Not my job. I read this same nonsense in the Chris Holtmann thread for years. The fans don't have a great idea who to replace him with, oh ACTUALLY ohio state isn't all that accomplished historically in this sport so we should all just feel lucky we have someone running a clean program... the gap between OSU and your average cfb program is massive. There's dozens of guys in the sport who could take our massive resources and go 10-2 every year, lose to michigan every year, and lose every post season game not played during a pandemic.
Here are the options:
1.
Lanning - I'd be surprised to see him leave for another B10 school, especially with the resources they have. He's also had the same issues as Day without any of the successes.
2.
DeBoer - Knee deep in the shit at Bama trying to find his offense and putting out fires on defense.
3a.
Brian Kelly/Dabo Sweeny - I'd rather set myself on fire.
3b.
Lane Kiffin - no
3c.
Kyle Whittingham - A modern day Tressel but has lost his last 5 bowl games
4.
Lance Leipold - Was a hot name that has started the season 1-5.
5.
Fickell - A very good coach, not an improvement
6.
Marcus Freeman - I think he clearly does everything worse than Day. If he improves might be an option in a decade.
7.
A hot coordinator or an FCS coach like Jimmy Rogers - Not someone you hire expecting them to come in and immediately win a title. Tressel did it, but I wouldn't count on that happening again for OSU.
I guess you could throw Sark in there but I don't think he'd leave Texas and it's not like he's won a bunch in the CFP.
