Kerry Coombs has now landed as many commitments as the number of practices he's coached in his return to Ohio State.
Coombs has coached just three practices since he arrived back in Columbus in January, and it could be months before he coaches a practice again. He has yet to coach a game in his new role as defensive coordinator and as the position coach for the Buckeyes’ entire secondary.
In the past three days, though, Coombs demonstrated one of the big reasons why Ohio State paid him $1.4 million to leave the NFL and return to Columbus and the Buckeyes’ coaching staff.
