He needs to win the National Championship now or he is toast. Very least make the game. Chip Kelly should be fired tonight. OSU has the best offensive weapons in college football. Their offense has failed in big games. Often playing too conservative. Often being too predictable. Making too many mistakes.
Ryan Day
- Thread starter ButtersHawk
- Start date
based on what exactly? winning a lot of games at Ohio St where every coach that has ever coached there did?
Maybe Day should have kept calling the plays himself, instead of bringing Kelly in. He's got a good offensive mind. He was OC for Urban and he did just fine there.
Oh oh, someone's jealous of Deion's many accomplishments at many levels.
Lets see. Day is now 66-10 at OSU. And 65-6 against teams not named UM.
Fire him and look for someone to better those numbers.
Sure.

Sure.
John cooper, Fickell…even blue bloods can be a shit show, michigan
Watching he Syracuse game I am thinking he should have stayed with McCord.
Maybe Urban Meyer's health is good again
Maybe, but McCord has also had a few stinker games this year
That's the thing at Ohio St., there is such a small number of people they could hire that would do better than Day. Urban beat Michigan every year, but he always had a clunker each year to keep them from NCG. Purdue one year, Iowa another.
I still cant believe they scrapped McCord for Howard .. lateral move at best
I honestly don’t know, what has Ryan Day done before being given the head coach job at OSU? It feels like he was born on third base and believes he’s hit a triple from a head coaching perspective.
I heard an interview from him before the game today. He said losing to Michigan last year was the worst thing that’s ever happened to him in his life (then said well maybe other than when his dad died). He was being dead serious and doubled down on it. I was like dude… get some ****n perspective!! 99.99% of people wld give anything for that to be the case.

Brosmer and Rourke played pretty damn well with lesser teams around them then Howard had....
Sure. But whats the standard at a school where you get a top 1-5 recruiting class EVERY year? I mean how does he lose to teams not in the top 5-10 teams? Again he is 3-7 against other top 5 teams, 0-4 against M in the last 4 years and zero conference titles in that time. I'm more then fine if they keep the guy, we're talking about what the OSU $$ thinks at this point....
The coach they should roll out the red carpet for is Cigs at IU. Only problem is he’s past 60 so they probably won’t get much more than 5 years out of him.
Major risk. Dude had a big year with all the transfers in his first year at a major school as HC. He had a VERY favorable schedule until OSU and they got handled pretty easily, and then 6-5 Michigan comes in and shuts down OSU. He's got more to prove to land a job like that one, IMHO.
Dang kceast, it’s like you and I share brain! I notice that on dang near every post. Scary
But totally agree. Top 5 recruiting class every year built on the school history and brand plus $20M (and growing) to buy players via transfer portal…
Frankly, comparing him against like-funded teams should be the only bar that matters with the historically unlevel playing field and annually stacked deck he gets.
That's not the point. They expect excellence at O$U. Their born on 3rd HC has a 1-3 playoff record and lost 4 straight to Michigan.
Ohio State was a 20.5 point favorite today.
They are now 10-2, won't play in the B1G title game, and essentially are the 3rd best team in the B1G.
They have spent $20M in NIL on this roster.
National Championship or bust, imo.

They are the 3rd best team in the B1G this year.

Vrabel's name has been popping up a lot lately.
And he's a native Ohioan. Why does this matter to them? Because all of their really successful coaches - especially against Michigan and winning NCs - have been Ohioans. It goes back to Woody Hayes in the early 1950s. The only 2 that have a losing record against Michigan are John Cooper (I believe from Tennessee) and Ryan Day (New England).
exactly--it is coaching no matter where you are--difference is even the bad coaches at places like OSU-MIch--ND USC---Flor--still get pretty good recruits so that when the next coach comes in he does not have to start from scratch
At IA --Minn--ISU--etc...when you get a bad coach the talent usually dips as well so a new coach has ot upgrade talent and be a good coach.
IN this day though non blue blods can acquire more talent faster like IND did--this portal thing is crazy--
and you do not need ot spend like crazy to get good athletes--Mich had a corner came from Richmond---
IA needs to really invest in on site evaluators so we can reload thru MAC and lower level players that will not break the bank....seems like it would be a good strategy.

Howard played well except in the 2 big games they had this yr, was not good yesterday and against Ore. he was decent until the end when he ran one of the worst 2 minute offense and one of the worst last plays you will see from a blue blood QB....
so he is pretty good just not big game good
Class A felony? Then if he gets fired, his path is clear . . . straight to the White House.
Yep, he gone. Needs to win the title this year to even have a shot at staying IMO.
Lolol.. So he's pretty good EXCEPT when they play teams with anywhere near the level of talent on his team? Kind of makes my point. Kid of like Day as OSUs coach...
You realize that most of your audience does not share your continual and relentless political point of view. This would be counties. Give it a rest.
I don’t
I think Kirk is a better coach than Ryan Day. I don’t think Day would win as much as Kirk has at Iowa, probably not close.
