Ryan Day is a really bright dude. A Chip Kelly protege. GAed for Urban Meyer at #UF in 2005. Helped make Andre Williams a Heisman finalist.

Those reports followed one from HornsDigest indicating Tim Beck has been hired to former Ohio State assistant Tom Herman's staff at Texas.
Beck joined the OSU staff two years ago as quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator following Herman’s departure to become head coach at Houston.
Ohio State confirmed Day’s hiring as quarterbacks coach later in the morning (pending a background check) as well as the departure of Beck.
Day has prior experience with Meyer, having been a graduate assistant at Florida in 2005.
He most recently coached quarterbacks for the San Francisco 49ers last season under Chip Kelly. He held the same position under Kelly with the Eagles prior to that.
