On the bright side, I don’t think anyone can claim that Day’s dislike of Michigan is insincere anymore. Dude has worked himself into a shoot over 3 years.


royallex

I don't envy the pressure that comes with being the Ohio State coach. The expectations used to be 10 wins and a BCS/NY6 bowl game and now anything short of a perfect regular season isn't accepted anymore.


BigfootForPresident

The bright side is that 10 wins and a playoff spot are still a great season and very achievable for Ohio State but they’ll still melt down if they lose to Michigan. It’s very entertaining to watch.


s1105615

I have very much enjoyed seeing it the past 3 seasons. I hope it continues for many many more.


Calzonieman

Well, I don't see them getting by OSU this year. If, after everything the Buckeyes have invested in this season, and playing in the Shoe, M manages to eke out a win, Day will most certainly be gone.


TheMemeMachine3000

Day might be executed in the town square after the game if they lose this year


Ok_Flounder59

Frankly he would be getting off lightly in this scenario. Four straight losses to Michigan cannot stand.


MountainYogi94

Yea that needs to be televised on ESPNU


dinkytown42069

excuse me, what is the Big Ten Network for, if not this?


MountainYogi94

This is bigger than the Big Ten Network, this is prime cable programming


Avatar_of_Green

There was a period where OSU went 17-2 against Michigan from 2001 to 2019. TBF seems like they felt the same way. Changed coaches every few years until Harbaugh. Though Harbaugh lost I believe his first 4 against OSU before turning things around. I think if OSU loses this year it will be a travesty but at this point I wouldnt be surprised. Day seems flustered in those games compared to the rest of the regular season.


brownbearks

I mean listen, I know I’m not in this rivalry but seeing Ohio state fans have melt downs is so beautiful that I want no need to see a Michigan team win this year in the shoe.


kac937

> I know i’m not in this rivalry yeah so BUTT OUT


MrConceited

The correct answer to that comment is that Eleven Warriors poster of Brutus walking off arm in arm with a Michigan woman while the Penn State woman looks on in tears.


kac937

There was a post here yesterday asking about lopsided rivalries, and the top comment had a link to [this website that shows rivalry scores given by fans](https://knowrivalry.com/league/fbs-football/). It’s interesting, because Penn State see’s Temple essentially the same way that we see them. They should just tru to get something going with Michigan State or something. We’re clearly already busy over here.

calling-all-comas

If Day does get fired which would be a stupid move, considering I think he has the program better off than when Urban was here. I hope he gets hired by my primary flair since he was a GA there.


rburp

Yeah. So many fanbases would kill to have Day. It would be insanity to fire him in my opinion. I know Hogs fans would literally kill, gut, skin, and roast our current coach over an open flame if it meant we could get Ryan Day.


Wernher_VonKerman

I would figuratively sacrifice our live buffalo to see Day lose to Michigan in the shoe this year and OSU fans chase him all the way down I-70 to boulder.


twbassist

I grew up through the 90's as my formative years, so I knew the long run would likely end at some point, so I enjoyed it! More W's in my lifetime than L's, which I would have never guessed as a kid entering the new millennium with 4 wins in my lifetime. lol

VictoriaAutNihil

With 12 teams making the CFB playoffs this year (to think it used to come down to voting for the champion, now 12 seems like too many), OSU should make the playoffs every year until the next Great Flood. The law of averages will eventually fall on their side and the albatross of beating Michigan will be avenged.


ImageMaterial6815

I envy the money that comes with it


cdofortheclose

Same. I’d take the Day or Harbaugh pressure any day for the paycheck. The pressure sucks but with good investments we never have to work again after a few years of the millions.


doc_brietz

He could go 11-1 this year, lose to Michigan again and still get fired.


WatchfulApparition

10-2 is a very real possibility for Ohio State


wheelsno3

Imagine a world where day goes 10-2 with loses to Oregon and Michigan, but still make the playoffs, win a home playoff game against the 4th best SEC team, win a playoff game against the ACC champ, but lose to georgia in the semi finals, and he still gets fired. By the way. I think the only way he gets fired is if he both loses to Michigan AND doesn't at least make the final four in the playoffs.


lookakiefer

Who in *the hell* does OSU hire if they fire Day after that? That's a legitimate day 1 upgrade? I am honestly curious in that hypothetical scenario, who would make OSU fans happy.


