Because he is as good at linebacker. I will be honest. He is a damn good QB., but I don't know if he is Big Ten good for a QB. I'll give you the perfect example. Remember Jermon Jackson ? He was a TB for OSU around '93 ( and played against same opponents as South Point). He could not be stopped in HS., but when he arrived on campus at OSU., he never developed into the "star" player. I fear the same for Chris ( due to opponents he faces,.the linemen in the OVC average 195 pounds). But, by no means; read anything into this. If I had my wishes, he would be a 4 time winner of the Heisman while @ OSU. But , he is one athlete that can transform over to defense easily.
