Ryan Day Hopeful for “Somewhat Normal” Spring in an Offseason That's More Important Than Ever After Challenges of 2020

If all goes according to plan, Ohio State will have a full allotment of 15 spring football practices culminating with a spring game in Ohio Stadium.

As we learned in 2020, things don’t always go according to plan during a pandemic. There’s still the possibility of a COVID-19 outbreak within the team forcing the Buckeyes to alter their practice plans at any time. Ryan Day is optimistic, though, that the Buckeyes will mostly be able to proceed forward with business as usual in 2021.

“We’re planning on having a somewhat normal spring where we can have six weeks of a lead-up of working in the facility and then having a normal spring practice schedule,” Ryan Day said Wednesday.
