Thursday afternoon news broke that Tate “Tathan” Martell is going to transfer from Ohio State. The redshirt freshman seemed set to be the starter at quarterback with Dwayne Haskins heading to the NFL Draft, but when Justin Fields transferred in this week, the once clear path got a little muddy. Martell tweeted before the transfer seeming like he was going to battle it out, but now even if Fields isn’t immediately eligible the four star recruit will be with another program.

We will see where Martell lands, but I thought it was about to be an intense battle? I guess not!
