Get through this season but identify coaching candidates now and move on them early. The offensive and defensive line coaches and output need to be put under a microscope.

Get an experienced QB for next year.

Stop slowing the game down to win in the 4th quarter. It's a failed strategy. Rotate 2's into the game for a few plays to get used to playing with the 1s.

Forget the damn player awards. The reason Ohio State lost early is the over-reliance on #4. Build a TEAM that can play together and win.

I‘d say I’m amazed at the vitriol for Day but I’m not. We have one of the worst fan(atic) fan bases in all of sports. I don’t know how half of Buckeye fandom survives on the daily. Most wanted him fired and he delivered a national championship. Less than two years later and the worst of the worst are back at it. I wish I could heave ho the lot and send them to Michigan fandom. Oh well. We root for the same team, but we are most certainly not the same. I pray for peace and happiness for those distraught souls In our radical fringe. Oh well. Go Bucks!

I'd say his team turned into the lunatic fringe and heave ho'd him to it...

Well firing the ST coach is a start. Will be interesting to see who else goes.

I second that I just want this offense to get back to not giving a fuck about playing slow. Just score. Just be the top 5 offense in the country you used to be Ryan.

Depending who’s out there a QB may be necessary but for sure can’t roll into next year with Luke. Maybe he’ll be good eventually but surely you can do better than that for next year .

Does anyone think Day should take over play calling duties the rest of the year?. I do believe hes burnt out, but he is paid 10million+ per year. Put Arther in the booth and put your pants backs on.

Next man on the chopping block definitely has to be the water boy. Did you see how thirsty Jeremiah was out there? After that, next guess is probably a new set of cheerleaders. Block O just wasn’t bringing it and someone has to take the blame for that whispering eye Oregon walked into.

This stuff cracks me up. Woody won three national championships here and still got run out of town for having three sub-10 win seasons in a row. I do not feel one iota of guilt over how 50+ years of high standards have been maintained at this program

I'm pretty sure something else ran him out of town.

Which, similarly 10 years earlier, Tom Herman did the same for Cardale.

well, he created a new identity, if you want to go that far, by using what was in place already (an ELITE run game and talent at RB).

That was part of the point I was making about how mid this team is after Sayin went down.

The pieces to do any other flavor of offense but THTGDB are not present.

The more fair analogy would be what happens in 2014 if JT Barrett goes out and take Zeke with him? Titty bar Tom wasn't that munch of a Mensa member. No one is.

Would you hire someone with this resume:

2 conference championships.
1 national championship
85% winning percentage
First coach from his school to win conference coach of the year in 40 years.
7 heisman finalists
20 first round draft picks

Not saying the guy doesn’t have his problems, as we all do. But I have to bet most other programs would be happy to have our problems.
