Ohio State and Ryan Day have agreed to a two-year extension that will keep the coach in Columbus through the 2028 season, the school announced Wednesday.
Day, who wrapped up his third full season at the helm for the Buckeyes in 2021, will receive an increase of $1.9 million in annual salary, bumping his compensation from $7.6 million annually to $9.5 million with a base salary of $2 million per year. The contract is still subject to approval by the Ohio State University Board of Trustees.
Since taking over in October 2018, Day has kept Ohio State at the forefront of the conversation in college football.
