2024 tOSU Offense Discussion

Im hearing that it’s much closer to being Bill O’Brien. Has all the same credentials(but he’s actually had success as opposed to Kingsbury)
Truly only perk I would say Kingsbury would have over O'Brien is his youth/potential recruiting being younger. In the college ranks O'Brien to my knowledge doesn't have that QB or player be can say I developed that.

If Day wants a HC on the offense, then Kingsbury wouldn't be better than BoB, IMO. BoB is the equivalent of Knowles on offense. He doesn't need to recruit, just paint a vision of the offense to recruits, just like Knowles. And its worked out pretty well for the defensive recruiting.

I swear if I see one more person anywhere post this stupid graph to "prove" Howard is "actually a downgrade from McCord!"

NFL teams better re-arrange their draft boards because both McCord and JOE MILTON are better than Caleb Williams and Drake May according to this!


I would have to see their definition of "catchable". The reason McCord had catchable throws is because his receivers were so good. There were so many throws early in the year that were behind the receiver and they had to turn their body to make the catch.

Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but I did not want to bog down any of QB threads (Noland and Sayin).

Assuming we end up with both of them and they head into competition, how does the fact one is a lefty and the other a righty impact evaluating them? I'm just thinking "catchability" of passes from lefties vs righties, line protection, etc.

Could be a stupid question, but just curious what some of the bigger evaluator brains on the site have to add. Again, good problem to have if we do have both of these top QB recruits.

That's a good question and I'm sure someone here would have a better answer. I seem to remember Cooper had a year with a left and righty when he chose to play 2 QBs. Maybe Bellisari and Moherman? I thought it was earlier than that, though. Anyway, I remember that question being asked - whether there's an adjustment the receivers have to make about the spin on the ball. I think the answer was that yes, there's an adjustment to be made, but that practice should handle it. I have trouble believing, though, that the receiver includes "who is throwing this pass?" as one of his thoughts while turning to watch the ball come to him. And I would guess that the righty vs lefty affects the defensive line scheme more than it does the blocking scheme. But, again, someone else probably has a thought.

I don't recall Alabama had to change much when they benched Jalen Hurts for Tua Taglia-sorryIforgethisname.
