All-Time OSU help - By Decade
« on: February 12, 2021, 01:47:51 AM »
I only get 3 all-time Buckeye QBs:
J.T. Barrett
Bobby Hoying
Troy Smith
.
or maybe Rex Kern or Cornelius Greene?  Who needs to make the team and won't hinder it with really poor passing stats?

or maybe Rex Kern
Kern was before my time, but I've watched the 1969 Rose Bowl.

First, background:
That was a #1 vs #2 game back when those were rare. USC with a now forgotten (LoL) heisman trophy winner named OJ Simpson was #2 and the defending champion while tOSU was #1.

Anyway, the thing that amazed me about Kern wasn't his passing, it was his ball fake ability. It was astonishing. USC's defenders and the camera operators were usually utterly clueless as to which Buckeye would emerge from the backfield with the ball.

I'm sure that doesn't help your stats but it was amazing to watch

Art Schlichter was Ohio State's starting quarterback from 1978 to 1981 and was a first-round pick in the 1982 NFL draft.

I bet he was a great player.

Get it?

So if you Bucks opened an all-time greats set of cards, which 3 QBs would you anticipate seeing?  Which would you hate to not see?

I would think Haskins, Smith, and either Hoying or Schlichter.

Thanks.
So being a starter for only 1 season isn't an issue?

It would be if Ohio State had more options but we really don't because for so much of our history throwing the ball was so rare.

I was literally going to put that as the first post, but I didn't want to get off on the wrong foot, lol.

Maybe I'll do this - post the roster I put together and have you guys suggest edits?  Let's try it with OSU.
QB (3):  Haskins, T.Smith, Schlichter
RB (4):  Griffin, George, Elliott, Cassady (Dobbins?)
WR (5):  Glenn, C.Carter, Boston, G.Williams, Holmes (Galloway?  Warfield?  Jenkins?)
TE (1):  John Frank (Dudley?  Anders?  Jankowski?)
Sacks (4 or 5):  Vrabel, Simmons, J.Bosa, Finkes, W.Smith
Int (4 or 5):  Tatum, Winfield, Springs, Sensibaugh, Bruney
K (1):  Mike Nugent
P (1):  Tom Tupa
KR (1):  Tom Barrington
PR (1):  Ginn Jr
.
How's that?  Pick it apart IF you have someone better to plug in.

If you think someone should be included, you have to say who you'd pull out.
