So if Dawson tells him to get on the field, he is telling the coaches he won't play because he's transferring? I'm confused why a desire to transfer would affect a coach's decision to use him or not.
The way people are describing it it’s as if they don’t want him to risk any injury and have it affect his transfer destination.
But who wants him? He hasn’t put a lot of film on to say he has a lot of people wanting him to be the starter on a power five team. I assume after being here and redshirting he’s not gonna want to go compete for a job somewhere when that’s what he can do here.
As far as not wanting to risk injury, he can also get injured in practice.
.
If brown leaves now, he’ll be going to another place where he’s gonna compete for a spot and if he doesn’t make it, he’s stuck. They took this year to develop, not get injured, and a brand new QB competition in spring. If he doesn’t make it, he still has options.
That’s actually pretty smart on his behalf, and pretty fair from the coaching staff.
But in my opinion, the very last thing you want is for Brown to leave and end up a superstar on another team.
Ohio State doesn’t get criticized for Joe Burrow but we would get crucified if Brown ends up being an elite quarterback at another team.