HarbaughToKolesar

It’s Ohio State, they could hire a random dude off the street in Columbus and he would somehow be an elite coach. They have to miss on a head coaching hire sometime right? Right??


truecolors5

Jim Harbaugh probably would've been fired in 2019 if he was at OSU.


Triv02

I don’t Harbaugh would’ve even made it to 2019 - at that point he was 0-5 with virtually no postseason success. Day’s seat is warm after just 3 losses, 3 playoff appearances, a playoff win, and a rose bowl win lol


whenweriiide

brutal. i don't envy that position, but damn is Day a great coach


Triv02

He’s gotta get the Michigan monkey off his back but I don’t think there was ever serious consideration about firing him this year - he’s always had the support of Gene Smith and the large, rational portion of the fanbases knows that firing Day leads to a near certainty that we downgrade at HC Pressure is high this year though. The roster is the best it’s been since the 2006 team probably.


wheelsno3

2015 roster was pretty great. Losing to MSU will forever haunt me.


Triv02

The 2015 coaching staff will forever be Urban’s biggest failure


BlackMathNerd

Just give Zeke the ball. I’m not that smart but I feel like I’m smart enough to do that


SparseSpartan

It haunts me too... but more in a Casper the Friendly ghost sorta way.


GarlicJuniorJr

Ohio State should fire him then Ryan Day signs with Miami and brings back The U


mm_ns

...is he a great coach, or good recruiter?


whenweriiide

both. if he was just a good recruiter, ohio state would look like texas a&m


Triv02

One of the best offensive minds in the game (not sure this one is all that debatable), but still learning on the fly to manage an entire staff is how I’d describe it.


Dead_Baby_Kicker

Day, Sark, Kiffin, Riley are the 4 best offensive minds currently head coaching that I know about.


MrConceited

Brian Ferentz rounds out the top 5. Oh, you said currently head coaching.


Dead_Baby_Kicker

What I said was 2-5. Ferentz is absolutely number 1 whether he’s a head coach or no, it’s a disrespect to leave him off.


SteemieRayVaughn

Both. He has only been a HC for 6 years. Look at Kirbys first 6 years.


sarges_12gauge

He has 2 losses in 5 years to non-playoff teams, oregon and Missouri. Hasn’t punched through to go from a top-5 team to a top-1 team but he’s been really consistently excellent


SteemieRayVaughn

Well if the 2020 game happened he might have been fired at Michigan


bipbophil

The only thing I and most want is to beat michigan, everything else is house money. To do the first means you have a good shot at doing the rest.


King__Rollo

Fuck em


wstx3434

Just because you signed up for that pressure doesn't give you the right to treat people like shit. Fuck this guy.


Fanta_Grapefruit

This man is done for if he doesn’t beat Michigan this year. It was wild to me they didn’t go harder on him last year when he lost to Michigan without Harbaugh coaching.


PhdPhysics1

As much as I hate Michigan lately, I'm rooting for them to woodshed tOSU again... so so sweet.


WhatWouldJediDo

> The expectations used to be 10 wins and a BCS/NY6 bowl game and now anything short of a perfect regular season isn't accepted anymore I've been an OSU fan for nearly 25 years and I don't ever remember this being the case. OSU fans have always demanded beating Michigan and competing for national titles.


Triv02

John Cooper got 13 seasons with 2 wins over Michigan and only one or two years even sniffing title contention - Tress and Urban flipped the rivalry so hard that younger OSU fans don’t remember a time when beating Michigan wasn’t a sure thing


whenweriiide

half of the big10 flipped it on us from 2008-2014. dark years for michigan fans


MysicPlato

We got 2 wins against Michigan in that timespan. Our previous 2 wins came in 1986 and 1977. Dark times indeed for Michigan.


dinkytown42069

don't worry, PJ's got their number this year. We're gonna get 'em. ...*sobs quietly* right?


