No Frontrunner in Ohio State Quarterback Competition Yet As Staff Begins to Analyze Statistics of Justin Fields, Matthew Baldwin

If Ryan Day is close to naming Ohio State's starting quarterback, he's publicly remaining mum.

When asked on Monday if there was any separation in the competition between Justin Fields and Matthew Baldwin, Day said no. He wasn't even committal whether he plans to name a starter or, at least, a leader at quarterback by the end of spring practice in less than two weeks.

"In terms of who's ahead of who, I don't know, we'll see," Day said. "We'll see how it shakes out."

Day has kept the majority of conversations about the starting quarterback job private after declaring there would be a "battle" between Fields and Baldwin to win the job.
