The Ohio State QB Situation is CHANGING: 3 Portal Targets You Need to Know
Ohio State football could face a major 2027 quarterback decision if Julian Sayin leaves. Could Ryan Day find a transfer portal QB at Big Ten rivals Maryland or Minnesota? We examine Malik Washington, Drake Lindsey, and Pitt's Mason Heintschel.
With Julian Sayin's future uncertain, Ohio State may need to evaluate its quarterback options beyond Luke Fahey and Tavien St. Clair.
On The Big Ten Huddle, JR breaks down three intriguing possibilities:
- Drake Lindsey (Minnesota): A big, experienced Big Ten quarterback with NFL potential.
- Mason Heintschel (Pitt): The Ohio native with tremendous upside, but serious injury concerns.
- Malik Washington (Maryland): The talented young quarterback whose future could be affected by Mike Locksley's departure.
Which quarterback fits Ryan Day's offense best? Could Washington be the most attractive option? And would adding a transfer quarterback threaten Ohio State's young QB room?
Plus, we discuss Ohio State's national championship outlook and what the upcoming games could reveal about the Buckeyes' future at quarterback.
Who would YOU choose to lead Ohio State in 2027?
