Arthur Smith is a fucking moron. I would rather have Parker Flemming back at special teams. Fuck, I'd rather have him as OC. I'd rather have Joe Bauserman at QB. I'd rather have Urban's bff coaching LBs again. This is an absolutely collosal mistake. For Jeremiah's last season? What a massive disappointment. This ruined my weekend.

Just sayin': This looks like a one woman Atlanta Falcons version of SEC Shorts......

I’m just happy it’s someone with experience who can run their side of the ball. Hartline wasn’t bad, but had limited experience and arguably vision. Also, Smith is unlikely to take a college HC job, so won’t leave at the worst time.

Those silver pants are beautiful

Anyone know anything about him?

13 personnel will be our light package.

Hopefully it was Tomlin that was holding the Steelers offense back, his last 4 coordinators have all been mediocre and consistently used ultra-conservative game plans.

I agree, but are you referring to something specific?

At least this guy is wasting away on their bench.

(I’ll ignore that at least he’s on winning team. Screw him.)

Just sayin': Yeah, his best year is still his Sophomore season at Ohio State; he's actually regressed at scUM.....

Season Averages

I am looking at it like this:

-Day’s playbook.
-Will call plays so Day can be CEO again.
-Not likely to leave five days before conference title game.
-May be run heavy but let’s not pretend he didn’t have WR’s put up good numbers even with the shitty QB’s he was saddled with in the NFL.
-To the run heavy thing…I’d be happy to see some tweaks to OSU’s run game especially in the redzone and I’m thinking so is Day.

Lastly, Day gets the benefit of the doubt from me. And I’m hardcore Lunatic Fringe. But one area Day has owned is coaching hires.

At least you'd think this makes Day let go of his stranglehold on the offense.

Are you fucking serious? This is horrendous.

Ohio State football program may have wasted a boatload of NIL money on this transfer

Based on reports coming out of training camp, the Buckeyes may have paid a lot of money to land a very expensive third-string player.

scarletandgame.com

Ohio State paid over $1 million to bring in Ethan Onianwa from Rice. He was expected to be the starting left tackle this season after Ohio State lost four starters on the offensive line.

Just sayin': Obviously not all transfer portal pick ups work out. I'll say unless he really stands out at the Senior Bowl he may not even be drafted in the 2026 NFL draft; however, I did find one mock drat that lists him as a 7th rounder:

I made a joke about him designing a flea flicker to the 4th tackle lined up as tightend I feel responsible lol.

The only "bingo" needed saying.

Patricia was a bad head coach but a Brilliant DC. We've got the best WR in the country, not close, and a QB who may be thee best as a Sophomore with the best WR in High School coming in, and hire a guy that can't keep a WR or QB? He will have to pull a180 for me to be in favor. I guess anything can happen but it's not what most of us were hoping for.

Click to expand...

It's not his job to keep the WR or QBs - that'll be on Day. I'm ok with that.

Day is winning at an 88% clip and has a title plus is in title contention every year. Until that changes, he gets put who he wants on the coaching staff.

Hot dang

This is what we’ve been waiting for?
