After a lot of speculation and hope by Ohio State football fans, media, and others, quarterback C.J. Stroud has made the decision to enter his name into the 2023 NFL draft.

His departure will no doubt now result in reflection and a focus on where the program will go from here when replacing so much production under center. No doubt the pressure is on, as Kyle McCord and Devin Brown are now on the clock.
