First Look in 2023

The spring game exhibition will be the first opportunity for fans to see quarterbacks Kyle McCord and Devin Brown compete in 2023. The two are the front-runners to replace 25-game starter C.J. Stroud, who declared for the 2023 draft after throwing for 8,123 yards and 85 touchdowns in 2021 and 2022, was a two-time Heisman Trophy finalist and who is the Big Ten record-holder in career passing efficiency at 182.39.

McCord, a 6-3, 222-pounder from Mt. Laurel, N.J., just completed his second full season with the Buckeyes. He has played in 12 games the past two years, including a start in 2021 vs. Akron when he threw for 319 yards and two touchdowns.

Brown, from Gilbert, Ariz., is a 6-3, 210-pound true freshman who played briefly in two games this season for the Buckeyes: vs. Toledo and Rutgers.

The Buckeyes also need to replace three starters on the offensive line and have to entirely overhaul their secondary, but that’s what this time of the year is all about.

While Spring practices themselves are closed to the media, I’m sure we will start to get some answers to what the 2023 Buckeyes will look like when we all get back in The ‘Shoe for the Spring game on April 15.
