Ohio State head coach Ryan Day speaks during an NCAA college football news conference at the Big Ten Conference media days at Lucas Oil Stadium, Tuesday, July 23, 2024, in Indianapolis. Ohio State coach Ryan Day on Thursday announced that Kansas State transfer Will Howard will be the starting quarterback when the Buckeyes open the season at home against Akron on Aug. 31.With two weeks still left in the preseason, Howard will take over the No. 1 reps for the remaining practices.
Day also referenced Howard's weight loss -- almost 20 pounds since the end of last season -- which makes him more dangerous with both his feet and his arm. The coach added that all of the quarterbacks have dual-threat ability.Last year, Day appeared frustrated in multiple post-workout news conferences as neither Kyle McCord nor Brown had established himself as QB1.
This year's quarterback group is probably one of the deepest in the country. Alabama transfer Julian Sayin, second-year man Lincoln Kienholz and prized freshman Air Noland will compete for mop-up reps.
