The sigh of relief comes because he is gone and his brand of self entitled arrogance can bloom in someone else's garden. In the beginning we wanted great leadership and instead found out that we got a baffoon. That's the issue, his tone deafness and his total inability to understand how important it was for him to lead and protect the B1G institution(s). What do the old cowboys say, "all hat and no cattle." That's KW. Everyone hates a fraud and we are better because he is gone. I will not be following him  in his work in Chicago. However, when their stadium falls into the lake, I am certain it will be because of him. Good  riddance.

I think about this a lot.Mostly while doing yard work. While I don't follow other teams injury reports/history, I am reasonably certain that the Buckeyes have had more misfortune with their best players than any other team. A great "what if " is to speculate where we would be if none of this had ever happened. All Healthy players playing at the height if their ability, NIL during tat gate and Chris Carter era, etc. Whatever went wring, magically fixed and those players are on the field having their best years. What a juggernaut, even more than we currently are, could we have been? I like to think the Bucks would have the most all time wins and highest winning percentage and would have relegated TTUN to U of Chicago status. What could have been. Those are nice dreams.

Exactly. They do it to us because we'll take it. We're the NCAA's favorite whipping boy.

"A whipping boy was a boy educated alongside a prince (or boy monarch) in early modern Europe, who supposedly received corporal punishment for the prince's transgressions in his presence. The prince was not punished himself because his royal status exceeded that of his tutor; seeing a friend ..."

Maybe with Day stepping away from calling plays (maybe?), he'll be more in tune during the game with what the defense is doing and direct the lHead Coach of the Defense", to cut the gambling shit out when we got a decent lead. Still feels like a kick in the gut.  I hope giving up '5 big plays a game' is not the game plan for the Buckeyes future.

My question is why does the booth have the final say? Perhaps a change could be that the onfield ref works with "the booth" to review and perhaps change the call, with further video evidence from other angles. But the final call remains on the field. That would restore accountability to the process and eliminate the shadowy dude in Tuscaloosa making the game changing call.

I question the running play. I know Day thought it was a good call, but why? I'd still like to know what made him think that. We had a little over 100 yards rushing for the game, the line was killer in pass pro but he tries for the "home run" against that defense in cover 0? Ballsy call if he does it, because everything is stacked against. He didn't. Day should have been setting Ruggles up for a makable kick. I feel bad for the Kid, he was money in his range. Day should have done more to get Ruggles inside his range and had he done so, we'd be looking forward to next  Monday.

I sure wish Day had tried to get a few more yards and better position the ball for the Ruggles kick. His explanation of running the ball was weak IMO, even if CJ supported it. Did Day  really expect to break through their cover 0 at that point in the game? Had we had any success doing that in the game up to that point? Yea, it would have been glorious to see Hayden break that one off, but geeze why take that gamble? Just get a few more yards and get the ball to place Ruggles feels comfy. Let him kick it and we go home to dream about TCU. Instead this . . .

Created the 4 point swing that would've been enough.