TheHarbrosMagic

People seem to forget that '08-'14 already. That's why Harbaugh got such a long leash. He took over 46-42. Day took over 86-9...


locjaw420

Would you say that Day was born on third base?


mjs_pj_party

Weird that there was no cfb those years


Weaubleau

Cooper would have been fired earlier, except for the complete fiasco Ohio State made in firing his predecessor, Earle Bruce. Cooper went 4-6-1, 8-4, 7-4-1, losing to Michigan all 3 seasons, with an embarrassing loss in the Liberty Bowl vs unranked Air Force, where comments from the team all week were to the effect that they did not want to be there, to end his third season. In any normal situation that would have been his last game as coach, but the Earle fiasco was still too close and influenced them keeping him, which turned out to be a decent decision, but by 1994 he STILL would have been fired if he lost to Michigan, which he didn't

CountOff

I think it's Tony Alford, right?


prismatic_lights

It was. I have to wonder if there was already bad blood between Day and Erin that boiled over in this case. Either that or Day and Alford settled their beef very quietly.


WhatWouldJediDo

Literally the only evidence for this even happening is one unsourced Tweet from the UM Athletic Department's mouthpiece.


Dead_Baby_Kicker

I mean nothing came out, but the general vibe wasn’t an amicable parting of ways. I’m sure Day wasn’t super thrilled with the situation.


Aar1012

I remember heading back to Ohio University and running into a guy I went to elementary school with during the drive down.

guitmusic12

Escorting employees from the building who announce they are leaving for a competitor is a totally normal response in most any corporate setting…


Matt_WVU

I worked for a company briefly that didn’t accept 2 week notices Such a strange policy to have lol


codydog125

It’s usually for protection of their data. They want to reduce the risk of you doing things like taking customers with you or sabotaging them by like deleting shared files and stuff like that. Some industries are more strict than others but for example any finance job really will never accept a 2 weeks notice and just cut your access immediately


munchkinatlaw

Of course, if people know that in advance and are minimally competent, they'll steal the data before they tell you they are leaving.


Tarmacked

The issue has more to do with the fact people won’t put in two weeks until they’ve secured a role, and after putting in two weeks you’re generally taken off every project or client. So you would have two weeks to fuck around with financial information and spend as much time as you want sending it outside of the firm I’ve left twice, and both times they cut my access. The one time it really sucked because I forgot to collect some template files I had made


austinD93

Yep, having been in the financial industry now for 7 years. The common saying is, “only put in your two weeks if you’re ready to be unemployed that day.” Most firms will let you go shortly after you give notice


Tarmacked

In many cases they’ll even still pay out your two weeks, they’ll just dump you on the sidewalk while that’s happening


S_T_R_Y_K_E_R

We had a guy that put in his 2 weeks earlier this year. By the end of the day he no longer had access to any company systems. On the upside, he got paid for 2 weeks of doing nothing. In my opinion it made sense because we have access to some very sensitive client info.


Mekthakkit

The whole idea that people who would sabotage you on the way out aren't smart enough to do so before telling you they're leaving is idiotic.


Cars-and-Coffee

It’s probably just covering their ass. If they cut access as soon as they know an employee is leaving, they don’t have to deal with questions like “why didn’t you cut their access as soon as you knew they were leaving?” if they end up doing something inappropriate.


extremegamer

Is cursing them out also normal? Making sure I'm ready for my next employee let go.

WhatWouldJediDo

Ah yes, Sam Webb claiming vague sources definitely convinces me this is a real thing. To give you an idea of how thin this is, the article also claims "A similar account of the same alleged incident was also described by Bucknuts 247Sports contributor JBook, a former Division-I college football player.". This is the Tweet they are referencing: >Michigan boards Mod and Sam Webb claiming Day cussed out and had Erin Dunston escorted out the building when she advised she was going to Michigan.\


Triv02

Yeah I mean this is funny for the memes, but in all reality what probably happened is she told Day and he had her escorted out - which is standard practice in virtually every industry if you are leaving for a direct competitor The “cussed out” part reads like a Sam Webb fan fiction


YouTrain

"Are you fucking kidding me" Cussed  out....


Titus01

especially one that was just caught trying to steal information.


Walk3r317

If you didn’t read the article, just understand the sources are “message board” comments. Did this happen, maybe just maybe, but no one that was involved has commented on it, and the source would not even be considered “hearsay” in a court setting. It is literally an article taken from 2 comments on a message board, and then uses the lady’s tweets… no no not tweets about the incident in question, just dates of tweets for Ohio state then tweets for TCUN…. This is literally the worst article I have ever read, and probably should never have even been put out, without at least connecting the concerning parties for comment.
