Too soon old, too late smart
Read that with my negative nelly bifocals, and hope Patricia's not getting crosswise with LJsr, as did previous DC. But tOSU has exhibited some great recruiting chops this year, everywhere except DL. Saw this as a kinda sorta thing, like the Bama President telling Nick Saban he ought to run more end arounds.....

I could also see it as Day saying someone needs to help with DL recruiting. From following Day as a coach, he seems to think like many of us on these message boards, and doesn't seem like a coach with his head in the sand. He has a keen eye for recruiting, and who's doing well and who's doing... maybe not as well with their position. And he isn't shy about finding resolutions or guys need to move(i.e. Eliano, Stud, Frye, Kelly, Alford)

Thought this had been solved, when tOSU had an 'heir-apparent' (who fled to Texas). Believe tOSU is reaching a point where opposing coaches are using the 'LJ is gonna retire soon' against us (still....), and the recruiting simply is not where it should be. Don't really have a solution, and apparently, neither does Day. When I look at those coaches that have been shown the door, none have attained the professional pinnacle that LJsr has. Doubt that we fanatics will ever see it, but wonder if Day has the cojones to give LJ the ultimatum of an MBO (management by objective), of getting 3 (?) 5* DL guys into the fold. Forget the DL coach's name, but appears that Texas has corralled 5 (!) DT guys from the portal this year. Maybe to keep them out of tOSU's hands?
