacker for Ohio State in 2026, while Riley Pettijohn, fellow freshman Cincere Johnson and rising sophomore Eli Lee are among the other Buckeyes who will likely be ahead of him on this year’s depth chart.

Sanna must develop well to become a future starter in the loaded linebacker room that James Laurinaitis has built, but playing for one of the best linebacker coaches in the country will give him a chance to maximize his potential and become a difference-maker for the Silver Bullets.

Player Comparison: Tommy Eichenberg​

After redshirting his first season as a Buckeye in 2019, Eichenberg received very minimal playing time in his second season in Columbus, totaling just two tackles. But he started to make a name for himself in his third year at Ohio State and became a dominant linebacker as a redshirt junior in 2022.

In his fourth season with the Buckeyes, Eichenberg notched 120 tackles (12 for loss), 2.5 sacks, an interception and three pass breakups. The 6-2, 235-pounder totaled 268 tackles (21 for loss), 2.5 sacks, two interceptions (one pick-six), five pass breakups, a forced fumble and one fumble recovery in his final three seasons at OSU. He was a fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft following his fifth season with the Buckeyes.

Sanna, like Eichenberg, is an in-state linebacker prospect who was a four-star recruit. Also like Eichenberg, Sanna will likely need multiple years of development before he plays a major role for the Buckeyes. But if Sanna can continue to develop into a do-it-all middle linebacker after switching to the position before his junior season in high school, the 6-2, 230-pounder could follow a similar path as Eichenberg to eventually starring in the middle of Ohio State’s defense.
