True but I see Day having a lot more success than Fickell. Im nervous about Day but I see him being successful. Gene Smith has nailed the aspect of hiring coaches for his programs. It’s the only thing he is good at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the only thing he is good at Urban wanting to coach the team is how he because coach. Gene smith didn’t do anything but sign the contract.

He has nailed the coaches for the other programs as well for the university. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Gene Smith hit a home run hiring Holtmann for the men’s basketball team. However, other than him he hasn’t had to make any tough coaching decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude turned tOSU into one of the best wrestling programs in the nation, passing Iowa and Iowa st as #2 and behind Penn St. heck Ryan might have developed the most decorated Ohio state Athlete ever or at least since Owens. He also nailed the hiring of the Women’s basketball coach. He has turned them into one of the better programs in the nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched a lot of practices, road with the team, and gave them the pregame speech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedTheClock Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Ryan Day is a great coach, but I don't think he has the chops to recruit kids from all over the country like Urban did. OSU's recruiting is going to take a hit, but they'll still win a lot of football games next year and finish in the top 10 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If national recruiting takes a slight hit but they hit on the Ohio kids that Urban let leave the state, then it will be close to a wash IMO. Ohio is a top 4-5 state in the nation, so just don't let those kids leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is the smartest thing to do. You ignore Ohio kids, they go to Wisky, MSU, PSU, and scUM and hurt you. You miss on an Ohio kid, they go else where in the Big10 and kill you 2-4 years. You miss on a national kid, they might hurt you once. Not saying to ignore national kids but just don’t need to build your classes around them. Just recruiting the top Ohio kids and Landing them should give you a top tier class. If you want a top3 you will need to land a few national kids.

Also, those kids can help keep the fire, passion, and energy in the building that the last game in November is ALWAYS the most important game on the schedule and of the year. That is honestly one of the few things I am worried about with Day. He does not have a true emotional tie to Ohio that Woody Hayes, Urban, and Tressel had that allowed them to live and breathe the rivalry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
