Pryor and Bauserman are both seniors, so that only leaves three QBs to compete for the starting spot next season, and it seems unlikely we take a QB in the '12 class... so yeah, I don't see anything abnormal about the situation.

Call me crazy but I don't think I've ever been this excited for an OSU football season. I think this entire controversy could spark a remarkable run all the way to a National Championship. I'm sure the football team has an "Us against the world" mentality (entirely justified too) going on right now. I see this team absolutely refusing to lose when it's all said and done.

Notes from Ohio State's practice
April, 5, 2011
By Adam Rittenberg

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- I had a chance to watch about 30 minutes of Ohio State's full-pads workout indoors Tuesday. Despite the limited media viewing period, there was a lot to observe in an extremely physical Buckeyes practice.

* Kenny Guiton stood out to me among the quarterbacks. He put some nice zip on the ball in both individual and team drills, and he showed good mobility. Before team drills, Guiton worked in a group with Braxton Miller and Taylor Graham. Terrelle Pryor, wearing a yellow no-contact jersey, threw a few passes with a separate group. Pryor didn't do much with his footwork as he's recovering from clean-up surgery on his foot Monday.
* Miller definitely has mobility and created extra room for himself on a check down to Adam Homan. He followed it up with a nice throw to receiver Ryan Ross.
* Expect Ohio State's running backs to be more involved in the pass game this year. During one period, the offense lined up solely with running backs or tight ends out wide, and several backs looked good catching the ball. Rod Smith, who generated hype during bowl practice, beat linebacker Andrew Sweat for a catch during a goal line drill. Carlos Hyde delivered a nice hit on a defender after a reception. There's some really nice versatility in both size and style among the Buckeyes' backs. I don't think they'll miss Dan Herron too much during the first five games, but we'll see.

I have a couple of questions, guys:

1. Is your spring game going to be televised on the Big Ten Network? Unfortunately, our hall of fame head coach/AD decided to NOT have the game televised on tBTN, and I'm anxious to see some GOOD football teams in the spring (watched Texas' train wreck of a spring game).

2. The suspended players - is their suspension is only for regular games, or are they suspended for the spring game as well?

Please forgive me if these were asked/covered already.

Thanks

It was televised last year (BTN). Not sure if they'll do it again this year, but I have to believe so.

I also read somewhere that it wouldn't be a full Scarlet vs. Grey game since there aren't enough O lineman to split up. They will probably just go Offense vs. Defense and not have two full teams.
