Ohio State’s Ryan Day is one of the few head coaches who still calls his team’s offensive plays. That could be coming to an end as the Buckeye boss enters his sixth season at the helm.
According to former Ohio State quarterback and current ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit, Day told him during one of their production meetings that he was thinking of relinquishing play calling next year in an effort “to be more of a manager as a head coach.” Herbstreit went on to explain the rationale by saying “when you’re prepping a game plan, it’s a lot more that goes into it Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday to be ready to call those plays on Saturday.”
