Braxton switching to wide receiver

[fishinabarrel]

They might have to start handing it off on the jet sweep instead of tossing it forward. Give Braxton the option to throw on it!

I'm sure it's in Urbs playbook. I wonder if Tom Herman wants to come back with this offense?

From the Columbus Dispatch:

“For the most part, it’s going to be H-Back and punt return,” Miller told Sports Illustrated. “It’s a long process to get back totally to throwing and throwing every day. This is the smarter thing for right now, God blessed me with a lot of talent and different opportunities. I’m going to have fun with that and still score a lot of touchdowns and help the team out and be dominant at that.”

That says to me that he can't throw enough to make it as a QB.

Agree. Any word on Dontrel Wilson?

JT Barrett/Cardale Jones
Braxton Miller
Ezekiel Elliott
Jalin Marshall
Mike Thomas

All on the field at the same time.

Everyone else is sincerely fucked.

Bud, do you think otherwise?

Information on injuries is kept under close wraps. I got the impression from the Dispatch article that Urban wasn't too pleased about this info on Braxton getting out. Whether Wilson is okay is probably going to be a guarded secret up to the VT game.

"Coach Urban Meyer told The Dispatch, however, that a final decision has not yet been made.

"I haven't made those decisions yet," Meyer told The Dispatch. "It's a little bit jumping the gun here. Braxton came to see me. He's been talking to me about it (the switch). We've been working at it, but I'm not ready to say exactly how we're going to use him yet.""

Just when the offense was already explosive. Great move on his part for his future.
There isnt enough players on the field for this offense. Crazy, just crazy

He should just wait until Wilson is fully healthy. This offense is already crazy good without him. Jalin and now Brax.

And a piss-weak set of opponents. Should be a good season in Buckeyeland!

11 Warriors servers got blasted twice today
Bosa and Braxton melted them down

Hello, Braxton, young man. Do you like sunny skies, beautiful co-eds, and great live music? :: handshake ::

Is that a confession of what Texas does?

Win or lose its always good to be a Buckeye.

GO BUCKEYES!!!

 

[tducey]

Interesting, think this makes perfect sense for his football future though.

 

[Tharvot]

Could have a backfield of Cardale/JT with Zeke Elliott on one side and Braxton on the other. Read option...good luck.

That's going to be filthy.

Denard Robinson comes to mind, who was actually a pretty productive playmaker for Jacksonville last year and he made the transition after college. By Miller doing this now this gives him a year to learn a new position before he gets to the big dance and if he succeeds will most likely improve his draft position in the process. Smart move, considering the QB situation is very touchy at Ohio State. With the talent there, one bad game and you're probably not gonna be the starter anymore.

Why Tim Tebow never came to the same conclusion, we'll never know.

Not that familiar with Miller, I know he's fast for a QB, but is he fast enough for a WR. My concern (as mentioned by others) is whether his shoulder issues translates to success as a WR.
