Mike Hall opens up on how Ryan Day, Ohio State get players ready for NFL
“I actually received my offer from Coach Day,” Hall told On3 via Zoom. “A blessing to be able to be coached by him and learn a lot of things. Just to come in and have these standards, we’ve got to live up to them every day. It’s a high expectation at Ohio State. It’s a fight every day, day-in and day-out.
“Your spot on the roster is not set. You’ve got to earn it day-in and day-out. That was known for everybody, no matter what, if you’re a special teams, kicker, punter. Very competitive and be able to set you up very well for the next level.”

While he goes about his rookie season in the NFL, Mike Hall said he’ll try to keep tabs on his Buckeyes while making sure he’s handling his responsibilities in the league. He’s sure the goal won’t change, though, and that goes back to the expectations Day and the staff set every year.
“I think I’ll still have a certain amount of time to be able to look at them or even watch their games,” Hall said. “I’ve got to take care of my priorities first. I wish those guys the best. Hopefully, they’ll be able to attain that national championship and be able to fulfill that finally. Bring one back to Columbus. That’s definitely the goal that Coach Mick Marotti and Coach Day, they set the standard of every year.
“If it’s not that, then it’s nothing.”
