My understanding is that Kelly's offense is basically the same that CJ used in his time at OSU. It did change to a power Gap offense in 2024 but that as I understand impacts the offensive line more than the quarterback. Stroud should be extremely comfortable in it.
So Nick, go get Ryan Day!
So, let me see if I understand this. IN 2023 CJ ran a college playbook and produced one of the greatest NFL seasons by a rookie QB. In 2024, Slowik changes to an "NFL playbook" that averages 7.5 points in the 2nd half and did not adjust and run some of the concepts that made them successful in 2023?
Here you go and why I hope Ryan Day might appreciate a call from Caserio

Not a chance he's leaving his OSU HC job to be an NFL OC. The paycheck is quite a bit different.Here you go and why I hope Ryan Day might appreciate a call from Caserio
Ryan Day's increased role in offensive game plan has led to potent passing attack | FOX Sports
FOX Sports' Michael Cohen explains how Ryan Day's increased role in Ohio State's offensive game plan has led to a more explosive passing attack through two College Football Playoff games.
Did you read how I address that? Most of his 2024 money was endorsements and he could receive that just as easily in Houston.
Maybe this offseason Stroud will bother to hang around and learn a new offense than traveling the world. Or maybe it's too much to ask him to learn something new.
Maybe... But OSU is a religion in Columbus, and probably more widely in Ohio. As much as I love the Texans, I don't think their popularity in Houston (and definitely not Texas in general) can compare to OSU in Ohio and Columbus in particular...
Hey TB, what do you not like about this post and what's untrue?
I heard about this from somebody else before the draft. It's why I didn't think Caserio/Ryans would draft Stroud. How am I trashing CJ? Everything I said is true and I even finished the post on a positive note because CJ/Kelly would be a perfect match for CJ since he wouldn't have to learn a new offense.
Have you forgotten how quickly fans revolted against Ryan Day when Ohio State lost to Michigan? I agree that it's extremely unlikely that Day will leave OSU. However, he has reached the pinnacle in college football with this year's win. Maybe he's ready to move to a different challenge?
Hey Earl, what's not true about my post? Look what he did last offseason. Trip to Africa, Kardashian's etc....
You are not making any sense whatsoever and you’ve heard wrong. But as usual you come on here trying your best to find ways to crap on players you didn’t have on your draft board. Remember all the crap you were spewing when we drafted him? Like I told my kids you can’t delete none of that stuff you post of these sites. In reality there’s no take backs.
Nope.. but you can tell everyone that your account was hacked. That's what idiot celebs do.
You've got to understand the rules before you can break them.
I don't mind bringing in college coaches, but if we go with a guy like this we need to be prepared for another learning curve. NFL defenses are not like college defenses.
I thought it was substantiated back around draft time it was true. That S2roud got into it with some OC in a predraft interview & it was highly speculated it was with Slowik. After the draft we just assumed it wasn't Slowik. But it's a fact S2roud got into it with somebody.
Zerlien confirmed what I heard and that's not crapping on CJ.
He is this.
I wouldn’t pigeon hole Nixon as just a “college coach”. He has tons of NFL experience. My concern is lack of marquee experience. Syracuse OC is different than Ohio State OC for example.
I think you and TB both have good points. But I think you rub people the wrong way with how you go about criticizing CJ. Especially after you painted him as a dumb thug all throughout training camp his rookie season because of the Mulughetta connection.
Knowing what we know i don't see how you get Cj doesn't accept coaching.
Well, he's a RB coach & been a RB coach for a long time. Indicative of the issue "they" were speaking about when the Culley thing was brought to light.
I can imagine the QB meetings with Jerrod. Because as a QB my 1st course would be through Jerrod. I'm just thinking Jerrod was as frustrated with Slowik & the OL coach & it was something that bonded them together.
Hartline didn't become OC until after Stroud went to the NFL. Then Buckeye OC Kevin Wilson was a college offensive lineman whose forte was the running game. During Stroud's last year at Ohio State, Wilson carried 3 phones. Personal, Ohio State related, and one for organizing his next job as Tulsa HC. Looking at that, it's no wonder CJ spent most of his time with Ryan Day, the architect of the offense.
Like I said earlier those lazy journalists be making crap up and a few on here falls face first into that stinky crap. They refuse to fact check just like you just done. So simple
Because CJ didn't get along with his OC (Wilson) in college and his OC in the pro's. (Slowik) Who know if he's going to respect the next OC? Is he going to hire his own personal choice for OC.
It's not just that. They are looking for dirt to support their Stroud narrative.
Lance isn’t one to make up news.
Stroud was visibly pouting all season and checked out when talking to Bobby on the sidelines.
Yep. Jobs are on the line sooner than later if Stroud can’t accept coaching.
If rubbing people the wrong way means saying that I heard the same things Zerlien told us before the draft about CJ, then so be it because some posters are way too sensitive when it comes to CJ. They dont like the truth that CJ just might be hard to work with because he's 0-2 when it comes to getting along with OC's and it should make them wonder how CJ gets along with the next OC hire when things dont go CJ's way, which you know things dont always go smoothly. The level that some posters will go too and deny what a respected national/local journalist tried to tell them was going on behind the scenes tells me they would rather bury their heads in the sand than accept the truth.
Zierlein told the same story just prior to the 2023 draft. Remember, he had Tyree Wilson and Will Levis going to the Texans in his mock. Lance hasn't broken news on the Texans since Ryans came to town. He just doesn't have the contacts there he once had.
This is all I've been trying to say and that he's 1-3 in the getting along with his OC's dept.
Not only that. They saw his body language all season. ALL season.
Bobby just got fired after NO ONE thought he would. It’s not that hard to see Stroud is the reason. Mulugheta is in Hannah’s ear.
Saying this is what I heard before the draft and the only guy that CJ would listen to was Day isn't looking for dirt. I'm not looking for Zerlien to support what I heard before the draft. I heard what I heard and there's no narrative there.
Come contract David the man from parts we cant talk aboubt around these parts is going to break it off in Hannah/Cal. Good luck with that.
Just becuase no one, and I question this, outside the building saw this coming, doesnt mean CJ was the architect. Kirby has buttoned up greatly since Nick and DeMeco showed up
It's like dealing with a child.
What???
CJ was getting rocked by the blitz, and Slowik had no answer. People have selective memory, but Stroud was holding private practices in the offseason with his receivers, getting Diggs familiar in the offense. Everything was positive until the Vikings, then the Packers game. That's when things began to turn. No answers for stunts, no hot reads for the blitz, continually putting Kenyon Green on the field. No adjustments. No answers. Here we are. If someone had to go, damn straight it was going to be Bobby Slowik.
Um, imagine a 23 year old acting like...well a 23 year old. The horror!
