One of the biggest story threads of this offseason has to do with a change in leadership in the coaching staff at Ohio State with Ryan Day replacing the “retired” Urban Meyer. A pair of Michigan assistants left Ann Arbor to join Day’s staff in Greg Mattison and Al Washington, which has made things a bit more heated between the two schools, especially with how last year ended.
Head coach Jim Harbaugh played it somewhat cool earlier this spring, saying there were no hard feelings, but that they would not exactly be sending each other Christmas cards. Safeties and Special Teams Coordinator Chris Partridge was a little less political about it and spoke strongly about how he and his team feels about what happened.
