Next up a quarterback for Ohio State: Part 3: The conclusion

How it could play out in about 8 months #GoBucks

We are finally here, the last of a three-part series looking at which candidate, [autotag]Kyle McCord[/autotag] or [autotag]Devin Brown[/autotag], has the leg up in the race to be [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag]’s quarterback in 2023.

I will reiterate I don’t believe this contest will be called early. Given the fairly easy early schedule ([autotag]Indiana[/autotag],  [autotag]Youngstown State[/autotag] and [autotag]Western Kentucky[/autotag]), this battle potentially could go into the season. If it does, [autotag]Ryan Day[/autotag] needs to make a choice before traveling to South Bend.

Part 1 of this series focused on McCord. The second focused on Brown. Now we will put that information together and handicap the race. My final takes on each of them and a prediction prior to spring practices and fall camp of what we will see in 2023 for Ohio State at quarterback.

Next up for Ohio State at quarterback, Part 1: Kyle McCord

Let’s examine McCord

In a three-part series, I am examining the strengths and weakness of both [autotag]Kyle McCord[/autotag] and [autotag]Devin Brown[/autotag] now that [autotag]C.J. Stroud[/autotag] is officially off to the NFL. While there isn’t much data on either, there is enough to handicap the race while highlighting what each does well.

Parts 1 and 2 focus on the individuals. The final part consists of my takeaways and assessment of who has the advantage heading into spring ball. The expectation is this duel will go well into fall and potentially all the way to Week 1. [autotag]Ryan Day[/autotag] has a huge choice to make.

Let’s get this started with a closer look at what Kyle McCord brings to the table. This breakdown follows watching highlights from his final year in high school (COVID-19 shortened season) and his play in 2021, the 2022 spring game and this past season.
