Ohio State has had some fantastic quarterbacks in the last 25 years. Ranking them is no easy task. The most important criterion for any athlete in sports is winning. The next is the overall impact they have on their team or sport, and there’s no sport where that is more important than college football.
A big way of measuring that impact is by seeing how the team and Buckeye quarterbacks did after a particular player’s success. Individual stats and records often overexaggerate a player’s greatness. While they are important and fun, they are well behind winning and impact.
