Remember this?
Course you do, it's hard to forget.
J.T. Barrett — Ohio State's redshirt freshman quarterback who was rushed into operations by his coaches less than two weeks before the season opener following Braxton Miller's second shoulder injury in eight months — breaking his ankle again Michigan. The guy who slumped along with the rest of his teammates in a Week 2 loss to Virginia Tech, yet revitalized the Buckeyes and morphed into a Heisman Trophy contender before suffering the season-ending injury in his team's 42-28 victory against its archrival.
The injury was brutal to watch, yes, one that couldn't have been helped.
