He is a legitimate dual threat QB, so, yes, he is immediately the starter.
That would really piss off the Suckeyes.
I hope it happens for that reason alone.
I’ve seen a number of posts about it “sounding” like Dean is doing great (in part because he’s moved up to second string by default since the rest of our cb depth is dreadful), but go look at the links of how well Grimes is doing and watch who he is consistently torching. Poor Dean is abused and Grimes gets open by 5 plus yards on the clips where he’s covered by Dean. Imagine how bad the 3rd stringers (Burnett and crew) would look if Dean is a highlight reel and quickly stole their spots.Sounds like Dean has done very well and is one of the newbies who is living up to the billing. Might be an option at corner if we lose a starting CB. he can go at either safety or CB and likes press coverage duels.
Ackerman says Grantham has us back to "elite level" defense. Bold. Hope the fellas live up to the hype.
Says the RBs are great. Need Grimes and Jefferson, badly.
Franks's low football IQ is going to put Mullen in an uncomfortable situation: play Trask or throw Emory into the deep end.
Better keep an eye on that QB who may transfer from OSU.....

Barrow is talented, correct? Also not mentally broken? Those facts would give him a leg up on his current competition here.
Here’s the problem though. He’s not coming here. Because what’s going to happen is that Meyer will name him the starting QB. Just to keep him until the summer so he cannot transfer. He’ll then be forced to ride the bench to give Meyer depth on the team.
Idk. Meyer has said they will talk about it with Burrow and make the right decision for him. Would be kind f’d up to take his last opportunity like this just to lie to him.Here’s the problem though.

yeah, Creyer is going to be coy and string the kid out. maybe Burrow will see thru his BS and make him cardial.
Creyer’s responsible to the program first. Keeping the kid around is what is best for the program, even if it sucks for the kid. You’d hope that he would be upfront with Burrow but he wouldn’t be wrong not to.
In honor of one of our current starters at DE, Luke Ancrum, here's an article from the past. Them 2 star gems. Thanks McNuss.

Honestly, this concerns me (him being a starter)...BUT, I will give credit where credit is due for him working hard and EARNING his spot. This is a new coaching staff and they have no loyalties to anyone on the team. If he's #1, I hope he kicks ass and has a great year. Seems like he's earned it. Plus he's around 280 now and should thrive in this system.
