Ohio State's Will Howard Named QB1 for 2024 CFB Season After Kansas State Transfer

Will Howard was named the 2024 starting quarterback for Ohio State by head coach Ryan Day on Thursday, via Brett McMurphy of Action Network.

Howard appeared in 12 games with Kansas State during his 2023 campaign before transferring to the Buckeyes on Jan. 4. He beat out Devin Brown, Ohio State's backup in 2023, as well as 5-star recruit Julian Sayin to earn the starting job.

Day told reporters on Thursday that Howard took control of the team over the past "four or five days."
