COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Lincoln Kienholz won’t be Ohio State’s next starting quarterback, but the idea of what he represents is still a glowing success.

Ryan Day believes Ohio State will still need Lincoln Keinholz despite naming Julian Sayin the starting quarterback.

Ryan Day sees parallels to Joe Burrow and Dwayne Haskins and their 2018 quarterback competition in the skill sets of Lincoln Kienholz and Julian Sayin.

When Ryan Day announced Monday that Julian Sayin will be Ohio State’s starting quarterback in its opener against Texas on Aug. 30, he portrayed the competition between Lincoln Kienholz and Sayin for the No.

Former five-star QB Julian Sayin, who transferred from Alabama to Ohio State, will start in Week 1. Michael Cohen explains how this highlights the sport's unyielding pressure to win now.

Drake Lindsey will be Minnesota's QB1 this season with zero previous starting experience, but his first two road games will be against programs facing a similar situation.

Lincoln Kienholz was a do-everything athlete in South Dakota, fostering a competitiveness that prepared him for a high-profile quarterback battle.
