Ohio State begins spring practice with quarterback competition

Ohio State began spring practice on Monday, focusing on preparations for the upcoming season after winning the national championship. The first session was light, with no tackling, as coaches worked on installing new strategies. The quarterback room now includes three players: freshman Tavien St. Clair and returnees Julian Sayin and Lincoln Kienholz. Sayin primarily worked with the starters, while Kienholz rotated in. The competition for the starting job will develop over time. On the offensive line, Ohio State is replacing key players and has added transfers Phillip Daniels and Ethan Onianwa. However, they started practice on the second team. Linebacker CJ Hicks has moved to defensive line and is competing for playing time. Freshmen Quincy Porter and Devin Sanchez also showed promise during practice.
