Julian Sayin Developing Vocal Leadership, Being Named an Iron Buckeye the “Biggest Honor in the Program” For Lincoln Kienholz

Ohio State's quarterback competition is the storyline of preseason camp, though the Buckeyes' quarterback coach and quarterbacks weren't doing much storytelling about it on Tuesday.

No hints were given about who is leading between redshirt sophomore Lincoln Kienholz and redshirt freshman Julian Sayin. But quarterbacks coach Billy Fessler, Sayin and Kienholz all said that the duo is taking lessons from the other's game and using it to boost the quality of their play.

Fessler also pointed to consistency as the main trait that will separate one QB from the other in their battle. Sayin is keeping things "all about ball" and staying off social media, while Kienholz said being named an Iron Buckeye is the "biggest honor in the program" and meant a lot to him.
