2025 tOSU Offense Discussion

Re Klare: he hasn’t really blown anyone’s hair back this year. I would be kind of surprised if he left tbh.

Spot on. He’s likely holding out hope that he can get some big catches in the playoffs and a 5-7th round draft grade. Likely not going to happen, needs to stick around another year and work himself into a day 2 draftee.

If you want to get all the positive feels, here are some great pictures from the Dispatch. Let's run it back boys.

HC Ryan Day (B1G Coach of Year, B1G Champion, National Champion)

Yes, he excels at it, but he also sucks at it. It just depends on which Day we get and from much of what I’ve seen this year, I’m not super encouraged. Hartline didn’t call that bullshit Indiana scheme by himself. Let’s hope that we somehow get the CFP 2024 version.
Luckily we aren’t playing TCUN. Other than them Day has been very very good.

Think of the game with long layoffs. UGA, Utah, and both Clemson games.

I agree it’s likely a benefit because now the tendencies for the year start over. They’ll have to study the past years film to get a gauge on his tendencies et.

The turtling was Julian more than Ryan. He definitely got hit more than usual, but there were also a lot of plays where he had time but felt pressure earlier than it was there. He was not processing or executing anywhere his usual level. Far from a bad performance but also not near his usual self, particularly with some well drawn up plays that were just missed. Good learning moment for a young QB who is ultra quick at processing what the defense is doing but has not been tested heavily very often this year (Michigan didn't touch him). Eager to see how he responds. I think he'll rise to the challenge.

It will also help that Tate will likely be able to stay on the field a lot more, with 3 weeks of rest under his belt.

Yeah, agreed, Sayin got rattled and confused that game, and it took a while to settle in.

Let's hope that the O line holds up. Tegra not playing should be a step in the right direction.

QB Prentiss "Air" Noland (transfer to South Carolina, transfer to Memphis)

Hopefully he can find a suitable landing spot. Kid has talent.

Hopefully, but a third system in 3 years is incredibly difficult for a young QB.

I'm assuming Haynes King is finally graduating, maybe GT wouldn't be a bad landing spot.

My biggest fear is Ruben Bain gets a sack on Sayin, and Day freezes up to protect him. That is the one way that I can see Miami beating us, is if they put pressure early, and Day turtles up, which unfortunately seems to be a tendency.

Jesus. Alright. Enough already.

Why not just tell us to go home and get our fuckin’ pill box.
Ignore them. It's just someone who can't count.

I mean, if J Smith was a baby during that game it would mean I was in my mid fifties.

Can't say that fills me with optimism given the 2023 offense. I'd rather he be heavily involved in the gameplay and let Hartline call the plays
Here is the thing, Day has been calling the majority of the plays all year.

Hartline is distracted with USF.

Day probably realizes this is due or die and has to treat every game like it is the seasons last, because that is the truth.

I don't see a reason for him holding back, getting weird like IU, or seizing up like he tends to do when the season is still in process.

The worst part about it is every single one is wide-open at the top of the key & he's missing all of them. It's hard to fathom how he can keep missing all these easy 3s considering he's been very good at shooting free throws. It makes me wonder how much these guys practice shooting 3s.
