What a Difference a Day Makes

“Fifty-one days ago, Ryan Day stood frozen as the victorious (again) Michigan Wolverines planted a flag in the middle of Ohio Stadium. All around him were tears and jeers and calls for his job. Players fought. Pepper spray wafted through the air. It felt apoplectic then.” It probably feels better now. Day’s Ohio State team are national champs after a win against a game Notre Dame team.

+ Earlier this season, Ryan Day hired security at his house because of threats after Ohio State’s loss to Michigan. (Sidenote: He has a remarkably high winning percentage.)

+ Meanwhile, in the age of NIL, money reigns supreme. After all that, the richest school wins the college football playoff.
