If you’ve been waiting for a certain shoe to drop, according to an Ohio State site, it’s a-happening.
Former 5-star quarterback Justin Fields will be transferring to Ohio State.
Multiple sources confirmed the plans to Lettermen Row on Friday morning, indicating Fields is expected on campus with the Buckeyes later in the afternoon and set to move in this weekend ahead of the resumption of classes, clearing the way for him to participate in the offseason program and spring practice.
Vaya con Dios, Justin. Hope you enjoyed New Orleans.

Martell’s got a head start on the playbook, but I haven’t seen anything from his garbage time tape to suggest his arms (or his legs) are comparable to what Fields brings to the table. Throw in the fact that he’s undersized (a generous 5’11”) and I’d think Fields has every bit a chance to beat him out.
Unlike Georgia’s pro-style offense, Ohio State’s spread/read option approach is more similar to what Fields ran in high school and probably better suited to his skill set.

Which makes a transfer to OSU stunningly stupid to me. Martell was in the same class as Fromm.

If by “playing the race card” you mean that he was called a racial slur while at Georgia
LikeLike
Called a racial slur from the stands which was later reported by the AJC via a facebook group. A report which saw the perpetrator swiftly shunned and shown the door by administration.
Of course its in fact a bullshit excuse but playing that card is brilliant because no one will oppose it even though it isn’t founded at an institutional level. However, I guess Ohio could be the utopia where racism doesn’t exist and drunk football spectators don’t make stupid ass comments.
If that is the route his lawyer takes and is successful in getting a pass from the NCAA, the irony will be that he is in reality transferring for playing time and the racial slur was used as part of a poorly worded demand to play him instead of Fromm.

Here’s the latest on the appeal:
“Fields’ appeal for immediate eligibility is expected to center on racial slurs that were directed at him by a former Georgia baseball player, who was subsequently dismissed from the team. Fields, who was considered a professional baseball prospect in high school and a potential player in college, would feel uncomfortable joining the Georgia baseball team after that incident, sources said.”

I actually wonder if immediate eligibility couldn’t hurt Fields more than possibly help. Martell has a 2 year headstart, if Fields doesn’t beat him out this Fall, he’s essentially wasted another year plus the chances of beating out Martell decrease unless he’s injured or leaves early. Let’s not forget OSU track record of NFL QBs is anything less than impressive in recent years (JT Barrett, Tyrelle Pryor, Braxton Miller, Cardale Jones), so find it hard to believe he’ll be better prepared for the big show in that system unless he wants to play WR;-) I wish him all the best and think his departure will reduce the level of locker room drama (for UGA at least) on next year’s team.

I don’t think that’s a fair picture of Fromm, but it’s one that has taken root in a lot of people’s minds. They think that UGA is built to be QB’ed by a string of Jake Cokers.

Jake’s accuracy and efficiency ratings say, “He sure is,” but QB drafting in the NFL can be… weird. They love potential, which can rocket a quasi-mobile, rocket-armed guy like Josh Allen into the Top 5 – because NFL front office people can imagine how awesome he would be if he just played the position more effectively (lol that’s not the primary metric to begin with). They love “Next version of…,” which allows them to look at a guy like Tua and see Russell Wilson.

In Fields’ defense, he committed when Fromm and Eason were both still on the roster. He came into this situation fully aware the job wasn’t going to be handed to him.
If anything, I’d guess that Fromm taking over from the incumbent starter (and a 5-star, #1 overall QB) would lead someone to think that the coaching staff makes roster decisions based on the player that gives them the best opportunity to win a game and not “who has been here the longest?” If you’re a kid that’s confident in your abilities, I can’t fault you for thinking you could win the job.

I don’t give a damn whether you agree with me. I wasn’t posting my thoughts in the hope of convincing you to think likewise.
I know I’m probably in the minority on this, but I don’t think the coaching staff “mismanaged” this situation at all. I think they knew exactly what they were doing, taking a calculated risk on possibly losing him if it meant teaching him an important lesson about being a team-first player. In other words, I suspect they limited his playing time this season for more reasons than mere readiness. I think they were sending a message, basically: you prove to us that you’re the kind of player who cares about nothing more than Georgia winning, or else enjoy the view from the sidelines. And judging by everything I’ve heard about Fields, his family, etc., not to mention the events of the past few weeks, it sounds the message was received … and rejected. You can act like the Columbia incident was some fluke, but I think it’s stupid to think he only exhibited that attitude that one night. You really don’t think the coaches picked up on the same pouty sense of entitlement at any practice, or any film session, at any point during the season? Please.
Suffice it to say: I think Fields has found the perfect fit for his personality at Ohio State. He’d also fit in very well at places like Auburn and Florida — though, selfishly, I’m glad he left the conference. There’s no denying he’s ridiculously talented.

There’s also a lot of hyperbole on here concerning what people are actually saying. I don’t think anyone, or at least only a very few are saying that Fields cost Georgia that game…although it was maybe a contributing factor.
And just because you declare the Sugar Bowl to be “an utterly meaningless bowl game” doesn’t make it one. It’s worth millions to the New Orleans economy and they were gracious enough to host Georgia and expect Georgia to show up and deliver a good effort. That’s called “honoring a commitment”, which to a lot of people is still essential.
Losing in that fashion will give pollsters an excuse to place Georgia further back which will mean less wiggle room for a slip-up (and there will likely be one) in ’19. So it matters there too.
Most of us also wish him luck. But he made a poor decision which is indicative of a sour attitude, or immaturity or some other unflattering but hopefully temporary quality. He should have bowed his back and stuck with Georgia..for his own sake. Now he has to deal with an arrogant competitor that will likely make him long for the camaraderie of BM.
