Buckeyes Continue to Wait Out Hot Run by Kerry Coombs, Tennessee Titans

The Hurry-Up is your nightly dose of updates from the Ohio State football recruiting trail, keeping tabs on the latest from commits and targets from around the country.

As the Tennessee Titans continue their improbable run through the playoffs to this weekend’s AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs, the wait for Kerry Coombs’ expected return to Columbus remains on hold.

Coombs is Ohio State's top target to be Jeff Hafley’s replacement as the secondary coach and co-defensive coordinator, as first reported by Lettermen Row’s Austin Ward on Dec. 15. Later that day, Eleven Warriors spoke to a source who said Ryan Day was confident he would land Coombs after Day had already made multiple calls to the former Ohio State secondary coach about a return to Columbus.
