Coming off a national championship win over Notre Dame last Monday, the Buckeyes are feeling themselves, but the feeling couldn’t have been any more different nearly two months ago when Ryan Day, the Buckeyes’ often-criticized head coach, was nearly run out of town.

Nick Saban is enjoying retirement from coaching in college football after leaving the Alabama Crimson Tide last year. He made his decision to end his coaching career last January.

Ohio State coach Ryan Day spent the weekend celebrating the program's ninth national championship, a crowning achievement for a group that had operated like one of the best teams in the country all year and then played some of its best football in the biggest moments with a challenging run through the College Football Playoff.

Former Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback/current ESPN analyst Greg McElroy made it clear this week how he feels about Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day. McElroy is a big, big fan. And he's been a big fan since Day was filling in for Urban Meyer as the interim head coach at Ohio State in 2018.
