A 5-star recruit coming out of high school, Kienholz battled during the summer for the Buckeyes’ starting QB spot before ultimately losing out to Heisman finalist Julian Sayin. In three years at OSU, Lincoln Kienholz threw for 250 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for 68 yards and two more scores.

A multi-sport star in high school, Kienholz is known for his high-level athleticism and his touch as a passer.

He’ll also do this from time-to-time:

We’ve seen 5-star backups at blue-blood programs transfer elsewhere and become stars. Hell, the guys Kienholz lost the job to at OSU was a ‘Bama transfer.

I’m good with this.

Now let’s use the money we’re saving by not going after Josh Hoover, Dylan Raiola, etc. on convincing some more guys to come back (hey, Isaac), investing in the trenches like never before, and bringing in a couple more high-level playmakers.

Let’s work, Lincoln.
