QB1 Julian Sayin (National Champion)

I think back to the game thread from last year when Sayin came in and bounced a short pass to a receiver. Some in the thread were very critical. I find that amusing when you look at him now.
I’ve got like 9 brain cells left. I can’t afford to spend them on that kind of recall.

His placement is like nothing I've ever seen in college. We hear all about the Big2 receivers making him look good, but that absolutely goes both ways. Far more often than not the ball is right where it's supposed to be. They're obviously capable of acrobatic catches and have made them when they've had to, it just doesn't happen very often.

Following Day's appearance, Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin hopped on the microphone with Paul Keels and Jim Lachey.

Julian Sayin​

On his first season as Ohio State’s starter​

  • “It’s been fun just developing and getting more comfortable in the offense.”
  • “We’re still striving and still chasing the best version of ourselves.”
  • “We’re trying to get better every week.”

On what he learned from Ohio State’s leadership last season​

  • “It was awesome to see those veteran leaders last year.”
  • “I took so much from them, from a leadership standpoint, from a preparation standpoint.”
  • Sayin called Will Howard “a pro” and said he learned a lot from him last season.

On Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate​

  • “Those guys are special players. Having them on the outside, it’s definitely exciting as a quarterback.”
  • Sayin said everyone needs to do their job on offense, from him, to the running backs, the offensive line, the tight ends and wide receivers.
  • “We need everyone to do their part, but those guys are special players.”

On Ohio State’s quarterback development​

  • “Coach Day, he’s a really good quarterback coach for us. He teaches us a lot. We take so much from him. He’s hard on us, but we wouldn’t want it any other way.”
  • “Coach (Billy) Fessler, Coach (Brian) Hartline, they do a really good job with us.”
  • “We’re still getting better each week.”

On Ohio State’s defense​

  • Sayin said Ohio State “is a very challenging defense to play against.”
  • “Coach P does a great job with that defense.”
  • “They give us some complex looks.”
  • “It’s a very good defense to play against. It makes it hard on us.”

To be fair, last year he was the size of a 14-yo girl, and didn’t have the strength to throw all the way to the sideline. With another year of strength training, he’s the size of a 16-yo girl and can throw the ball much farther.
