Why Arthur Smith’s Ohio State Decision Caught Everyone Off Guard: The Surprising Factors Behind His Choice
Ironically, Smith and Ryan Day did not have a strong relationship. According to Smith, they crossed paths at the Ohio State Pro Day, but he was impressed by the quality of the program and by the players Ohio State has developed who are succeeding at the next level.
“I didn’t know him really well personally. We had crossed paths; I had talked to him the last couple of years coming through here on Pro Day, and obviously knew a lot of people that had played for him or worked with him, and had a lot of mutual admiration from afar,” Smith said. “I knew it from afar because I love the history of this game, and I understand how important this place is, especially in the history of football.”
