Ohio State's Ryan Day has COVID, will not coach at Illinois
Ohio State football coach Ryan Day has tested positive for the coronavirus, the school announced Friday afternoon.
Day, who has guided the Buckeyes to an undefeated start and serves as the primary play-caller for one of the highest-scoring offenses in the country, will miss Saturday’s game at Illinois.
It also puts him in jeopardy of missing their next game at Michigan State on Dec. 5. Big Ten coaches who test positive for COVID-19 are required to be out for 10 days, according to the conference’s protocols.
Defensive line coach Larry Johnson Sr., who is also the assistant head coach, will be the interim head coach against Illinois. Day is currently in isolation.
