Ohio State’s quarterback competition will continue into preseason camp with five scholarship quarterbacks still on the roster, but Ryan Day hopes to have a starting quarterback chosen before the season begins.
During an appearance on 97.1 The Fan’s Bishop and Friends on Wednesday morning, Day said he would like to avoid a repeat of last year, when the competition between Kyle McCord and Devin Brown continued through the first two games of the season before McCord was named the starting quarterback. While Ohio State could theoretically have time to work through the quarterback competition in its first few games again, as the Buckeyes begin the season with three non-conference games against Akron, Western Michigan and Marshall, Day would prefer to name a starting quarterback before the season begins.
