Urban Meyer hints JT Barrett leads Ohio State starting QB competition

Urban Meyer likes to conceal his plans from the media and even went as far as to deny Braxton Miller was switching positions when the story first went public. But he may have tipped his hand regarding his plans for his starting quarterback.

Meyer spoke at Big Ten Media Days on Thursday and was asked about Ohio State’s starting QB competition, which is between J.T. Barrett and Cardale Jones now that Miller is switching to H-Back. Meyer responded by saying the Buckeyes keep track of everything and have even been grading the players based on leadership displayed over the summer.
