He's going to stay far away if he's smart. NFL is where he wants to be. He's not going to be like Belichek and collect checks.

The New England job could open up and he can have that but I'm just trying to keep him and every other defensive coach away from the Jets if possible. The problem with Day is coaches don't last long at Ohio State if they can't beat Michigan and that loss this year was completely inexcusable.

I don't think Vrabel will be picky. But think he wants to stay in NFL in some capacity.
 
Bill Belichick's presence as North Carolina's head coach is already making a big difference for the roster as Thursday standout true freshman offensive lineman Aidan Banfield withdrew from the transfer portal, 247Sports has learned.

Banfield, a likely 247Sports True Freshman All-American, started nine games for the Tar Heels this season and posted a 62.8 PFF grade, one of the highest grades of an true freshman interior lineman in the country.

The 6-foot-3, 300-pounder was ranked as the No. 6 overall interior o-lineman in the portal.

Interested in this board's view on Day at ohio and how the playoffs impact his future. I like Conner O'Gara a lot and respect his opinions. He was on The Next Round earlier today and said Day had to win it all or else he was out. Not just beat Tennessee. Win it all.

That seems a bit much but I think the aftershock, and it's still that, of this latest Michigan debacle has a long and very impactful shelf life.

I'm curious what our Michigan people think?

The Michigan game was a bad look all around for Day and the program. I personally don't think he has to win the natty or get to the title game, but I think it would be in his best interest to beat Tennessee.
 
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina released the initial terms sheet of Bill Belichick's contract on Thursday following a Board of Governors meeting held in the afternoon.

Belichick's deal spans five years with an annual salary of $10 million (with a $1 million base salary and $9 million in supplemental income). The first three years of the deal are guaranteed.

Belichick can receive bonuses of up to $3.5 million per year. He can receive a bonus of $150,000 in any season the team wins eight games, and that number increases by $50,000 for each additional win up to 12. A 12-win season would give him a $350,000 bonus.

An appearance in a conference championship game will earn Belichick an additional $200,000, and a conference championship victory would give him an additional $100,000.

His postseason bonuses, for which he'll be awarded the greatest of the following amounts if he reaches these marks, include incentives for a non-College Football Playoff bowl appearance ($150,000), a "Tier I/Elite" bowl appearance ($350,000), a CFP appearance ($750,000), a CFP quarterfinal appearance ($1 million), a CFP semifinal appearance ($1.25 million), a CFP national championship appearance ($1.5 million) and a CFP national championship victory ($1.75 million).

There are also bonuses for North Carolina's finishes in the College Football Playoff poll. He'd earn $250,000 for a top-25 finish, $300,000 for a top-20 finish, $375,000 for a top-15 finish, $425,000 for a top-10 finish and $500,000 for a top-5 finish. A conference coach of the year award would give Belichick $100,000 and a national coach of the year award would give him $250,000, and he would receive the greater of those two amounts.

Belichick can earn up to $150,000 if the team's GPA is 3.0 or higher, and up to $200,000 if the team's APR score is 1000 or higher. He will also receive an annual expense account of $100,000.

Also included in the term sheet is a $13 million budget for revenue sharing, $10 million for the assistant coach salary pool, $5.3 million for the support staff salary pool, $1 million for the strength and conditioning staff and up to $100,000 for Belichick's relocation.

Would love that feedback from UM folks.

I think this year's Michigan game was a bit more than a bad look. It was an unbridled abomination - ohio at home, a significant (putting it lightly) mismatch in talent, matched only by a mismatch in NIL funding, on top of continued failure in past games, exacerbated by incredibly bad coaching, choke jobs by multiple ohio players, and on, and on.

If there was perfect storm for the absolute, ultimate failure by ohio in THE game that seems to matter more to its residents than life itself, then I'll ask for a better example. I cannot imagine it but guessing BAR would love to provide. I bet he can't.

Day seems to be a dead man walking. Fire him and at least it allows for plenty of time to give Gus unlimited back rubs without time constraints.

Listen, OSU said the same thing about Jim after 2019.

