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

I seriously believe Hartline is the one calling the plays yes.

Of course he has influence on the game plan. There literally isn't a head coach on the planet who doesn't on offense OR defense. And please bring up the play card in his hand and ignore the fact that he has a defensive one too.....

Do you seriously think he's calling the defense too? Or is it only because you don't see Hartline using the walkie talkie like Patricia does?

What I’ve heard is that Hartline now runs the offensive game planning meetings, where they decide which plays they are going to run and the strategy for the game. Prior to last year Day always ran these meetings and it was a huge time suck that he shouldn’t do as a HC. This season Day still attends most of the meetings, is heavily involved in the planning and has the final sign off on the game plan. To me it’s less about the in game play calling and more about the offensive strategy decided during the week. That’s when they decide on the pool of red zone plays that they will use. That’s when it gets decided that we will pull smith and Tate for TE 3 and TE4.
My frustration is like many with questioning why our best players are taken off the field at crucial times. And Im probably wrong that Hartline is the one calling the plays, but Day gets the blame. in the end, win the games. But I think the offense should be put in better position at opportune times to put 7 on the board

Ohio State Wrestling (2015/2017/2018 B1G Champs, 2015 National Champs, 2019 National Runners-up)

No. 2 Ohio State vs. Little Rock
125 – Vinny Kilkeary vs. Jeremiah Reno. Kilkeary Maj. 4-0 OSU. Bouzakis gets a few more hours to recover.
133 – (2) Ben Davino vs. Dillon Cooper. Davino TF 9-0 OSU.
141 – (1) Jesse Mendez vs. Brennan Van Hoecke. Mendez TF 14-0 OSU.
149 – (6) Ethan Stiles/Dax Chase vs. Brock Herman. Chase Dec. over Herman. 17-0 OSU. Familiarity and Stiles gets a few more hours to recover.
157 – (4) Brandon Cannon/Landon Desselle vs. Jaivon Jones. Cannon Maj. 21-0 OSU. No reason Cannon doesn't wrestle both matches.
165 – (16) Paddy Gallagher/e'Than Birden vs. (5) Matty Bianchi. Bianchi Maj. 21-4 OSU. Birden loses this one for Paddy to win the next.
174 – (4) Carson Kharchla/Carter Chase vs. Gunner Holland. Chase Dec. 23-4 OSU. Kharch on a pitch count.
184 – (6) Dylan Fishback/Cayaen Smith vs. Kodiak Canndey. Fishback Maj. over Smith 27-4 OSU. I'd rather it be Fishback / Kodiak for the optics.
197 – (14) Luke Geog/Seth Shumate vs. Stephen Little. Little Fall over Shumate. 27-10 OSU. I believe Shumate has a better shot to pin than Geog.
285 – (3) Nick Feldman vs. Michael Gasber/Kaden Darwin. Feldman TF 32-10 OSU.

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs aTm/Miami-FL winner, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

I want Ohio State to beat as many SEC teams as possible.
I want A&M, then Georgia.
The finals can be either Alabama or Indiana (after Indiana beats Alabama).
I want the final four to be Indiana, Oregon, Ohio State, and Georgia. Ohio State beats Georgia and Indiana beats Oregon, then Ohio State beats Indiana.
That's my perfect playoff this year.
