I wonder what the years of collecting so much talent at QB and WR under Urbs and Day did to the recruiting at other positions, particularly at offensive line and linebacker.

That doesn’t Fall on the HCs, but the assistants not doing their jobs. Stud was a solid coach but terrible recruiter, and LBs have been a mixed bag since Vrabel left. But QB, RB, WR, TE, DL(though there have been a few big misses recently), CB and S haven’t been stronger.

The born on 3rd base line is stupid considering it comes from a guy who took over a program that was in pretty good shape talent wise, but then it took him almost a damn decade to finally have "great success". So what Harbaugh was born on 2nd and it took him 7 years to finally move over to 3rd?

Schools like UGA, Bama and OU should have far more consecutive ranked seasons than OSU, due to talent in state or their proximity to elite talent. The 3rd base argument is laughable IMO, because Day could've taken OSU off of a cliff and not many would've been surprised due to immense pressure from a first time HC. Hairball should've had scUM at CFP level from the jump and he didn't, so his 3rd base argument is needed for his own validation

Exactly and I think many fans that do not follow recruiting closely miss a lot of what Day and his staff are doing even aside from really good results on the field. He is winning battles like nobody before him did, that includes UFM and I named my dog after UFM. He has done really well early on as a first-time coach and the cumulative success should not be ignored.

However, he needs to consistently beat ttun and that is the ultimate measure of success for me because that rivalry means so much. We just don't have a sufficient sample size in that category yet, so I am all on the Day-train viewing things collectively and think he is an awesome coach and even better person. But if we get the hell beat out of us by ttun again, love the guy but that might the end of the road. I know I sound like a contrarian, but I am all onboard with Day and want him to succeed. You just can't fall that far in the hole in The Game as a coach here unless your name is Jim Harbaugh apparently.

I think what you're saying is he's checking off a lot of the boxes you want to see checked, but there's one giant box he's struggling with.
