5. Too-Much Pressure
With high expectations comes elevated disappointment, and coaching for the Ohio State Buckeyes comes with arguably the most pressure of any school in America. Perhaps Ryan Day isn’t fit for the job. Although I believe he is a good coach, a gig with the Buckeyes isn’t for everybody, and his recent stretch against Michigan puts him in the hot seat.

1. You Have to Beat Your Rival
Ryan Day has been incredibly successful in Columbus, going 66-10 in his six years with the Buckeyes. However, he has struggled to win against Michigan, losing four consecutive times. When you get a head coaching job at Ohio State University, you sign up to lead your team not only to win games but also to win the annual rivalry matchup against Michigan. It’s unacceptable to lose to your rival four years in a row.

2. Talent-Heavy Roster Every Year
Ryan Day has what a lot of coaches would dream about in terms of talent on the field. Ohio State consistently brings in high-end five and four-star recruits, setting them up with one of the deepest rosters each season. When you can’t beat Michigan with all that firepower, the blame will be pointed at you.
3. Losing the Locker Room
Constantly falling to your rival can be a gateway to losing the locker room. To prevent any doubt from creeping into the minds of current players and future recruits for the Buckeyes, firing Ryan Day could be a wake-up call to get the program back on track.
4. Body Language on Field
Ryan Day’s body language is telling. Ohio State needs a head coach who stalks the sideline like a fighter, not constantly crossing his arms and head down. His body language displays submissiveness and insecurity, precisely how he coaches in the big games.
