Make no mistake about it, the Ohio State coaching staff is made up of some of, if not the, best in the business at their individual specialties (except for Bill Davis). So Buckeyes fans should absolutely expect that Greg Schiano, Alex Grinch, and the rest of the defensive coaching staff will find ways to coach ‘em up the rest of this year and address the defense’s penchant for giving up big plays; the defense will undoubtedly get better in the second half of the season.
The only problem is that they probably won’t get a lot better.
