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

    I'm not sure if it has or hasnt, but I certainly agree he's more than earned the BOTD, at least for some time. I wouldn't be confident in saying the game has passed him by completely, but two years is really all it takes, see Urban's 2016 offense. I think it's an odd situation where the two...

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

    This is just my opinion here but I don't think it's so much about what he's done. More about the very valid concerns that people have about him being the head guy here going into the future. The game's changing and actual X & O coaching is more important than ever, talent is equating, and that...

    I do generally agree, although I've never been in a position with that level of pressure, so I can't say for sure. Like I said, just riffing, I wouldn't pretend to understand myself psychologically, let alone a stranger with that level of performance expectations. All I know is this, we're...

    This is pure speculation and conjecture so probably not worth anything but... I wonder about those Michigan games when they were actively cheating, and whether or not that had some kind of psychological effect on his general mindset/approach. If the opponent was calling the perfect defense...

    2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

    Beyond that, these redzone issues have been a constant. Even that dominant 2019 (best team of my lifetime for sure) team bowed out early cause we couldn't punch the fucking ball in. Day's always struggled with that to a degree, and the struggle doubles without the overwhelming talent that we no...

    The call to go for 2 instead of kicking the XP was criminally idiotic.

    Literally every game left is a coin toss, gonna need a lot of good bounces these next 4 weeks.

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

    I'm in no panic, Mike80 is right, last night was a mess, but not a complete domination by any means. I will say, unpopular opinion or not, I'm a little skeptical about Day going forward in this changing landscape of college football (and no, I am NOT in the fire Day crowd). Everything's still...

    tOSU @ USC BMW Thread

    It's always the same set of shortcomings. There's usually enough of a talent disparity that we can outplay them, unfortunately that's no longer the case. And all of those shortcomings reared their ugly heads tonight, and then some. The future without our old talent advantage is somewhat...

    The talent deficit in the personnel is clear from last year. I think he's done a great job up to this point, but tonight he's gonna have to turn it around.
