Was prompted to look up these names after Ronnie Bell was mentioned during the Ga State game tonight. In 2011 Ohio went into camp with 4 QBs on the roster vying for the starting job. 3 years later, where are they now? Here's what I found with a quick Google search-

(RS)Sr Phil Bates- Bates lost out on the QB1 roll and was asked/forced to move to WR to get playing time. It seems to have worked out for him as he is entering his 3rd year as a member of the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks.

(RS) So Tyler Tettleton- won the starting position and broke every QB record at Ohio. The rest, as they say...

(RS) Fr Kyle Snyder- back up QB looking at a team with a starting QB for the next 3 years. Snyder announced he was transferring after the Potato Bowl. Transferred to SEMO and was eligible to play immediately. Expected to be the starting QB in 2012 but tore his ACL in fall camp and missed the entire season. Played in 7 games and started 4 in 2013, was 49/105 with 6TDs and 4INTs. Snyder beat out Alex Niznak, who transferred this spring after 3 seasons with CMU, for the starting spot this season.

Fr Derrius Vick- took a redshirt in 2011 and after two seasons as backup is set to start for Ohio in 2014.

Fr Ronnie Bell- took a redshirt in 2011 and announced he was transferring immediately following the regular season. Transferred to tGa State, played in 7 games and started 2 in 2012. Started every game in 2013 and set single season school record with 2,573 passing yds. Lost starting position in 2014.

Interesting, perimeterpost. It's good to know they've all done reasonably well.
