Top Ohio State Buckeyes practice storylines

Another major storyline for Buckeyes football entering Ohio State training camp will be how different will this offense be under Chip Kelly. Former Ohio State wide receiver Brian Hartline was the offensive coordinator last season but he was made the co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach this offseason when Ohio State initially hired Bill O'Brien. When O'Brien left to take the head coaching job at Boston College just a few weeks later, the Buckeyes made waves once again by hiring Kelly, the head coach at UCLA to fill the role.

Kelly won 25 games the last three seasons with the Bruins and was also a head coach of the Oregon Ducks, the Philadelphia Eagles and the San Francisco 49ers. He's widely considered one of the brightest offensive minds in the game and Day coached under Kelly at several stop throughout their careers. So how exactly will the offense change with Kelly at the helm and how will Hartline adjust to a more limited role after it was confirmed that Kelly would be calling plays this season?

Another major storyline for Buckeyes football entering Ohio State training camp is that the secondary is already playing with plenty of swagger. Denzel Burke, Davison Igbinosun, and Jordan Hancock at corner and Lathan Ransom at safety are all experienced and back from last year's squad. Meanwhile, Caleb Downs takes over at the other safety spot after the former five-star recruit made 107 tackles with two interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery as a freshman at Alabama.

In particular, Day singled out Ransom as a leader in that secondary after being a significant contributor in the secondary the past three seasons. He briefly considered entering the 2024 NFL Draft but elected to return to Columbus and now he'll headline what could be the best secondary in the nation. "There's just, there's no messing around. He means business, but he's also got a big heart and he's a great teammate. And when he decided to come back, that was a big deal for our entire defense and our entire team," Day said.
