Even if he somehow won the CFP playoff this year I still would not trust him not to do the same shit against Michigan next year.

People are largely a product of their past. What I see in Day is an inability to respond in an appropriate way emotionally during games. Several times during his tenure, Day has mentioned things that suggest keeping one's emotions in check. I get that. You don't want your players to break down emotionally because they fall behind. But it is something deeper going on. I watched how he responded to Harry Miller and what he said about him and his own father, and how he handled team mental health (which I applaud). I also see him dancing in the middle of the team in the locker room. He expresses emotions. But there is something going on there that I am not competent to comment on and, even if I were, it would be improper to do so.
I know I am rambling, but we want a coach that will say, "Go ahead. Make my Day" and then reach across the table and choke someone to win a game of checkers. I thought we saw that guy emerging in the waning moments of the Indiana game but then TCUN happens.
I guess that what I am saying is that it looks to me like, if Day continues to be the coach, he needs a personal coach of his own and, if he has a personal coach, then probably he needs another one.

I do wonder how many people feel this way. And I am not singling you out. Just really curious how many people would be upset with a NC but also a loss to ttun?
Personally, I will take a NC any year over beating ttun. But maybe I am in the minority.
I would not be upset with a NC at all, losing to a bad scUM team would make it a little less enjoyable though.

What do you need water for, Sunshine?
what i’m beginning to realize over the last few weeks, and especially the last few days, in this new cfp era, is that the answer to this question probably falls along generational lines.
i’d guess that that generational dividing line, for the most part, falls between those among the broader fanbase (not just the specific subset on this site) who are at least old enough to remember the cooper years and those whose formative memories only reach as far as as the tressel and urban years.

To me getting into a 12 team playoff alone means nothing, especially if you are getting bounced in the 1st or 2nd round every year.

Yep it would be different if we were consistently beating scUM but getting bounced in the 2nd round of the playoff on most occasions. That at least gives us something to be happy about. Both losing to scUM and not getting past the round of 8 is not gonna have Day lasting long.
