TE Jeff Heuerman: "He's a great leader. He's super smart, he's a hard worker.
Everyone looked up to him even before this (Braxton Miller injury) even happened," said. "He handles his business and does everything right. We have full confidence and trust in him."
To illustrate the problems that a player in his first collegiate game can encounter, Urban Meyer told a story about Alex Smith, who stumbled in his debut under Meyer at Utah in 2003.
"I'll never forget Alex Smith couldn't say the first play when I put him in against Utah State in the fourth quarter," said Meyer, with a grin. "We were winning. We called the play and I said, `Alex, say that play back to me.' He couldn't say the play. I thought, I wonder if this guy will ever be any good."
Smith became a No. 1 draft pick and solid NFL quarterback.
Urban Meyer: J.T. Barrett is a great leader, very smart and a hard worker
