Ohio State coach Ryan Day hasn’t had a press conference since the season-ending loss in the Cotton Bowl, and his next one hasn’t officially been scheduled yet. But Day has been incredibly busy leading the offseason for the Buckeyes and will have plenty to discuss when he does get back in front of a microphone. Television’s Adam King has no shortage of questions when that moment arrives, and he previewed that possibility on TalKing Tuesday with Austin Ward.
