Tajh Boyd (official thread)

Never saw this coming but I love this move by the staff...

Me neither...this one's come out of nowhere. I see a lot of similarities between him and a young Troy Smith.

More than anything we have a couple quarterbacks to consider, i.e., Newsome & Boyd....I'm gonna be happy with either one. We desperately need to take one in this class. Then leave it to our coaching staff to make them top notch college QBs.

I would love to land Boyd, but are we "reaching" with this one?

Boyd would be a great pick up, but why would someone like Boyd come here knowing that he's not our guy, nor will he be our guy for at least another 2 years? Boyd could go anywhere and really challenge for a starting spot as a Freshman.

I'm all for getting this kid, dont get me wrong, but I can't see us pulling this off...

Because the vast majority of QBs don't get a sniff of pt during their first year anyway?

Maybe he sees something special building in C-Bus and wants to be a part of it. Realistically, he could RS, sit another year behind TP, then take over in year three as a RS-Soph...much like TS did.

Unsubstantiated rumor that Kiffin may try to bring USC verbal QB Matt Barkley (#1 overall recruit) to Rocky Top.

It seems like this is the only place I'm reading that he has any interest at all in Ohio State (or the only place that even mentions Ohio State on a list of schools). Who is off base?
The original article was written by a regional scout writer, not by anyone linked to OSU. This also just hit the recruiting sites so it won't be everywhere already.

No but this line is...

He could go very few places and really challenge for a starting spot as a true freshman. Not even Pryor was capable of doing that, Boeckman had to lose the spot. That change was about Todd (and his protection) much more than Pryor, who has been exciting but limited. It is very rare for a true freshman to do anything but struggle, especially when asked to start.

I wish Terrelle threw like Tajh does. Terrelle puts a little too much air under the ball.

Impressive film. Not much to criticize at all. He might not be able to wear #10 at tOSU, but few places in the country could give him the opportunity he has here in Columbus.

This is going to sound silly, but he cocks his arm to deliver the ball the same way Troy does.
