Will it be Max or does Baldwin have a shot?

Just because you could not beat out Justin Fields doesn't mean you cannot play. People that know Baldwin from HS days say he's a good one. Max does not have a lock on the QB position and we better get recruiting QB's because it's Max and Baldwin. However, you never know, Downing could be another Bram.........no, not really, there's only 1 Bram.
I agree. I watched Baldwin in high school and know that he threw for about 250 yards against Ohio State's defense in the Spring game. I don't know if he'll be the starter or not, but Max is not a shoe in. And, that's a good thing. Competition is a great thing.

New OC or co-OC will pick the best QB for the job.

I’m 110% in favor of a complete open competition between now and next September. And that’s not a negative commentary on Max.

It’ll be really close. Like Boykin vs. Joeckel.

I agree with you, Moose. It was a competition between Tua & Hurts, and we know what happened there. If Max wins that competition, super. If Baldwin takes if from him, that’s super, as well. I just the best QB on the field, and I want the choice to be made before the season opener.
GO FROGS!

Baldwin was ranked as a 4**** pocket style QB coming out of high school.

But what good is that if you rarely have a pocket?

I'm always in favor of that. Always. No exceptions. If you haven't got a complete open competition for all positions, you aren't improving and you aren't setting yourself up for future success.

Well sure, but there are obvious exceptions to that. Let’s say Blacklock comes back.... he’s our starting DT with zero debate. Yes I understand that’s also because we have nobody better.

Oh I agree with advantages of incumbency and performance but I’d still want the next Blacklock competing like heck with him to earn more snaps. And I wouldn’t declare RB to be the starter until necessary even though there’s near zero chance he wouldn’t be.
Stupid question. Max will be so much better next season....barring an injury to Max he is the man!

Hurts will never win a Heisman, and no, me saying that doesnt mean it will. Nice try

I think he meant Burrow who transferred from tOSU because he couldn’t win the starting job - not Hurts who did the same thing but isn’t going to win the Heisman even thought he transferred to Heisman U
I meant Burrow smart ass
