Both those guys are gone. No chance either comes back.

Losing Darron Lee is a big loss too but he's a first round LB in my opinion. Apple hurts a little too. Bosa is obviously a big loss as is Washington.

I think OSU has the talent to replenish the losses but the experience is going to be missed a lot.

I'm not really sold on JT being as good as QB as people say. Both him and Cardale looked average at best this year because of a trash OC and then it made you wonder if they were good QBs or if they just had a good OC. I hope there is competition next year for the starting spot instead of just handing it to JT because he's been here longer.

This essentially tells me there is no good option behind Zeek. RB by committee doesn't work too well in CFB.

Figured Marshall would stay if Thomas goes because with everyone on defense leaving plus Zeke leaving they might need to put more emphasis on the passing game so he would get more opportunities. I think Marshall can be a good NFL WR even though I don't think he'll be drafted in the first 4 rounds.

Meyer seems to like Joe Burrow. He was moved ahead of Collier on the depth chart. I don't think Gibson ever sees the field as QB beyond some wildcat.

JT will be the only guy taking any snaps that matter next year.

I've read that weber has looked great when he's been healthy in practice. He had the early season injury.

I agree with him wholeheartedly. Watching the state championship his Senior year he gave one of the most impressive performances I have ever seen throwing for 446 yards and 6 TD's in a 56-52 loss to Toledo Central Catholic. The guy was just money on every pass and is pretty damn speedy

If not for 2014 I might agree with you. The offense didn't meet my expectations until the Michigan game this year and I have no idea why.

Is Vonn Bell the only junior who still may declare?

Doubt he comes back honestly.

At worst he's a 2nd round pick. I give the guy a lot of credit for playing hard despite OSU not having much of a passing game.

0% chance Vonn Bell comes back. I'm sure an announcement will come tomorrow.

Vonn Bell hasn't attended a class since Braxton was still a QB...he's definitely gone girl.
