When Urban Meyer took over as the head coach at Ohio State, he made it clear that his program competed against Michigan in "everything we do," encompassing recruiting and practice to that last Saturday in November.
That competition stretches beyond the Woody Hayes Athletic Center and into every facet of the athletic program. Every Ohio State team starts its year with the goal of beating Michigan.
The 2019-20 athletic season was a good one for the Buckeyes.
Ryan Day's tenure as the head coach of the football team got off to a roaring start, Chris Holtmann welcomed Michigan head coach Juwan Howard back to the rivalry with two Ls and baseball and tennis teams found success too.
