Quarterback decision difficult, but Ward was right choice

When Herman was announced as head coach last December, questions floating around weren’t just what he could do with the team, but what he could do with quarterback Greg Ward, Jr.

“From the things that Coach Herman has done with the three quarterbacks at Ohio State, I knew he could push me to a limit I have never been pushed to,” Ward said.

With his first win under his belt, Tom Herman started a new era in Cougar football and it’s in full effect off of the Cougars’ 52-24 blowout against the Golden Eagles.

“We’ve been working nine months for this, so the first one is extremely gratifying,” Herman said.
