Urban Meyer is starting to garner a headache.
With a big QB decision to make in Columbus, Ohio, I would have one too! Meyer has 3 of the best QB's in the nation on his roster, each one stepping up and making amazing things happen while on the field.
ESPN reported that Meyer was deeply contemplating the situation. "That's the only thing that's starting to eat away at me a little bit," Meyer said Tuesday. "It didn't for a while because you're just so busy. But now that I'm seeing what I'm seeing, I have such great respect for all three guys."
The 3 candidates for the 2015 starting job are redshirt senior Braxton Miller, a 2 time Heisman trophy candidate, 2014 Heisman trophy candidate JT Barrett, and the man who filled in for Barrett while he was injured through the 3 biggest games of the Ohio State season Cardale Jones.
Yes, just with the resume's, Meyer's headache is understandable.
"Everything is positive," Meyer said. "Talent, quality people, value to the program, investment in the program? Check, check, check, check. The only negative is two people are going to have to watch."
Miller suffered a season ending shoulder injury during Summer camp last season and isn't quite throwing in practice. Barrett, who suffered a fractured ankle, is playing in mini field and 7-on-7 drills, while Jones is taking first team snaps.
Meyer may still move Miller to a different position, to help his NFL stock, while he allows Barrett and Jones to fight out the starting job.
A lot of drama and media attention will be on Ohio State this summer, and a lot of expectations must be lived up to.
