Ohio State Head Coach Ryan Day. Who could have envisioned that two years ago?
With Urban Meyer stepping down as the Buckeyes head man after the Rose Bowl, Ohio State is about to venture into new territory, with the 39-year-old Day leading the charge. What can we expect from the soon-to-be new Head Coach?
On this episode of the Hangout in the Holy Land, Patrick Mayhorn and I are joined by special guest —and former podcast co-host— Matt Brown (BUY HIS COLLEGE FOOTBALL BOOK) to talk about Meyer’s retirement, and the future of the Ohio State program under Day.
