Bud Elliott on the Cover 3 podcast somewhat blamed Milroe as well a while back. But it was more of he was lined up off center from the snap if I remember correctly. But when I went back and watched the all 22 view of the Rose Bowl on the botched snaps I paid attention to it looked like Milroe was directly behind him.

And the center had a cold all season.

Also, the author of the article is another bad writer trying to sound hifalutin and failing badly: "only one quarterback in which McLaughlin worked with"

I feel like there were issues snapping with Bryce Young as well but Young was able to handle it better.  

McLaughlin is a good blocker but he clearly isn't consistent snapping the ball and OSU either needs to accept that and move him elsewhere or stop trying to draw attention to the fact he sucks at it.

Wouldn't a cadence issue be more likely to result in false starts than snapping the ball in every direction except his QB's hands? If the kid's explanation was to blame someone else he'll fit right in at OSU.

We know for sure, the center got an instant upgrade of TOUGHNESS as soon as he set foot on campus.

Wait, they don’t actually do that? Uh oh…

You know, after this next season ends, and Day is fired, I think he will realize that he shouldn't have chased off McCord. He was very close to beating us and I think with home field next year they would be very tough.

He was terrible in the Rose Bowl.  Kenneth Grant and Mason Graham gave him issues he couldn't manage.  How they were not 5 stars, based on how good they were from the start, is a mystery to me.  They both have long term NFL potential and are going to be so much fun to watch this year.

Exactly what cadence would force you to squib the ball on the ground in the vicinity of the QB? Godzilla's roar? Who cares what the Buckeye interim running backs coach thinks anyway?

Damn these Ohio people don’t take accountability for anything. Just say he can’t snap two in a row straight. Anyone who watched the Rose Bowl knows
