Ohio State's Keenan Bailey Has Evolved From Intern to One of Nation's Best Tight End Coaches, All in Columbus

Keeping Keenan Bailey in-house has paid great dividends for Ryan Day and the Buckeyes.

The Ohio State intern turned quality control coach turned tight end coach and now co-offensive coordinator has built one of the best tight end rooms in the country. His approach to coaching has continued to evolve and grow over time.

“Probably the most unsung hero on our staff, the hardest worker in the building,” Day said of Bailey during Ohio State’s national championship celebration in January.

While Bailey won’t let any outside claims of his coaching prowess go to his head, he’s molded himself into one of the best leaders of tight ends in the country, and his role is only continuing to expand for the Buckeyes.
