KNOW THE MAN WHO LEADS THAT TEAM
This guy seems stable.
The One Who Wears Khakis was hired by That Team on December, 30 2014. He has led TTUN to a record of 8-3 (.727) or 9-2 (.818). Prior to taking the head job at our rival was the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers (2011-2014), Stanford (2007-2010) and San Diego (2004-2006). The Khaki wearer is 66-30 (.688) or 67-29 (.698) as a college head coach.
That Team is 9-2 this season. The losses were to Utah and Michigan State. You can throw the records out the window when it comes to The Game, but it is comforting to know the Buckeyes are 10-1 against TTUN since 2004.
