In turning over play-calling duties to new offensive coordinator Brian Hartline this spring, Ryan Day hoped to take more of a holistic approach to presiding over his team.
But that doesn’t seem to have lasted very long.
The longtime quarterbacks coach, play-caller and offensive guru said he tried to take a step back from the offense during the first spring practice, but quickly found himself gravitating back to his bread and butter.
“The first half of practice I was, and then before you knew it I was down there where I was most of the year last year,” Day said with a laugh after the first practice.
