Ryan Day’s Stance on Kyle McCord

Despite speculation, Ohio State coach Ryan Day did not commit to McCord as his team’s starting quarterback for their upcoming bowl game against Missouri. McCord, who won the QB1 spot over Devin Brown during fall camp, started 11 games this season before the Buckeyes lost the regular-season finale against Michigan. This loss eliminated the Buckeyes’ chances at a Big Ten title and potential playoff spot.
