Hey, hey, where you been? But God talk is about to begin. Hey, hey, hey, come on in.

Welcome back to Buckeye. Talk, Stephen Means, Nathan Baird, Andrew Gillis, and this is a

text or a different pod, sign up for the text 614-350-335-15. We're eight games into the season

with a month left in the regular season, and just wanting to get a gauge from the fan base

about how they feel about starting quarterback Carmichael. He's eight know. He's got 2,163

pretty consistently been in like a B minus C plus situation with Kyle, and I think

recent C bias would maybe push that towards C plus, but I think the totality of everything

through eight games would probably still fall in a B minus B situation. It's just a

matter of, I think the story for him is though not the totality, it's the trend, and then

the trend gets complicated by how much he might or might not be badly in injury, or playing

through pain, I guess, playing through a situation right now. So I would still say, I mean, I think
