Also, how do you think Ryan Day did in reconfiguring his coaching staff following the deep run into January?
Throughout the Ohio State football season, we will be asking and answering questions about the team, the players, and anything else on our collective minds of varying degrees of importance.

Now that the basketball seasons are over for both of Ohio State’s squads, we no longer have to split our focus between the hardwood and the gridiron. So, as we get to a belated fan survey this week, all eyes are on the football Buckeyes as they continue on with spring practice.
So, as we recalibrate our attention on Ryan Day and his squad, we’ve got a couple of questions for Buckeye Nation; one looking forward to the 2025-26 season and one looking back at the new folks that the head coach has added to his staff since winning the national title.
Check out the questions in the sections below, and then head down to the survey at the bottom of the article and have your say. Then, if you don’t see your feelings reflected in the survey options, you can write in your perspective in the comments at the bottom of the page.
Question 1: What would the minimum be for you to consider the 2025-26 football season a success for Ohio State?
There is no doubt that Ryan Day and the Buckeyes climbed to the top of the college football mountain last season. But now, they are back at base camp with everyone else, preparing to start the trek to the summit once again.
So, of course, everyone is going to be wondering whether or not they can do it again, but the question on my mind is whether or not a second-straight title is all that can satisfy you as a fan. Or, will making the semifinals, winning the Big Ten title, or beating Michigan be enough to satisfy you?
Question 2: How would you grade Ryan Day’s offseason staff moves?
What Day had to deal with is far from unprecedented following a national championship season, but losing both coordinators, plus a handful of other position coaches and staffers after playing deep into January does not make for the best situation when trying to put a staff together.
Nonetheless, based on word out of the Woody and early recruiting results, it looks like the staff is settling into place and having some success. Based on what we’ve seen so far, how are you feeling about the job Day did in reconfiguring his coaching staff in short order?
