Fourth Wiseman has been close to the team multiple times this week--checked in with this report....
"Very very loose group of Buckeyes this week. Day's approach to this game has been playful but direct----but is certainly in contrast to how Meyer came across on Michigan week.
Last week the WHAC was on lockdown and there were a lot of "one v one" and "best v best" competition. This week is more celebratory and fun. Lots of team v team stuff, competitions, races, and other stuff pitting guys against each other in a variety of interesting ways.
Day has had an amazing connection with this group all season long---and seems to know precisely what buttons to push. This week he is playing up the "embracing the moment" aspect of The Game. Reminding guys of the history of the rivalry and of the players that have come before them---but also making a strong emphasis on enjoying every moment of it and not being so uptight that you lose the opportunity to embrace all that it means....
they've been practicing some new "trick" plays(won't go into them here)---but it feels like Day is going out of his way to keep his team loose heading into AA...
will be very interesting to see how it plays out---but Day has been drawing aces all year long---no reason to believe that won't happen again this weekend...
can't wait to see---very confident and loose group of Buckeyes...."
