I do not choose to discuss it
Another thing that pushes back on the “Day is soft/complacent” narrative is the 2019 and 2020 Clemson games.
The 2019 team lost a game they easily could have won if 11 unfortunate things didn’t snowball against them.
Day and the team remembered that and absolutely beat the hell out of Clemson in the rematch, with even the defense looking good against a #1 overall QB.
Day passed that test with flying colors and showed an absolute edge in getting the team ready for the rematch.
I don’t see why anyone (outside of delusional/stupid Michigan fans) would expect something different going into this season.
And although one could argue it could have been done sooner, he also was fairly cutthroat in revamping the defensive staff to address a clear problem.
He was also the hand picked successor of Meyer, who I think people compare Day to with the “soft” evaluation.
I don’t think Meyer would have chosen Day if he didn’t have the right competitive fire, and I don’t think you need to come off like an insane asshole to prove that you are competitive.
The Clemson revenge game was one data point in favor of Day, here’s hoping he adds a few more this season.
