Appreciate everything he has done and i for one am ok with this
It seemed the job was effecting his health which in turn was effecting his coaching ability

 

[steelerssb]

So where's he coaching in 2020?

 

[MAIZEandBLUE09]

It’s happening. It’s really happening.

It’s happening. It’s really happening.

Be careful what you wish for, Day looked quite comfortable in his 3 game stint

Harbaugh's reaction?

"That's how the pickle squirted this time. Do you have any milk?

Congrats. Your team might actually stand a chance now.

Good for Urban. He's making the right decision. Also the announcement is coming early enough to hopefully not fuck up recruiting.

Now I'll be REALLY excited if he's taking Bill Davis and Greg Schiano with him.

OSU is losing arguably one of the best coaches to ever coach the game of college football. It's extremely unlikely that another Urban Meyer is just sitting on the team as their offensive coordinator. Urban was also one of the best recruiters in the game. This is a massive loss for OSU.

No doubt this is a massive loss for OSU. I am sure everyone up north was laughing hysterically when OSU hired Jim Tressel.

No idea if Ryan Day will be the next Urban Meyer, but other than Saban, who has that guy? NOOOOBODY!

This keeps continuity with the system, Day has been crucial in recruiting. Will they lose a few? Sure. Will they get a few they may not have otherwise? Probably.

I for one am not worried.

Just heard... Damn.

I still can't believe it

It's hardly like Day is chopped liver. He has been brought up as a potential candidate for numerous HC jobs. I don't instantly expect him to be Urban Meyer, but there's no reason to think he can't keep OSU at the top of the B1G.

Jim Tressel was a good coach....but he was no Urban. Urban is in an elite group of coaches throughout history. No one knows who the next best thing will be. But landing one of those coaches is very hit or miss.

Urbie to retirement, Harbaugh to Green Bay.

Same. I have been adamant all season that he'd be back next year.

This is the best random Tuesday I've had in a while.
