wah wah wah Haskins hadn't played until he came in and lit Michigan up excuses excuses, same with Cowboy Craig Krentzel, he was a 3rd stringer until a series of unfortunate events put him in as a starter to fulfill Tressel's promise you and your excuses for JT, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain More lack of knowledge. JT's first year at Ohio State was spent rehabbing his year. His 2nd year a week before the season he becomes the starter. Haskins played his entire Senior year in HS. He did not have knee surgery. He was healthy and worked with the team for two years before he played. Krenzel was healthy and worked with the team for three years before he played. You're the mud slinging whiner excuse maker, I deal in facts. Unlike you I do not hate Ohio State players or coaches.

LOL THROWN TO THE WOLVES VTECH WAS IN MAN COVERAGE THE WHOLE GAME LOLOLOLZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since he rehabbed his knee the first year at Ohio State, thrown to the wolves means he had very little practice time before playing against a real team. VaTech played a Bear Defense rushing 6 on almost ever play, They knew more than you about JT's lack of experience. Who's your source?

You're the one always crying like a baby. JT had a couple weeks of OHIO STATE practice. the others you mention had multiple YEARS of OHIO STATE practice. Practice, we're talking PRACTICE!

Schiano is official out as DC and Mattinson in as DC. Day bringing in his own defensive guys. I like it

And many still think Al Washington will come to Ohio State as well.

Jeff Hafley also joining the staff. He was with Schiano at Rutgers and Tampa and also coached DB for the Browns. This past year he was with the 49ers as their db coach.

So who will be the running backs coach in 2027? 2027? Only the man upstairs knows. Tony Alford is still in place as far as I know.

Bill Green tweeted that an offer has been made to Al Washington about the linebacker position at Ohio state, just waiting on his decision.

Looks like Larry Johnson will continue his duties as DL coach, in addition to other responsibilities with his elevation to associate head coach. It will be interesting how the arrangement will be with early indications co-DC coordinator Mattison will be working with the defensive front seven. The two will mesh somehow. It is a known fact, Yurcich relishes a strong armed QB and loves to go deep. He also, occasionally utilizes a two back set in his offense. Does that mean Ohio State will once again be recruiting FB's?.....or big, strong TB's who can fill the roll of a FB when the need arises? I sure miss the days of the great OSU fullbacks like Champ Henson, Jim Otis, Pete Johnson, John Brockington and Vaughn Broadnax!

They had to do something for Johnson when they hired a U of M D-line coach, not as highly thought of as Johnson is, in that area and made him co-defensive coordinator. Yurich will be running Coach Day's offense. He will have input on changes. Don't forget about Kevin Wilson, who's been working with Day for 2 years. Ohio State's "fullbacks", currently are their Tight Ends, who play a lot of H-back. H-backs get better blocking angles than fullbacks do. AND they are a lot bigger than most full backs. Not many fullbacks are 6-5 260. Most tight ends, used as H-backs, have better hands for catching passes than fullbacks. Think of it this way, Harbaugh REALLY likes fullbacks for his archaic offense. We do not want to go there.

My biggest problem with the hiring of Mattison is his age. He's 5 years older than Johnson and other schools were telling recruits that Johnson was retiring. Now they'll be telling them that Mattison will be dead before they graduate. Yurich will be running Coach Day's offense. He will have input on changes.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes a lot of sense.

K.J. Hill to return for his senior season. I think this was the right decision for him. It will be nice to pair a veteran with all the young talent. I'll definitely take Hill at the 'H', Olave at the 'Z', and Mack/Victor at the 'X' spots. Although I wouldn't be surprised if Wilson slides in for Victor. Hill is also 50 receptions away from being tOSU's all-time leading receiver in that category. I'm sure that was some added motivation for him.

If Garret Wilson is everything people say he is, he will be a big part of the equation.

Early in the season, NFL had Hill as one of the top college receivers. As the season went on Haskins was throwing more passes to the other WRs, especially on deep routes, not as often run by the "H" or slot.

I might be totally wrong on this, but my guess is, the Buckeye offense, under Yurcich & Day, will have a significantly different look and the zone read will essentially be history. Expect something along the lines of a Pro-I or Power-I. If that becomes the case, expect the Buckeyes to be recruiting the bigger, stronger, roadgrader tackles, instead of the more athletic and mobile tackles that are necessary in executing the spread. People that can move bodies in establishing the run is vital, for the effectiveness of the play action pass.

Looks like tOSU filled out their final available coaching slot with Matt Barnes. He spend the last three seasons as Maryland's linebackers coach and added Special Teams Coordinator to his job title this past season. He also spent time at the school up north and Florida as a Graduate Assistant. He will be the Special Teams Coordinator here - taking over for Urban. No big shoes to fill or anything. In addition, he will be an assistant secondary coach. This hiring also means that Taver Johnson will not return after only one year as cornerbacks coach.
It was also reported that Marcus Freeman was offered the linebackers coaching position out of respect, with understanding that we would not take it considering it would technically be a demotion from his current position with the Bearcats.
Studrawa recently interviewed for the position at BG, his alma mater, but didn't get the gig. The latest rumor has him returning to Maryland to join Mike Locksley's new staff. Day will probably want to have staff finalized by today, as recruiting in earnest begins again tomorrow.

I have visited a variety of reliable sites in trying to get a read on coaching changes and have gotten zero indications of any additional, pending changes on the offensive side of the ball. Just going on the positive remarks from the now head coach Day, following the last three games, he expressed his pleasure with the play of the OL and how they effectively kept the QB clean and protected. I understand that doesn't mean he won't make an OL coaching change, in his continued quest to formulate a staff with his personal stamp on it. The other factor in the equation is recruiting. Stud is an excellent recruiter, with an inane abilitily to quickly form relationships and bonds with potential recruits, based on recruits feedback and comments. One particular recruit that is so vital to immediate Ohio States interests in the very near future is 4* OL Doug Nester out of WV. We are in a tight recruiting battle for his services. with Alabama, Clemson and other top programs. We need to win this battle and in my opinion, at this time of tenuousness, a coaching change would award one of the other schools with a very solid tackle. Personally, I'm pulling for coach Stud, since he is a personal friend of mine, as was his father Dennis, who coached at the high school level for many years. If he is replaced, or secures a job elsewhere, it won't upset me, because it is just the nature of the business.

Nimble footed guys to pass protect is required, like the ones Ohio State had this year. They were the Best O-line in the Big Ten at keeping their QB upright
