HC Ryan Day (2019 B1G Media COY)

Ryan Day likely needs an overhaul at the coaching spots on both OL and DL, preferably with younger talent that would chew nails and spit glass. But, that's what every team needs, those dudes don't grow on trees. Frye can't recruit. LJ can recruit his ass off but now, can't coach? Ouch.

Day is young and if his heart can take it, he'll be here long enough to win at least one title, could even be this year if the right heads get knocked around. The Secondary and LB are in good hands. The RB and WR are in outstanding hands. Fix the lines and lets fucking go already

This is an aside, so mods feel free to move, but I really don't think we need to go young with positional coaches, especially on the line. I look at a guy like Brian Callahan with Minnesota, who is 55'ish, and how he has consistently developed top tier OL...John Michael Schmitz, Faalele, Ersery...and that was 3 straight years. Schmitz wasn't even a top 1000 kid, Faalele was a 3*/low 4*, Ersery was a 3* barely a top 1000 kid. We really don't have to think too hard or re-invent the wheel when you're OSU...look at who is consistently doing what you want to do, and get them.

Aside from the poor clock management late in the game vs Oregon, Day just doesn’t seem to publicly hold his assistants accountable. Perhaps he is ripping them behind closed doors. But his D is simply great vs weaklings and average vs similarly talented teams.

Day had a great game plan vs Clemson in ‘19 and ‘20…..horrible luck in ‘19 caused us to lose that one.
Day had his team ready to play vs Georgia. Ran out of healthy offensive players and Ransom slipped on the ‘80 yard TD

But the problem I see is he give his assistants 1 year too many. That goes for Frye and LJ. They both should have been gone after last season.

We need killer coaches, not has-beens or nice guys.
