Ohio State football | Barrett, Miller among six team captains; Jones isn't

Those looking for a clue about the state of the Ohio State’s quarterback competition might find it in the selection of the Buckeyes’ 2015 captains.

Redshirt sophomore J.T. Barrett was named one of six Buckeye captains, along with offensive linemen Jacoby Boren and Taylor Decker, hybrid/receiver Braxton Miller, linebacker Joshua Perry and safety Tyvis Powell.

“Proud to announce the Captains of the 2015 Buckeyes,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer tweeted early this evening. “Incredible honor!”
