QB Kenny "the old righty" Guiton (WR Coach Wisconsin)

[matcar]

Christian Ponder is constantly criticized for his arm strength.

Ok. Doesn't help our man Guiton.

I like KGs ability to run the offense and his decision making skills are very very good. I would like to see him get sordid under the ball on some of the deeper thros.

Lists Kenny as one of the top unsigned players in the Houston area and says that whoever lands him will be getting a steal.

I like going back and reading up on a kid. I'd say he was more than a steal.

Just meant, there's a precedent for even starting QBs with no arm strength

Arm strength.

There is jack shit wrong with his arm strength. The bomb that got picked off was a 50-yard laser instead of being a 55-yard arc. He may not have a cannon, but he doesn't have a weak arm either...

His arm is fine for CFB, not NFL.

And it's more than fine for FBS-level college football, and that's what matters here.

Yup, but that wasn't what the discussion was about. I like KG, seems like a really great young man along with being a true Buckeye. I just don't see NFL when watching him. ...and that's ok.

I hope he wasn't being mentioned as nfl caliber... He's nowhere near that, nor will he be. But who cares, most kids aren't. At least he's getting a great chance to play CFB, and in his final year, he can make some noise and win us a game or 2. Hell have some great football stories when his career has moved on, because we're certainly going to need him this season, not only for his play but most importantly for his leadership, poise and maturity. I hope some if those attributes can be passed on to guys like cardale and Jt, and in turn they can pass it on to Stephen collier, and future kids. With KGeezy as our backup I'm not as worried when braxton is on the sideline.

Whoa... KGeezy is ThaKidd - hope NFLbuck sees this...

What I was trying to say is that I just don't see Miller as an NFL QB - receiver? Definitely. That said, I think Kenny possibly has more of what an NFL scout would be looking for than Braxton. That said, who would I start on Saturday with UFM's offense? Braxton.

Just saw this over at nbcsports. At first, I thought this was written by boneheads over at yahoo sports.

The Buckeyes better hope that Miller is healthy enough to at least take some backup snaps (if needed) since no other quarterback on the Ohio State roster has game experience.

If you re-read it, it implies that Guiton will start and Miller needs to be healthy enough to be the backup if needed, because neither Jones nor Barrett have game experience.

Which is true, but I wonder how many teams have a 3rd QB with game experience. Yes, it is tough when your starting QB goes down because your experience is typically limited after the 2nd guy.
