I just read where Justin Fields is making it official, he's coming to Ohio State. Martel should consider switching to slot receiver.

Saw that. Martel is saying he will be the starting QB. The one article I read also said his immediate transfer may be approved because some baseball player made a racial slur toward him. Sounds like a stretch as a reason, but I'll take it.

In the limited action that I've seen of Martel, he's an exciting runner, but didn't show me much as a passing QB. I completely get that Fields can also run like an NFL RB, but the last thing that OSU needs is to go back to being one dimensional with the non-stop RPO. Besides, they have way too much talent at the skill positions to go that route.

Be nice if he can run like JT and throw like Dwayne

To be fair, it seemed rare that he was asked to pass when he was on the field.

There was one game where Martel did ok passing I forget who against ? The rest of the time he hasn't looked at ease at all.
