Seven weeks after the Cotton Bowl, Ohio State’s 2024 coaching staff is finally complete.
The final piece of Ohio State’s coaching staff fell into place on Thursday when Ryan Day moved to promote James Laurinaitis from graduate assistant to linebackers coach. That promotion came six days after Day hired Chip Kelly as his new offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, which followed Bill O’Brien’s departure – just three weeks after he was hired as OSU’s initial offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for 2024 – to become the head coach at Boston College.
Ohio State now enters the 2024 season with five assistant coaches on both sides of the ball.