Now though, you have Bjork trying to de-emphasize The Game moving forward. What type of reverse psych is this??

Day had a prolific offensive going his first 4+ years. Well, when Michigan went back to their roots, they were able to stop that enough to get convincing wins in '21 and '22 by winning the trenches.

2023 OSU tried to bring back more of a 90s/00s style OSU team (imo). I still think the '23 game in A2 decided the national championship. Still, they came up short as Michigan was just a bit tougher.

Fast forward now to present day and this guy wanted to win in an exact fashion last month. He was stubborn. Once the 4th quarter hit, Moore and Michigan had him/them right where they wanted.

I think this school is going to keep overthinking this. We could possibly be seeing the modern day John Cooper era.

So, I'd like to see him stay.
 
UNM will announce a new HC tomorrow assuming his team loses tonight. I'm not naming any names. What the hECK?

Generally highly thought of. Although for an offensive coach, last year, with McCoy at QB and Hatten at WR when the 2023 team played the best teams it wasn't Eck's offense that led the way, instead it was Idaho's defense that controlled the action. Tough to judge the offense this year with all the injuries. One criticism of Eck is his in-game decisions on 4th downs, FGs to take or pass up and trick plays. Timing and play call being of utmost importance, Idaho often failed at both on these types of plays that can hinge games one way or the other which often left Idaho fans a little sour.

The criticisms I've read, is his offenses should be better at the FCS level than what they are.

I'm fine with the hire. Let's face it, UNM is bottom 5-10 FBS job. And after this exodus of players, it's pretty much gutted now. He's built up Idaho in his 3 years from a 4 win team to the playoffs.

So he's had experience in building a reclamation project.

Honestly, I don't know who else they could've got. Vigen was all set to take the job last off-season when Mendenhall came in last minute and stole it from him.

You couldn't go with an OC or DC with 0 head coaching experience. The job is too big for that.
 
Yeah I only watched New Mexico week 0 and pretty much watched all or parts of Idaho every week. Fans should like his personality and his honesty. The risk / reward can balance out, just might not have the best sense of when to pull the trigger on those special plays.

These days I suppose it is just as important who comes with the new head coach. Idaho fans were not sad to see McCoy leave last year because of Layne. If Layne follows Eck to NM, they will be much more worried about who fills that role next year.

Sure thing LB Eck will come to NM I'd assume. Good player.

I like it.

Norfolk is not a completely awful team, bad yes, but it's relative to who they are playing, they weren't that bad this year. Played really well vs FAMU in the opener. The MEAC is only a 6 team conference now, and South Carolina State and NC Central were head-shoulders better than everyone else this year, but Norfolk was a 1 pt OT loss away from going 3-0 SU vs the other three teams and they were a solid play at times this year vs teams like them, looks like I count them as 5-4-1 ATS vs FCS with a 19 and 22 pt victory (were crushed by both SC State and NC Central as was everyone else). I do not keep up with the transfer portal yet, but they had some kids on that team that hopefully will be there next year so they have some experience to work with. Some serious alpha male HC's in that league though. I like Vick added to the mix. Doesn't matter high school kids weren't born when Vick was a super hero, he is a local legend, people don't need to see legends play with their own eyes. That is only half the battle though, can he coach? Campbell had nationally ranked terrific recruiting classes about every year, and Campbell fired that head coach (Mike Minter) last year because he couldn't get those terrific recruiting classes to actually win games.
 
One of the common denominators of the best teams this year was consistency at the top of their staffs. This is one reason why it will be hard for any program to stay at the absolute top of the sport year after year. Coaches (and players) leave after great success. I'm not saying Ohio St won't be good next year, they have too many good players, but I think it's fair to doubt their chances of a repeat

I think it’ll be a portal absolute slam. Like what Ole Miss tried, LSU is trying after the buy out by Michigan.

If they don’t fix the money it’s MLB bro

Intriguing for Michigan fans but I wouldn’t be thrilled if I was an Ohio State supporter but I guess they can continue to buy great rosters.
