Welcome to the exciting world of college football, where the competition is fierce, and the stakes are high. In a recent announcement, Coach Ryan Day revealed that Will Howard will be the starting quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes when they face off against Akron on August 31.
Howard, a transfer from Kansas State, brings a wealth of experience to the team, having started 28 games over four seasons. His impressive performance during nearly 30 practices over the spring and preseason earned him the top spot on the depth chart.
Despite Howard securing the starting position, the competition remains fierce for the backup role. With names like Lincoln Kienholz, Julian Sayin, and Air Noland in the mix, the Buckeyes are ensuring that every player earns their spot on the team.
Coach Day expressed his confidence in Howard, praising his leadership, improved physical condition, and deep understanding of the offensive system. Howard’s track record at Kansas State, including leading them to the Big 12 championship, speaks volumes about his talent and capabilities.
On the flip side, Devin Brown, the No. 2 quarterback, continues to showcase his skills and versatility. Coach Day emphasized the importance of consistency and ball security for Brown to maximize his potential and contribute effectively to the team.
As the Ohio State Buckeyes gear up for the upcoming season, all eyes will be on Will Howard as he leads the charge on the field. Stay tuned for more thrilling updates from the world of college football!
