Pressure Mounts on Ohio State Coach Ryan Day

Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day faces significant pressure heading into the 2024 season, particularly due to three consecutive losses against arch-rival Michigan and subpar performances in recent bowl games. Analyst Paul Finebaum has suggested that another loss to Michigan and an early exit from the College Football Playoff could cost Day his job, despite his impressive 56-8 record and a strong roster. Compounding the pressure, five-star cornerback recruit Na’eem Offord, who verbally committed to Ohio State, is reconsidering his commitment and visiting Oregon, raising concerns among fans. Day remains optimistic, emphasizing the return of key players as a reason for potential success this season. The Buckeyes are aiming for a national championship or bust, with high expectations and a talented squad to back it up.
