Ryan Day already had a lot on his plate for the upcoming Ohio State football season.
Having been promoted to offensive coordinator this offseason, while already being the Buckeyes’ quarterbacks coach, Day was arguably Ohio State’s most important assistant coach, as he was tasked with rebuilding and leading Ohio State’s offense around a new quarterback.
Now, though, Day has even more responsibility on his plate after being named the Buckeyes’ acting head coach on Wednesday, when Urban Meyer was placed on paid administrative leave while Ohio State investigates what he knew about domestic violence allegations against former wide receivers coach Zach Smith.
