From an Article This Guy Nailed It !!

Here’s a list of reasons Day and Ohio State haven’t lifted a banner in Ryan Day’s tenure:

An antiquated strength and conditioning program that shows up in big games with either key injuries or his players being pushed around by bigger, stronger and tougher teams.
Poor recruiting and development along the offensive line and taking too long to identify the problem and replace the coach.
Ryan Day’s play calling, which he said he would give up and then went back on that decision.
Lack of oversight on the defense, a poorly constructed staff who couldn’t recruit or develop players and taking a linebackers coach off the field to empty a special teams coach.
Lack of oversight on special teams, a unit that has cost Ohio State in every big game including against Georgia and Michigan on Saturday.

Which one of these is not the fault of the head coach? Fans and the few honest media members have complained about every one of these issues for months or years before they were fixed. It wasn’t until tragedy struck that Day made changes to his program, firing the offensive line coach and firing the defensive staff. Now Day has another set of problems, some of which he should have fixed last year. So it’s up to him to make these changes this offseason if he wants a chance to be successful at Ohio State.

Fire Parker Fleming — You do not need a full-time special teams coach, especially a bad one. See No. 2.
Hire James Laurinatis as linebacker coach so there is a full defensive staff and he can recruit.
Fire Mick Mariotti — Redesign your strength and conditional program and finally advance into the 21st century.
Fire/Retire Larry Johnson and hire a new defensive line coach who will actually coach Jim Knowles’ defensive scheme.
Fire and replace one of Corey Dennis, Tony Alford, or Keenan Bailey — This isn’t as much about these coaches individually as much as it is about Day. This offense needs an outside influence. Everyone on the staff has either been there since Urban or worked under Day at some point in their career. Day needs to hire an offensive assistant with fresh eyes and no ties to his program and offense.
Give up offensive play calling and move to a CEO role. You hired Hartline as offensive coordinator, and everyone on the staff besides Tony Alford was hand-picked by Day. Trust them to do their job or replace them.
Open up all five offensive line jobs and bring in competition from the portal.
Open the QB competition to Air Noland and Lincoln Kienholz as well as competition from the portal.
Move Sonny Styles to linebacker — It’s clearly his best position and Jordan Hancock is great in the slot. You need experience with Steele Chambers and Tommy Eichenberg most likely off the roster.
Speaking of Hancock — beg, plead, pray, use NIL, anything to get players like Denzel Burke, Jordan Hancock, Tyliek Williams, Mike Hall, TreVeyon Henderson, Lathan Ransom, and Jack Sawyer to stay. I fully expect Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and J.T. Tuimoloau to leave because they can be first-round picks. You’d gladly accept it if they came back, but it’s doubtful.

Are these 10 priorities going to guarantee Ohio State beats Michigan next season or wins the National Championship? No, but I feel pretty confident guaranteeing that if Day does not do the majority of things on this list he will lose four-straight to Michigan and will put a first-year athletic director in the tough position of deciding if it’s time to move on from him.
