  During his debut season with the Oregon State football program, Chance Nolan flashed dazzling athleticism and looked like he could be the Beavers' long-term answer at quarterback. But he also faced the ups and downs that most young signal callers do in the Pac-12, and struggled at times with the speed and physicality of the game. So in the three-and-a-half months since Oregon State's 2020 season finale, Nolan has worked to adapt his game from both a physical and mechanical standpoint. With one day of spring practice in the books, he and Oregon State's coaching staff are happy with the early return. "I thought he did a pretty good job in the weight room," offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren said. "Our strength guys really had the last three months with him, and he added a little bit of weight and strength. He had a little bit more zip on the ball today. In terms of durability, I think this will help him moving forward this season."

Nolan will enter the spring with a leg up in the starting quarterback competition, as last year's Week 1 starter, Tristan Gebbia, is still sidelined with a knee injury. With Gebbia out, that leaves Nolan, freshman Ben Gulbranson and incoming freshman Sam Vidlak as the only three active quarterbacks at the moment. All three had nice moments during the 7-on-7 portions of Tuesday's practice, and Lindgren pointed out that the lack of current depth under center could be a blessing in disguise. - Gazette Times
