1000% agree with all of this. I’ll be interested to see how his scrambling ability shows. Will he be hesitant to tuck and run like Stroud and Fields or will he head downfield as soon as he gets out of the pocket. If he can pick up those hidden yards turning a throwaway into 5 yards, that will surely help the offense a lot. I’m stoked to see this guy in the scarlet and gray! He’s got moxie!

Moxie knows how to play in space with his ears pinned back.

I am ready and excited for a number of “no no no…YES!” type of plays again.

Need gamebreakers in football. Guys that will shake off a sack and demoralize a defense.

McCord was an instant sack (or grounding). Stroud had the leash on until Georgia (OL kept him pretty clean in PassPro).

Fields was a magician getting out of trouble. I miss that.

I don’t expext Howard to be that…but he’s going to save some plays. And that will be a fun return to my college football watching.

So Lincoln and Brown hit the Portal?
Hope there’s a plan to have at least three in the qb room who know how to run the offense.

Unless Lincoln feels slighted, this isn't any different than McCord returning for his final year. Obviously that's a big if, but it's a very different situation for eligibility than Devin (or Kyle).

And Air is talented but not a sure thing behind him.

Lincoln needs to worry about the playbook and knowing the line calls before he even thinks about playing. He did not look even remotely ready.

Brown might go but Lincoln shouldn't.

And love the enthuasiam Howard is coming in with

Or it could be that Keinholz was going to have a longer development timeline due to the competition he faced in high school....it's entirely possible at least and only someone in the room would really know.

Well yeah... Kienholz couldn't be on campus until the Summer. He's a kid. I am referring to McCord and Brown who were in the system for 2 to 3 years before Day took over after Stroud, so that falls on the QB coach. The blame also falls on the OL coach who is supposed to be recruiting players appropriate to coach a Oline for a top 5 program, and actually coaches them. Development!

Accountability and that falls on the coaches.

(I am also speaking of rumors of possible coaching changes). IDK

Watched his highlights and I am impressed. I can absolutely see him improving his draft stock and helping Ohio St win next year. Potentially the best QB in the portal and it sounds like our staff thought so too.

Also like what Will had to say about Coach Day and the offense he runs.

Very exciting, I am over the Michigan and Missouri losses now and ready for 2024 ball. Go Bucks!
