Ex-Ohio State Star Maurice Clarett Calls for Coach Ryan Day's Dismissal After Third Straight Loss to Michigan

Despite initial support for Day, Clarett criticizes the coach's performance against rival teams, sparking controversy among fans and alumni.

  • Former Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett called for the dismissal of current head coach Ryan Day after the team's third consecutive loss to Michigan.
  • Clarett expressed his support for Day before and during the game, but his tone shifted after the loss, criticizing Day for not living up to the expectations of his $9.5 million annual salary.
  • Clarett suggested that Day has only been successful against weaker teams and has failed to deliver against their rival, Michigan.
  • Despite his criticism, Clarett later posted a video asking his followers not to take him too seriously, stating that he's 'really a troll.'
  • Under Day's leadership since 2019, the Buckeyes have a record of 56-7, but have finished second in the Big Ten East behind Michigan for the third straight year.
