I personally think day will be there next year as HC unless he gets completely blown out or misses the playoffs all together this year.
OSU will always recruit well but with a new coach it's a question of how well (top 3 classes vs top 10 classes) But we've seen schools like Miami and usc and Florida go from top 3 classes every year to more like top 15-20. There's def a big difference from a top 3 class year in and out vs being at or near the top 10 level.
Not saying that would be the case, but it's possible.
What's next for him?
He was told he should invest in running the ball more, and now he does it even when it's not working in fear of being called soft.
He was told to let go of calling plays so he can "CEO" & keep his pulse on things & have a bird's eye view, so he went & hired his best friend to run the exact off he'd want and look at how it's turning out so far.
He was giving carte Blanche to run a bag up in the portal, got transfers he selected personally, with enough talent that should be able to overwhelm anybody with proper preparation.
He was told he needs to whip his def staff into shape & they made adjustments the last couple of yrs to where all he needs to do is his part on off & he can't do that in the games that matter.
At what point, does excuses stop being made? You don't not take a risk because you're scared of what's on the other side...
Nobody cares about your school or rivalry though.
It’s different round these parts. Yall games come on at 10 pm eastern time and nobody cares about the rivalry you got with Portland state community college. On this side of the country football is a little more important. They was bout to fire harbaugh cause he couldn’t get the job done.Awwwwww.. its gon be ok. If I could replace my hurt with your hurt I would. Im just not hurt tho... lol
All fair points my breh
You'd hire Vrabel?
Next coach, 100% needs to be a former player or former staffer or someone who fully understands the rivalry better.
Thats my concern with MSU's coach...after losing to scUM this year he was just like "whoa now I understand how intense this rivalry is" like no shyt dawg this isn't some pac 12 bullshyt rivalry
My man... you trying to make this about about money and that's the wrong way of looking at this. He will be paid because he was good for what he brought to the table.37 million dollar buyout.. buyout for assistants too
And then pay for a new staff? He not going anywhere. Hard to believe he would be fired.
Hell we lost 3 straight to Washington before yesterday. He gotta figure it out tho..
And we have the same AD who bought Fisher outjimbo fisher had a 77 million buyout
Is this guy serious??Jimbo record is different than Day. A&M money is different than most anybody.
Most importantly.. it sends a terrible message to any incoming coach. That you can have his record, be in the playoffs and get fired. Be real bro
Crying about about a buyout... these guys think Ohio State is Ohio University or something???same athletic director who was the ad at texas a&m last year
all it takes is a couple of boosters like Jay Schottenstein who want day gone
Day doesn't have a B10 championship since 2019 and has zero nations championships.I agree. But even Tressel didn't recruit at this level consistently. He was getting to that point before the tattoo-gate.
sometimes it's not as easy for other coaches. Look at what's happened at usc post-Pete.
