Ohio State head coach Ryan Day finalist for Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has been named a finalist for the 2019 Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year.

Ohio State has another award to track for its memorable 2019 college football season. Head coach Ryan Day has been named a finalist for the 2019 Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year Award.

Day joins Eliah Drinkwitz of Appalachian State, Sonny Dykes of SMU, P.J. Fleck of Minnesota, Bryan Harsin of Boise State, Mike Norvell of Memphis, Ed Orgeron of LSU, Matt Rhule of Baylor, and Dabo Swinney of Clemson.

I know what you were thinking — where is Jim Harbaugh? Sorry to disappoint.

It has been truly remarkable what Day has pulled off in his first year as head coach, and one in which he replaced a legend in Urban Meyer. In fact, there’s no way he could have done a better job. Ohio State is undefeated at 13-0 and has beaten every single team on the schedule by double digits this year.

The recognition keeps piling up for Ohio State players and coaches, but the ultimate prize they’re dying to take home is the national championship, so there’s still more work to do.

The Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year will be announced on Friday, Dec. 20, and will be presented on Jan. 11, 2020 during a reception hosted by the Allstate Sugar Bowl in New Orleans.
