This is a good game. Clark Phillips for Utes is a baller. Can’t guard Smith though

Yeah Phillips was committed to ohio state and flipped to Utah. Salt in the wound today!

I can’t wait until we have a defense! Knowles starts tomorrow! 🏆

Congrats on the Rose Bowl win, Yolo!  A great comeback!  Penn State crapped the bed vs Arkansas.  No defense.  The QB kept running keepers, even I could see coming...and the defense couldn't stop it.  Not happy that Clifford is returning for another year.  Oh well.  Michigan didn't represent well in the final 4 either.  So...I expect Ohio State to recapture the Big 10 title next year.

Thanks - we have no defense either. Hoping our new DC makes some big changes. We need players too - gotta hit the portal. Will be interesting to see the preseason rankings for the Big Ten…

Yolo, if Chris Allen comes back to school next season (he just might after suffering a bad injury and missing the season),  Alabama will be bursting at the seams with excellent OLBs.  Again, IF he comes back, they will have at least 5 OLBs that would start anywhere. In fact, even if he does not return we will probably lose one of them, and they are all great players.

It would be a reversal of fortunes from this season. Alabama probably would not have made the playoffs without Jameson and I can't stress enough how talented these OLBs are.

Nice — needed safety help. 

 

Sorry @ArdmoreRyno  - this kid must have a great relationship with Knowles.

Is it Sept 3 yet??? I cannot wait to see this new defense. Ohio state only needs an average defense to win a title with this offense. These 4 and 5 star recruits just need coaching. Welcome Knowles!!!!

Nothing but love for the kid. OSU's (my OSU) secondary the past couple of seasons have been outstanding. There are several future NFL players on that defense. Wish Tanner the best of luck and hope he and coach tear it up in the B1G!!!

Had to happen….

 

 

Stud was a good guy but they got pushed around in the biggest games. Heads were going to roll. Looks like Justin Frye from UCLA the likely replacement. 
 

stud also not known for putting a lot of time into recruiting

More action…

 

Austin Ward on Letterman Row says that these moves mean Coombs is gone and the Buckeyes have one too many coaches on defense. The expectation is that Al Washington is leaving too and Knowles may coach the LBs himself.

Does this mean Coombs is gone?

 

 

Rumor is that Coombs is going to retire

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Al get fired. I don’t think he’s a bad coach in general but I think an upgrade is needed at a place like Ohio state and Knowles is empowered to have who he wants on his staff.

Al Washington may be a good coach and a good person, but his resume at Ohio State for recruiting* and on-field results is terrible.  Not sure we can call him anything other than a bust. 

 

*Although I'll give him credit for recruiting LBs in Ohio for this current class.

Sounds like Coombs and Washington are gone. I truly appreciate how Day is not emotionally tied to these guys. He brought Al to Ohio state having worked with him at BC, and we know how connected Coombs is to osu in general.

Surprised to see JBook call out coach Mick the other day. It did seem like the defense was playing in quicksand at times this year, but I assumed it was scheme and not conditioning. Could there possibly be anything to this?
