Brian Hartline Promoted to Ohio State OC amid Ryan Day Playcalling Rumors

Ohio State football head coach Ryan Day announced Friday that wide receivers coach Brian Hartline will add offensive coordinator duties to his responsibilities.

Hartline replaces ex-OC/tight ends coach Kevin Wilson, who left the Buckeyes to become Tulsa's new head coach.

The news comes after ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit reported on the Jan. 2 edition of College GameDay (h/t the Columbus Dispatch's Colin Gay) that Day "mentioned in our production meetings he's going to stop calling plays next year because he needs to become more of a manager as a head coach.
