I voted the same way, with my reasoning about the same. Although, I am and always will be a huge fan of Hoying. That team was so talented, not beating scUM in 1995 and playing for a National Championship was one the most crushing sports moments for me personally. I never saw Rex Kern play, except for highlights, game replays, etc, so it's hard for me to give him the edge over Krenzel, but it will still tough, knowing how good he was and how impressive his career was at tOSU.

Kern was a tremendous athlete in addition to his leadership he was a tremendous ball handler, a very good runner and passer. CK was not even in my equation.

Come on BB, I thought you would tell us some stories of watching Harry Workman play for QB for The Buckeyes in '23.

Well I would but you wouldn't believe just how good he was. Yupper , My Dad used to tell me stories about him. Why one time he ran thru the whole mich team and they even had 12 players on the field at the time and he scored. twice Ahuh. He got the touchdown and was so fast he kissed a cheerleader and got a date too.  |

Then I would say you made a very good, informed selection in Kern. There really isn't a wrong answer here.
