So does Ryan Day cling to his job now or will they try to find someone who can beat Michigan?

I guess we'll finally find out if they really "care more about beating Michigan than winning championships."

If he had beaten scUM this year they'd be casting the bronze for his statue in Columbus today.

I wonder how much BB's connections w/NEP got him this role. If BB helped, that's a good thing to market to potential future staff members.

Buccaneers Request OC Interview With Rams’ Nate Scheelhaase

Lost the notification on my phone, but ESPN is reporting that OSU DC Jim Knowles is moving to Penn St. on a three year deal. That has to be pretty unusual for an assistant to get that length of contract.

Two year deals are the norm for position coaches. Top coordinators getting three years is not abnormal.

Wow, just a couple days ago there were plenty of Ohio State folks reporting that he was staying put.

Appreciate the clarification. I always figured position coaches were year to year with coordinators getting two.

Grant Morgan going to the Giants I believe. Good for him.

Bielema helping out his former NFL team?

 

[OskieWowWow]

Charlie Bullen on staff there as well

Yes ... Morgan to the Giants and K Rich to Patriots is the main two I know about so far ...

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Charlie Bullen on staff there as well

Bingo ... Bullen was big on the assist with that one ...

Bret very connected with New England and connected with Vrabel ... Bret knows everyone I swear ...

Are we developing an NFL pipeline of a different sort? I'm fine with this!!! The more pipelines we have, the better!!! lol

He's going to be paid $3M a year. He has to pay tOSU $1.2 to get out of his contract.

I wonder if Saban is going to decry the lack of competitive balance in some schools being able to pay coordinators $2-3 million a year while other schools can't afford 1/10th of that.
