Two-Minute Drill: Urban Meyer from the B1G Media Days Podium

Meyer believes the pressure has been relieved a bit on J.T. Barrett because of the quarterback competition last year. He is now healthy and has had the necessary reps. Meyer is anticipating Barrett being as good as anybody he's had.

In my opinion Urban Meyer has always been "up front and honest" with his comments about his players and that (above) says a lot about JT.....

So, I'm on the Fantrax website looking at the player draft list.

Why does it show Barrett as "suspended"? Do they know something we don't know, or is that a leftover from last year they just haven't updated?

He's definitely not suspended. Likely a leftover from last year that never got updated.

FINALLY WITH THE KEYS TO THE CAR, OHIO STATE'S J.T. BARRETT SET TO BEGIN SEASON AS THE UNQUESTIONED STARTING QUARTERBACK

Urban Meyer thought back to J.T. Barrett’s first career start and smiled. Ohio State’s head coach can joke about it now, and his remarks after Wednesday’s practice almost perfectly illustrated his feelings back then.

“The first time he got his first start he certainly wasn’t driving the car,” Meyer said. “He was in the front seat somewhere, but he wasn’t driving it.”

Now, two years later, Barrett finally has control of the wheel.

For the first time in his career, Barrett is unquestionably Ohio State’s starting quarterback at the beginning of a season. Back during that 2014 year, he was thrust into the fire with just over a week until the first game after Braxton Miller suffered a season-ending injury. In 2015, he was in a quarterback battle for the ages with Cardale Jones.

But ever since Jones declared for the NFL Draft way back in December, the 2016 season belonged to Barrett. And with just two days remaining before kickoff, the redshirt junior signal caller is ready to go.

“I think it’s good just [Meyer] being able to give me the keys to the car in order to drive it,” Barrett said Wednesday. “Confident in what I’m doing and how I progressed as a quarterback here. It’s a good feeling to have your coach say that.”
