HC Ryan Day (2019 B1G Media COY)

The temper tantrum is getting old, bro. We get it, you hate Day.
When your punter averages 30 yards, and your kicker can't make a 34 yard FG, and the best result of your KR team is to take a fair catch, i think it's pretty safe to assume that you don't give a flying fuck about special teams.

If Chip Kelly stays, nothing changes. Nothing. They are the same person and an echo chamber in the offensive brain trust kills innovation.

That's easy for us to say. We're not walking away from millions and millions of dollars.
He already has millions and millions of dollars. Give me $1 million after taxes tomorrow, and I will never work a day again in my life. I'll have enough left over to set the kids up as well.

Ramzy....enough said

Nailed it. I said something similar that he said at the end. Whatever version of Ryan Day this is? He needs to forget it because that’s not the Ryan Day that crushed TCUN 2017-2019.

I wouldn't say the coordinators are taking all the heat by any stretch. Have you read this thread? We're a biscuit short of organizing a mob outside of the WHAC. I do think Day had a huge hand in that game plan and play calling. His fingerprints were all over it. But this is where we run into a problem. A big one. Day has glaring limitations as a head coach and offensive mind. As such, he either needs a coordinator that can talk some fucking sense into him, or we need to move the fuck on. If we're going to continue doing the same damn thing with a rotating cast of assistants every year and expect different results, we're well on our way to becoming Llllllloyd Carr's or Cheatin' Jim's (pre Stalions) _ichigan. There's no pulling up at this point. The goddamned plane has crashed into the mountain.
A coordinator can never talk some sense into the head coach. The head coach is the HEAD COACH. Ryan Day is (was) an elite OC and QB coach. Since he became head coach, he is neither an elite OC, nor is he an elite QB coach.

That's what's so perplexing. It's also why I personally will give him a longer leash for what that's worth lol.

He doesn't have a 20 year turtle history. He has a very mixed bag 5 year history as HC. While it's easy to focus on the very recent lows, there were some pretty kick ass highs too. Took simple Jim and that Nintendo fatso half a decade to figure anything out and simple Jim had the luxury of being an NFL hc for a while before that.

I guess to me, in the modern cfb where losses aren't as crucial, I'm willing to give him another 2 years to see if he can figure shit out. Because if he does, we could dominate for a couple decades and look back at the 3 year tsun cheating to win vacated period as the great depression. If he doesn't figure it out, we move on and he goes to some G5 school and beats us in the national championship game one day lol

I’m paraphrasing but Ryan Day says they nearly made a change along the offensive against Michigan…..didn’t get everything they wanted out of offensive line in game.

Likely they’ll have a different front 5 in playoffs.

He didn’t expound on it, but from what I’m hearing…..the like Hinzman in interior but don’t like his snapping mechanics. When he snaps with velocity, it’s off target. When he snaps to be on target, it’s painfully slow. Sounds like OSU thinks the right move is to kick Hinzman back to guard, and likely go Padilla at center (possibly Montgomery but that’d be a surprise to me).

JMO, but I think Hinzman is back at guard the next time we see Buckeyes play.

Ramzy drops a lot of knowledge in this article. My personal fav: "Day allowed what should have been a track meet to become a hammer fight, where the visitors' only strength was hammer fighting."
I love Ramzy and the article is brilliant…..but I just get hung up a bit on how the team is built and how it correlates to Big 10 weather.

A Ryan Day team, from the inside out, just isn’t designed to work optimally when the weather gets nasty in late October/early November.

Nobody runs outdoor track meets in December in the Midwest…..that’s what indoor track is for.

It’s a massive issue for the Buckeyes.
