As for how this impacts TP's playing time, I don't really think it changes a whole lot. It's looked like JB passed him this spring and TP was gonna see the field no matter what. I don't think Henton would see action over TP, particularly with the staff presumably designing packages to get him on the field.

On Henton: Its one thing to battle a QB for a starting job. Its a drastically different task to battle a pocket passer (Bauserman) and the nations most hyped recruit that plays ball the exact same way as his self.
TP playing time: It certainly changes TP playing time. He is assured to be the one called on 80% of the time when needing a trick play from the QB - ala Ted Ginn in the Outback Bowl. We all know that Tressel would have been used him, but he would have held back so that he can use his senior ranking QB (Henton) first. Tressel is all about upperclassmen coming in first - if plausible and possible.
