Summary
Jonah Booker believes Ohio State made the correct decision in promoting Ryan Day to head coach, even without conducting a national search.
However, JBook says that Day must do a complete overhaul of the defensive coaching staff.
JBook joins Dave Biddle for his usual Friday visit to discuss that, plus:
* What is our overall confidence level in Day?
* Are we buying into any of the conspiracy theories that Urban Meyer's decision to retire really wasn't his decision alone?
* Is there any chance Dwayne Haskins wins the Heisman Trophy tomorrow night?
All of that and more on the Friday extravaganza.

| 0:29.0 | Welcome to the Bucknots Morning Five here on Friday, December 7th, 2018. |
| 0:33.6 | I am Dave Biddle. |
| 0:34.4 | There I have to be joined by Jonah Booker for his usual Friday visit. |
| 0:39.0 | Jay Brook, we're going to talk a lot about Ryan Day taking the reins and just everything that went into that. |
| 0:44.0 | Let's start with, you know, there's been a lot of debate about this. |

| 0:50.0 | What are your thoughts on Ohio State and Gene Smith not conducting a national search before naming Ryan Day the head coach? |
| 0:57.0 | You okay with it? |
| 0:58.0 | I'm okay with it. I think it was the right move. I thought Gene's logic was found when he said that the foundation at Ohio State is rock solid. They have a |
| 1:09.6 | pretty good thing going on there, especially with the support that they have off the field. |
| 1:17.1 | You got a 12-1 big 10 champion that was very close to making the playoffs. |
| 1:22.8 | So if you bring in an outside coach, |
| 1:25.6 | they're gonna wanna come in and blow everything up. |
| 1:28.2 | And I don't think that was needed, |
| 1:30.6 | which you essentially have in Ryan Day and Jean Smith and the Boucher's feel like he is the next up and coming offensive guru in the likes of Lincoln, Riley, and |
| 1:43.4 | Sean McVeigh for the Rams. |
| 1:45.4 | Now, if he becomes that good, then Ohio State fans |
| 1:49.0 | are going to be absolutely thrilled. |
| 1:51.1 | But with today's NFL and college football, the way the game has changed more towards |
| 1:57.0 | the offense, you want to be able to have a guy who's very knowledgeable as far as developing offenses and that's what you have in Ryan Day. |
