HC Ryan Day (B1G Coach of Year, B1G Champion, National Champion)

[lvbuckeye]

Question is irrelevant due to NIL. It can change in the blink of an eye now.

They have a $50 million roster this year.

 

[lvbuckeye]

2004 Bollman was the idiot offensive coordinator, Heacock called nothing but soft zone on 3 rd down. Tressel may not know how to create a real DI staff etc etc.

I’m not drawing direct comparisons, who knows how these guys turn out. Just saying that the two situations severely similar

How many times did Tressel lose to TCUN?

 

[Gunlife]

He needs to let the dogs out to run this week. Go uptempo. The season just got shorter.

The QB isnt capable. We are Fucked the rest of the year

 

[lvbuckeye]

Still makes me chuckle.. We're bashing just about most winningest coach ever.. and certainly of current era..
Yeah, he deserves a kick in the nuts right now.. but OSU ain't canning Ryan Day..

He's 6-5 in his last 11 games, and it would have been 5-6 if IU's receiver got his right foot down.

 

[Gunlife]

I think he’s already lost the locker room and the other 2 are definitely possible

Thats the worst second half I have seen. Season on the line, down only 3, and then just get dominated. Then they rub your face in it and put in their backups....Jesus

FIFY

Does anyone want Day fired right now? I don't think so...

But depending on how this season ends, his seat could range from warm to scorching hot.

He will almost certainly get next season (barring a complete meltdown), but if he flops again, he's done.

And that is the way it should be.

I doubt the guy who just brought home a national championship the season before last will be out the door after his Heisman finalist QB had a season-ending injury.

Just a hunch. Pretty sure they’ll give him the benefit of the doubt for a while. He’s on a pretty short list of names when it comes to National Champs at Ohio State.

As one who distrusts absolutes, here is where I think I am at:

Day just had. A massive cohort of talent go through to the NFL the past two years. Even at a place like OSU , 13 guys two years in a row (or something close to that) is a MASSIVE talent drain.

Reminds me somewhat of Tressel in ‘04 after that NC had all washed through. We looked human and lots of questions started.

I remember how bad that year felt and I also remember how he pulled it together at the end and used The Game to springboard into the next cycle of great years.

So that was Tressel. I’d use it as a comp to see how Day does in comparison.

Feels similar enough.

The change of QB in 2004 changed the entire trajectory of the program. You know, the one who struggled to read the defense.

FIFY

Thats true. My point was Day had them all in the locker room at halftime. And they came out lost. Hes lost the room I am afraid

Fired now, no. If he doesn't fire position coaches, then yes.

How many times did Tressel lose to TCUN?

At that point he was 2-1

 

[heisman]

At that point he was 2-1

Followed that “slow start“ with 7 in a row. The boss.

 

[knuckifyoubuck]

I'm afraid he's soft, personally. Would love to "Apologize." but this is a bad situation.

That’s kind of what I’m trying to point out.

It’s ok to hit a rough patch-it happens. How do you come out of it?

Here is what happened when Tress hit a similar patch.
