Ryan Day Surpasses Knute Rockne for Best Head Coach Winning Percentage in College Football History

Related Topics: Ryan Day, Knute Rockne

Ryan Day now has a higher career winning percentage than college football’s all-time leader in head coach winning percentage.

With 75 wins in 85 games, Ryan Day’s winning percentage of 88.2% has surpassed that of Notre Dame legend Knute Rockne, college football’s all-time leader in career winning percentage with a mark of 88.1%.

Day isn’t yet the NCAA’s official leader in all-time winning percentage, as the NCAA requires a minimum of 10 years to earn a spot in its record book for all-time winning percentage. Nevertheless, his winning percentage speaks to just how consistently great the Buckeyes have been since Day became their head coach in 2019.
