The Ohio State football team has five quarterbacks who are all fighting for playing time. All of them think they should play, as they should. The Buckeyes are a team of guys who all think they are the best. It's part of what makes the team so good. The quarterback situation is unique though.

Because they have all of those quarterbacks, rumors have been popping up about some quarterbacks transferring. Only one can play at a given time. Recently, there was a rumor floating around about Air Noland being away from the Ohio State football program.

The original source who reported that was the case ended up being wrong as a post from Ohio State on social media showed that Noland was still in Columbus. Recently, Noland's dad had to address the false rumors about his son by appearing on the Juck on Bucks podcast. Take a look at the clip below.

As you can see, there is nothing wrong with Noland. He's in Columbus, with his teammates and is trying to get better every single day. He's not in Georgia away from the program. His dad just let everyone know that he was a little homesick after first getting to Columbus.

That's totally fair. I was homesick for the first two weeks I went to Ohio State as well. It's completely understandable for a kid who is coming from out of state to be homesick at first. It's something that I'm sure he'll get over soon if he isn't already over it.

I'm sure it's frustrating for Noland to even have this rumor floating around. As you saw in the clip above, his dad had to tell him to stay off social media to not see all of the stuff floating around. Hopefully, he can put this past him and keep working towards what looks to be a very bright future.
