QB J.T. Barrett (B1G FOY, All American, Silver Football Award, 3x B1G QBOY, National Champion)

[shiloh]

Can we rid ourselves of this guy or is he entertainment?

Yes!

So when JT isn't on the team next year will that be the end of Buckeye football controversy?

 

[KOBuckeye]

With the surgery, the NCAA has granted JT a medical redshirt this year. Looks like he will be our starter next year as well!

I thought you guys would be excited.

This pretty much guarantees copious called carries for the RBs.

Beanie Wells on 97.1 in Columbus saying that J.T. Barrett will not play tomorrow due to an open wound and obvious swelling in the knee, and would therefore be unable to do QB runs.

No, he didn't.

You mean the same Beanie Wells whose nickname was "pussy" by his teammates at tOSU?

Is this true?

 

[dragurd]

Is this true?

Even if it was totally uncalled for.

 

[AirForceBuck15]

No, he didn't.

Sorry couldn’t post the link earlier but I see they corrected the language.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Poor bastard cannot catch a break!

 

[Steve19]

Is this true?

Sure. Just walk up to him and ask him yourself. He gets a real kick out it. So will you!

 

[Thump]

Is this true?

Yes.

Had to have surgery on Sunday, per Tim May, but still expected to start. (If it's not a smokescreen so they don't prep for Haskins. Is it common to have arthroscopic surgery on your meniscus on a Sunday and play the following Saturday?)

Still crazy he was injured by a tsun photographer on the sideline moments before kickoff. Almost feels like it should be a bigger story than it is, for the sheer oddness if nothing else.

Arthroscopic is pretty light. Usually it's a precursor to an intensive surgery later... just to clean some shit up or see what's really going on in there.
I imagine they went into it intending him to be ready and kept it simple. And don't be surprised if he has a major surgery requiring recovery time in the offseason.
Surgery is still surgery though [shrug]

Watched "The Journey" on BTN last night, which had a segment of Senior Tackle before The Game. When JT spoke, he was genuinely crying, saying he was "A Buckeye for life". I hope he gets to play against Wiscy and has the game of his career...

Hopefully his best games are coming in a few weeks

Targeting !!!

You'd think so... but then you'd think that if JT had a nagging knee injury all year that was just exacerbated on the sideline before the game that it would guarantee more designed runs for the RBs
I just assume now if JT is in the game they're going to put it all on his body every play.
