HC Ryan Day (2019 B1G Media COY)

There is absolutely no way he goes transfer portal. It’s Brown or McCord in ‘24, loser (probably) transfers.

He went with Fields from the transfer portal then Tate transferred. That wasn't with the guarantee that Field could definitely play that year, they had to put a petition in. I wouldn't rule Day going into the transfer portal again.

I think Mccord is a QB you don't want to transfer until Day secures his new QB from the portal so if he goes that route, it will most likely be a surprise to most. Like you don't want McCord and Brown transferring just in case we don't secure the guy Day wants. If we get who Day wants then you live with both McCord and Brown transferring.

Honest question. Why dies everyone write off Lincoln? He was a top recruit with extreme athleticism just like Fields. Fields was a true sophomore that didn't have a year in the OSU system like Lincoln has. Why write off one OSUs big recruits so early?

I know we’d never get a straight answer from him, but I’d love to know Urban’s honest opinion on whether Day is still the man for the job. He hand-picked him as OC and then as his successor….I’m sure he’d still do the former, but would he do the latter if he had to do it all over again?

Keep in mined that the transfer portal works a little different now; QBs won't come cheap. It could easily cost upwards to $2M to get a can't miss top flight QB (if there is one) out of the transfer portal. See the going NIL rate for QBs:

What were the options at the time? If you take a look at the Head coaches hired that year, would you have taken any of them over Ryan Day. You have to look at the coaches through the 2018 lenses. Not what the coaches are now but what they were back then. Some were coordinators and some were coming from very small schools.

I’m really trying here - I really am.

Blew a double digit lead against Clemson; absolutely waxed in the natty; blew a double digit lead against Georgia - 3 straight losses to the fucking cock
sucking pieces of shit up north.

Dude has fallen short or just fallen flat on his face at every opportunity and I’m supposed to convince myself that we can’t find someone better.

I get it 56-7 is excellent, but ffs

Expanded playoff may really muddy things. If he loses to scUM again next year AND in the first round of the playoff. Does he get another pass because “HE MADE THE PLAYOFF!!”?
This will be the really interesting question. If Day keeps going as the last 3 years have been, losing that game today still results in a playoff birth. So, my guess is that with the 13 teamer, Day makes the playoff almost every year, even if he loses to Michigan every year. Then what? Do the playoff games, and not the Michigan game, determine his status? Or does “having a shot” every year become good enough? My guess is fans will wildly diverge on their opinions on that, probably broken down by generation.

i get what you're trying to say, but... to be objective, Day hasn't exactly set the world on fire in his playoff appearances either.

EDIT: yeah... i get that the competition level in the 12-team will not be at today's level.

He’d have to win the playoff to make people forget about the Michigan loss. But if you can’t win a big rivalry game against less talented Michigan teams are you really going to win a 12 team playoff? Probably not

I have a hard time seeing TTUN being relevant for several years after they lose all of these seniors and the NCAA hits them with whatever they are going to do for the cheating. Assuming TTUN and tOSU are still 1-2 in the new divisionless Big 10 I feel like that means there will be The Game, the Big 10 championship game, and potentially a playoff game. Of the past 3 years I would love to have a rematch this year indoor at a neutral site. The blocking and QB play is down this year compared to the last two, but the defense is much improved.

NIL deals though aren't just exclusively by the alumni or boosters of the school they go to. Like the top 3 guys on that list most likely have deals with companies that want to get in on them early to have a deal with them when they go pro also.

Like Arch Manning could have a mix of deals that are Texas boosters and national brands that just want to be associated with him. The Texas booster deals would most likely be gone if he transfers but any national brands deals he has would probably be thrilled with him to get to a big name program that he could play next year. I'm sure the Buckeyes boosters can replace the deals that Texas boosters were giving him.
