Which one of the Ohio Qb's are most likely to become a Buckeye and which will the Bucks go after hard?
I have this gut feeling that we won't pursue Hartline as some may think.
Anyone have any thoughts on next years Qb's?
 
What I have read is that OSU will make that decision based on performance in camp. Of course, a kid like Tebow can come on down anytime he wants.

I would expect them to offer an Ohio kid at the end of camp and hold a second ship for a top drawer national guy - unless thre are two that blow their socks off in the camps.

To be quite honest, I would like us to pick up a few of the athletic, dual-threat QBs. Nate Davis would be very nice, Hakes and Schlichter as well. The only thing about Hartline is that we do have Boeckman and Schoenhoft and they seem to all be the typical drop-back QB. JMO, but after seeing what Troy did, changing up the pace would be best for us. If Davis qualifies, I say go get him. Hakes as well, who SHAKES says has run around a 4.7 forty and is getting faster. Schlichter seems like he can move around outside the pocket as well. Filling our roster with a lot one dimensional (although still very talented) QBs would not give us the flexability in the offense that Troy has.

Two QBs will give us SIX schollies tied up in QBs in 2006. That is a lot.

Further, if Smith and Zwick continue to be the fron runners the next two seasons OSU will look very attractive in 2007. That may be our best chance to pick up two studs.

Again, if you can get the studs now go for it. But we sure don't need 'bodies'.

I have heard that Schlichter may be levelling off, development wise, and that Davis may go to the school that offfers him the best opportunity for hoops. I think Hartline is the Bucks #1 target.

i agree that it will come down to camp for the ohio guys. too many names and too much talent to offer early.

rudy kirbus gets little hype but he will probably be one of the more polished passers in the state next season and certainly one of the best athletes playing qb in ohio too. he will end up at a school with a solid football program for sure.

I agree a that dual-threat qb could give our offense more options down the road. If all else fails at least we could run more QB draws and bootlegs. Schlichters uncle Art was very mobile and could throw on the run with accurracy. Maybe Miles has similar attributes. In the end it will come down to the summer camp performances. But I see no need to offer more than one QB unless someone would be willing to greyshirt.

Oh8ch - The biggest question I have is how does the QB crop look for 2007? If there really isn't anybody standing out you might seriously look at grabbing two great ones in 2006 knowing you are not going to go for one in 2007. Now if there are some great ones in the pipeline for 2007, then that would change my mind.

Piney - I would agree, but I think in 2007 it could be easier to attract interest nationally. It will be tough to do that this year with two QB who both started games last year having two years left. But I think we are saying the same thing. Take two this year if they are the kids you want - but nobody who brings any question marks.
